Not able to stream off of Google Drive??

Postby shepardsreaper » 16 Feb 2020 07:22

Hey, recently updated my phone to 13.3.1 and suddenly am unable to stream any video from my google drive

Replicated the same issue on my iPad (hasnt been recently updated), so im assuming its a bug, but I wasn't able to get into the login page to submit a ticket, anybody got any ideas? My only work around is just downloading episodes individually

Same here. Worked perfectly for years, but now stopped working after iOS update.

It seems the issue was not reported, so I created a new ticket https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/24243. Hope this will draw some attention.

Having a similar error on my end. Error message "Your input can't be opened." "VLC is unable to open the MRL 'https://<long url here>' check log for details. I'm able to browse files, but not able to stream and use playback options (speed--for learning from guitar/piano vids). Let us know of a fix at the next update. thx!

Olivero54: your VLC version is way too old. You need to update to the latest release for this to work.

It seems that Google Drive access_token expires in 60 minutes.
When I watch my video(120 minutes long), if I don't seek, I can watch until the end of the video.
But if I seek after 60 minites, VLC Player finishes by error.
I think I must pass new access_token to VLC Player.
Can I pass new access_token to VLC Player?

[VLCGoogleDriveController.m]

Code: Select all

- (void)streamFile:(GTLRDrive_File *)file { NSString *token = [((GTMAppAuthFetcherAuthorization *)self.driveService.authorizer).authState.lastTokenResponse accessToken]; NSString *urlString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/%@?alt=media", file.identifier]; VLCPlaybackService *vpc = [VLCPlaybackService sharedInstance]; VLCMedia *media = [VLCMedia mediaWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:urlString]]; [media addOptions:@{@"http-token" : token}]; VLCMediaList *medialist = [[VLCMediaList alloc] init]; [medialist addMedia:media]; [vpc playMediaList:medialist firstIndex:0 subtitlesFilePath:nil]; }

Why is the 100 folders limit in Google drive still an issue up to this day? I see the last post was in March about this... thanks

To be honest, because no-one found the time to work on it. If you can help, this would be very much appreciated.
