Problem with Update 24.3.2008 Release 1.0

I am using Vista 64bit with Media Portal RC1 Refresh

I used the following link to download the plugin
http://forum.team-mediaportal.com/at...ter_plugin.rar

Problem #1

The 4th / 5th / 6th "Section" text entry boxes (used in example jpeg as TV - Full Screen / TV - Guide / Teletext) are limited to 1 character per box.

Problem #2

If you press TAB key you don't TAB to the next box.

Guys, I think this behaves a little bit strange. When I navigate directly to sections using this plugin, escape key doesn't function as it should within current page but rather navigate back through sections I have opened. It is like opening section over current screen everytime I use direct jump.

Am I doing something wrong or this is by design?

Thanks for any info.

I think this is a "normal" behaviour from mp... the plugin does only "jump" to the selected screenfile... nothing else.


thx

Is it possible to jump into the "Exit" Menü?
Where "Standby, Hibernate, Restart" located?

[mrbert]

I may be missing it, but I see aly an empty table in shortcutter in the config.
I can enable the plugin and config it.
But how to progress?

Must I enter codes foor all activiteis by hand?
Schould the plugin capture activities?

Thanks Bert

[chrisonline]

Yes you must enter the codes you need!
Examples are in the screenshot at the first post!

[mrbert]

Hi chris,
OK thanks.

I also have the shoutcast plugin in the main screen enabled how can I find the codes for that one?
I guess I need the skin ID?

[chrisonline]

In the configuration screen of the plugin you see on the right 2 links!
Click on them and you see a list of codes ;-)

How to find the control id???

Just follow the 2 links in the config menü like chris has described, or open the skin file from the plugin and take the id from there

Example from the my alarm plugin:

...\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\skin\BlueTwo wide\myalarm.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<window>
  <id>5000</id>
  <defaultcontrol>3</defaultcontrol>
  <allowoverlay>yes</allowoverlay>
  <define>#header.label:850</define>
  <define>#header.image:alarm_logo.png</define>
  <define>#header.hover:hover_my alarm.png</define>
  <controls>
    <import>common.window.xml</import>
    <control>
      <type>group</type>
      <description>group element</description>
      <layout>StackLayout</layout>
      <posX>113</posX>
      <posY>129</posY>
      <control>
        <description>New button</description>
        <type>button</type>
        <id>3</id>
        <posX>113</posX>
        <posY>129</posY>
        <label>617</label>
        <onright>50</onright>
        <onleft>50</onleft>
        <onup>17</onup>
        <ondown>4</ondown>
      </control>
      <control>
        <description>Sleep timer Button</description>
        <type>button</type>
        <id>4</id>
        <posX>113</posX>
        <posY>174</posY>
        <label>859</label>
        <onright>5</onright>
        <onleft>5</onleft>
        <onup>3</onup>
        <ondown>3</ondown>
      </control>
    </control>
    <import>common.facade.xml</import>
  </controls>
</window>

thats all!
