[solved] Latests Media Handler - Skinning an updating window or control (1 Viewer)

[Rob Hexenmeister]

Good evening

Can anybody think of a way of making a window reload/refresh or a skin control reload/update after a TV server stop/start event occurs?

On my Basic Home window (35) I have labels which show upcoming recordings and active recordings using Latest Media Handler properties, but of course these don't update. Once they are rendered, that is that.

<label>#latestMediaHandler.tvrecordings.scheduled1.title</label>

and so forth...

Many thanks for any assistance.

LMH Updates its properties as needed when it receives any messages from Mediaportal. For example, the end of the movie playback. Or the beginning or end of the recording of a TV program.
To monitor, you need to watch the log file in debug mode.

Very interesting, thank you. But I am not sure that this answer resolves the problem of wanting to update the skin controls on Basic Home upon a change to LMH. Once rendered the skin controls don't seem to change.

it means there is no update event, because the properties update happens all the time.

They don´t change if you stay in BasicHome and wait for a change
They are actualized every time you enter BasicHome

They don´t change if you stay in BasicHome and wait for a change

I add forced update of LMH sheduled properties upon receipt of a notification from the TV client.
