LatestMediaHandler v1.6.1.0 (4 Viewers)

Hello!
Every Fanart Handler version that has no LatestMediaHandler work well. I'm back on version 2.2.5.515 now. Absolutly no problems! With LatestMediaHandler v0.0.0.1 it helped to uncheck the latest music option in the config. With v0.0.0.2 (test.rar) even unchecking does not help and playing music got completely crazy...

Maybe you can install StreamedMP for testing?
I think dangerzone had exactly the same problem as me.
Thanks!

Hi,

Thank you for your feedback. Have tried with StreamedMP and the same MP SVN version as you have but no luck reproducing the problem so far. Will continue to test. With version 0.0.0.2 (test.rar) did it help if you disabled the LMH plugin in MP configuration?

best regards

Hello!
This really seems to be a hard one.
Yes, to disable LMH in the plugin config helps.

Hi,

First page is now updated with new versions of FH and LMH. A few bugs are fixed. Some optimizations are done. The new FH version also supports the new movie id property that MP 1.2 latest SVN versions have implemented (thanks Deda).

FanartHandler (version 2.2.6.520)
LatestMediaHandler (version 0.0.0.3)

Holzi:
I finally managed to reproduce the error you and dangerzone reported and I think/hope the new versions of the plugins resolve the issue. The issue was in FanartHandler but also affected Latest Media Handler.

That is good news! =)
I will test it on monday!
Thank you very much!

You also got a solution for this?
"One more question/issue I have. I want to use Fanarts from the Scorecenter folder shown in Radiotime and Music. They show and cycle fine as long as there is no artist/title info in Radiotime. As soon as there is one the screen turns into black. (maybe FH looks for the artist fanart, but since there is none in scorecenter folder the screen goes black! Download fanart for artists is disabled) With this behaviour I can't get the fanarts from scorecenter to show and cycle in the music view at all. Because there is always artist and title info I constantly get a black screen instead of fanarts from scorecenter folder."

Maybe it has something to do with: <define>#usePlayFanart:Yes</define>

Hi Holzi,

If you only want the random images from scorecenter and not fanart for now playing music the "<define>#usePlayFanart:Yes</define>" should be removed. But why do you not use the fanart you can put in the Skin Fanart\UserDef\Music?

Hey!
Thats also an idea. =) I will test a bit next week.
Thanks!

Hello!
I tested the new version and it works like a charme now! No more bad surprises while playing music.. =)
And I also figured it out how to get the scorecenter fanart images to work proberly in music and radiotime.

One more question:
Should the Latest Series/Movies/Music Covers showing in the BasicHome window be cached? Because I think the Movie Covers weren't. Menu stucks a little while scrolling the first time after a MediaPortal start to movies in basichome. After that first time, scrolling goes smooth.
Didn't notice that short stuck in tv series & music I think.

Thank you!
