HTPCInfo plugin v1.15.0 for MediaPortal 1.3.0 and higher (1 Viewer)

[ninja 12]

Hi ,
I'm trying to get your plugin working . I keep getting the following message -
"Missing or invalid file:"

MP 1.0.2 , win xp sp3. I don't use MP for TV.
The HTPCInfo Diagnostic Tool says speedfan is working properly.


The error log says something about "TvControl"


Below is a copy of the error log -

2009-08-29 00:10:26.843750 [ERROR][MPMain]: Error initializing window:HTPCInfoPlugin.HTPCInfo Could not load file or assembly 'TvControl, Version=1.0.2.42500, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies.

In my system (MP 1.0.2 , win xp sp3) the plugin works fine

I don't use MP for TV.

Not the dev of this plugin but I believe it needs tv server to work properly. My tv server is kinda down atm (no cable, for the time being, cable co. screwed up) and couldn't get this going either.
Micropolis already told me a while back that's the cause of that error (or at least one of the causes)

---EDIT---

Just tried this new version and for me it works now (even with my tv server not setup) so I guess it's something else, sorry ninja12

----EDIT2---

So now I got it working I was able to skin this baby. First attempt @ creating a monochrome version. This will be part of upcoming monochrome 16:10 release (whenever I feel like there have been enough changes to have another release) but first I need to test a bit more.
See screen attached. StreamedMP 16:10 version will follow

p.s.
I changed the skinfile to make use of groups (stacklayout), this way it's easier to change positioning for stuff. I think Micropolis should change his default skin to incorporate this but no pressure, just see if you agree.
I think the way I skinned it is a bit more easy to change (at least positioning wise). Could even take it a step further using define tags for positioning of labels directly and calculating the values x/y position from that.


----EDIT3----

I think I found a little bug, or at least I have a couple of issues;
1) I have temp sensor defined in HTPC config as "Core1" in speedfan it's called the same. It however shows me temps that are incorrect (such as 0 or -3)
2) The handling of voltages is ignoring everything that's behind the comma. I guess it's handled as an integer.

----EDIT4---

I fixed issue 1, it was getting the wrong values because I configured the plugin wrong. The rounding problem is the only little thing that remains.

----EDIT5---
Files depricated, look here

And there you have it, streamedmp version, see attachments

it seems, that both MediaPortal configurations does not support some TVServer libraries (TvControl.dll, TvLibrary.Interfaces.dll), which are necessary to use this plugin. The best workaround is to copy the files from the attached archive to your local MediaPortal directory (e.g. c:\program files\team mediaportal\mediaportal) and restart the application.
The libraries can be download from the first post of this thread.

Cheers, Micropolis ;-)

Your most welcome! Happy to do it and kinda completed my whole system info part which contains yours (client), my speedfan (monitoring server, xap), sysinfo (client) and fanatic monitor (monitoring client). So for the awesome plug, keep up the good work!

Warning: Use the attached libraries ONLY, if MediaPortal v1.0.2 is installed on your HTPC.

I copied TvControl.dll, TvLibrary.Interfaces.dll from your post.

Still getting "Missing or invalid file:"
