If you read my blog regularly, you probably know I am involved in +running and developing the Norwegian +TV channel Frikanalen. It is an open channel, allowing everyone +in Norway to publish videos on a TV channel with national coverage. +In addition to distribution on RiksTV and Uninett, Frikanalen is also +available as a Kodi addon. The last few days I have updated the code +to add more features. A +new and +improved Frikanalen addon was just made available via the Kodi +repositories. This new version include the possibility to browse +videos by category, as well as free text search in the video archive. +It will also now show the video duration in the video lists, which +were missing earlier. In addition, an experimental link to the HD +video stream currently being worked on is provided, for those that +want to see what the CasparCG stream look like. The alternative is +the SD video stream, generated using MLT. CasparCG is controlled by +our mltplayout +server which instead of talking to mlt is giving PLAY instructions +to the CasparCG server when it is time to start a new program.

+ +

By now, you are probably wondering what kind of content is being +played on the video. These days, it is filled with technical +presentations like those from NUUG, +Debconf, Makercon, and TED, +but there are also some periods with +EMPT TV and +P7. + +
