iPhone interface for MediaPortal (iPiMP) - original thread (now closed) (9 Viewers)

Anything special to take care of during installation or just take the iPimp 3.5.0 and be happy?

nothing special, just install it

Any word on 4TheRecord support progress? I have been awaiting this since you started

Just downloaded this and tried and first want to say thanks for a great plugin. But I got three problems;

1. When I press Now Playing in iPimp, MediaPortal crash.
2. The volume-buttons do nothing for me since I use a non-default sound card for MediaPortal.
3. When I search for a song and press the tracks name nothing happens, but it plays when I press "Play tracks" above.

Number two is my biggest problem unfortunetley. Does anyone else have this? (I searched this thread but found none)

Also two ideas for features,
1. That Home-link goes to a default MediaPortal client
2. That I can make a iphone-bookmark to a menu inside ipimp, for example the Remote Control.

Thanks again!

I won't be adding 4TR support - too much other stuff to do with iPiMP. When this release is ready though I'll be posting the code onto google code so perhaps someone can jump in and work on it?

2. iPiMP just replicates an MCE remote in MP - do you have a remote? Does that work?
3. Music search is being rewritten in the next couple of weeks, I'll look at this then.

Thanks for the suggestions, the two suggestions however won't work with the WebApp.Net framework I use, all navigation deeper than the first page are ajax calls returning xml - so to link directly to them would just give you a screen of text. Sorry.

Thanks for your reply, the first issue is fixed. The second one I have is probably not a iPimp issue, so I have suggested it as a feature for MP. I tried with a MCP-keyboard (ms 7000 wireless) I have and it changes the sound for the wrong sound card. Nothing strange there, I can not change that and it is not really a problem. But iPimp only changes the sound-effects for MP it seems, so they seem to not use the same settings...

(edit: fixed?) However I got another strange thing happening. I start a playlist with iPimp and stop it MediaPortal show it as stopped but the sound keep playing. I can also play music/stop music at the same time as the playlist keep playing at the same time. This a stream within a playlist. Edit: Now I can not get the bugg to happen again, maybe it was just temporary or something...

In the future I will get a tv-card and I think I then will have great use for this plugin. Thanks again

Cannot schedule recording..

Hello!

Very nice plugin! But- I can't schedule any recordings. This is what the error.log of the TVServer says:

2009-09-12 03:03:08.664476 [9]: Exception in Schedule.Persist() with Message insert into Schedule ( idChannel, scheduleType, programName, startTime, endTime, maxAirings, priority, directory, quality, keepMethod, keepDate, preRecordInterval, postRecordInterval, canceled, recommendedCard ) values ( ?idChannel, ?scheduleType, ?programName, ?startTime, ?endTime, ?maxAirings, ?priority, ?directory, ?quality, ?keepMethod, ?keepDate, ?preRecordInterval, ?postRecordInterval, ?canceled, ?recommendedCard ); select LAST_INSERT_ID();

Any idea what could be the problem?

What version of MP are you running?

Also can you read the troubleshooting section of the wiki and post some logs.

Hi!

I'm using MediaPortalSetup_1.1.0_BETA-1_rev23491 and the database is on MySQL.

I attached the logs.

Are there any other MP1.1.0 users out there? If so, do you have this issue. I can't test just now as I don't have 1.1.0 myself.
