REQUEST: Resrrect the MyShowTimes plugin - Page 4

carmenm · 2008-04-26, 12:43

Tried a manual update, tried with the new svn snapshot but still doesnt work :s any help?

I almost managed to get it to work. Now it doesnt crash MP anymore but. The problem is paths, i first installed it in one directory and then decided to change the location. That s when it stopped working. I had to go back to the first location to make it work. i hope you ll manage to correct this.

Now my problem is that it tells me that it cant find moviedata.xml, and that s normal because i dont have such a file. When is this file supposed to be created? What do i have to do to create it?

I have a feature request. I am french and when mtsa gets movie titles it gets them in french, the consequence is that when it looks for trailers it doesnt find them because it looks for them with french title. As you get imdb informations, could you make so that it looks for trailers with original titles? this would be great

Thanks

EDIT: finally got it to work by settings settings first setup to yes in MediaPortal.xml and do all over again. i also add to do a call of mtsa manually out of MediaPortal but now it works!!!!
There s just my feature request now

Thanks for that great plugin

Hello carmenm,

Nephilim

I can try and look for it. About the imdb info, can you get the original title? it would solve a lot of trailers not found

I have an odd issue - in the MySowtimes plugin, if you play a trailer for one movie (Iron man in my case), watch the trailer and when its finished you'll get back to the Iron Man details page.
now play another trailer (Speed Racer) - watch it - when it's finished you'll be back at the Iron Man details page again???
Odd!

i really like how you've got this working well again, i'd like to know if it's possible, that if you only have one cinema, for it to always show the show times straight away for each movie without having to click show times for each one and then select a cinema. sorry if im just being stupid, but i couldnt see the option anywhere?

thanks!

I haven't tried the new version yet, but one thing that kind of annoyed me with the original was that I couldn't set a number of cinemas. Where I live, I am in between two cinemas and I would like show times for both to appear, but since they are in different locations I can't have both showing.

Is this still the case?

Thanks,
Marcus.

No !!
Use the | character between the locations of the cinemas: (Shift and '\')

I use the location as:
CITY1|CITY2
To get the 2 local cinemas to me

You can then simply tick the ones you like (I believe the first one you tick will be the 'Active' one)

woohoo, thanks for that
