What do you mean with that???

What do you mean with that???

The screenshot I uploaded above - the top line is produced by control id 27 in the TV Guide xml I just uploaded. I can't see anything wrong with it. The variables look right.

You must not use id 27!
All extra text or image not predetermined in the screen must have id 0 or id 1!

I have just created a new control with id 1 to do the same job, and it produces same result - active.count definitely not working. I will have to spend some time on this tomorrow. Thank you for all your help. I still think it probable that I have a glitch in my set-up

What if you copy my control directly into your screen (adapt position and font and replace #scroll.wrap with |

Good evening,

Same result unfortunately.

active.count still displays as #latestMediaHandler.tvrecordings.active.count as if it is not defined.

active1.channel and active1.title are displayed properly.

I really think this has to be something to do with my setup. I am not in a position to do a clean re-install though unless someone can test for me if the MiniDisplay plug-in works with the latest release, because someone in this house relies heavily on the LCD display on the HTPC case because of eyesight issues.

What version of LMH are you running?

LMH 2.5.0.89

I think therein lies my problem. I am on 1.6.2.0. So thanks both for your help, I will pause this thread for now and come back to it while I work out what to do next.

The problem is we have a family member who relies on MiniDisplay and I don't know if upgrading the set up is going to spoil compatibility with that plug in. The set up we have now is very delicate and has taken years to get right and I don't want to lose the features that we need. MiniDisplay is a simple plug in but vital for us. I will put out a new thread asking if anyone can assist with testing it on a later installation.

Thanks again everyone
