GUIPropertyManager values (2 Viewers)

[doskabouter]

When I have a show recorded, and during recording, I start to watch it from the beginning, there is no property in the GUIPropertyManager giving the current program name and channel. Is this by design, or am I overlooking something?

I have also noticed this as my mini display only shows the time played and time left rather than program info if the recorded program is still recording. If I play the same recording once its finished the program info shows correctly. I'm sure it never used to be like that but not sure when the change happened.

Can you show me a screenshot?

 

[doskabouter]

Screenshot? You mean from the quick-watch screen of visual studio?

 

[regeszter]

I mean a screenshot where do you want to see this information.

I want use this to show on my lcd-display, so I could technically make a screenshot (foto of my htpc) but I doubt that it's relevant here

Do you want to get the currentChannel and the CurrentProgram from a plugin?

 

[doskabouter]

Exactly. Sorry if I wasn't clear in the first place...

Try to use:

TvPlugin.TVHome.Navigator.CurrentChannel
TvPlugin.TVProgramInfo.CurrentProgram.Title

Well, apart from having to include a number of extra references, it doesn't work.
TVHome.Navigator.CurrentChannel nicely holds the current channel, but TVProgramInfo.CurrentProgram is null, so no title available...
