Tanks Joe.Unfortunately With this solution i lost ö ü ő:(
It's not possible the character code transform (lower, upper 4 bits or dec char code )?

Example with standard character table :

bin 1110.0100 -> dec 228 -> µ
bin 1110.1111 -> dec 239 -> ö

<TransformcharFrom>
<string>dec(228)</string>
</transformcharFrom>
<TransformcharTo>
<string>dec(239)</string>
</TransformcharTo>

    XML files are like HTML, so you can use the same way of using escape characters.
    HTML escape characters have the form (where nnn is a decimal)

    For example:
    Code:
    The character A can also be written as ampersand, doublecross, 65, semicolon  (I needed to write it in words, otherwise your browser also translates it to an A

    You can find the complete list of HTML escape characters here, but I'm not sure whether they also apply to XML. I'm guessing that if the XML file starts with
    Code:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    that you need to use the UTF-8 codepage character number.

    Maybe someone with better XML knowledge can comment on this?

    ive get following error, when i press Setup:

    Failded to locate assembly ' processplugins.xmlSerializers, Version 1.0.2177.20399, Culture=Neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'

    Note that the configuration program must be executed from/reside in the MediaPortal folder, the execution will now end.

    But the Display is running before.

    I setup my PC totally new, and now doesnt work

    i use SED 133x USB 1.2

    I think you are running the 0.2RC2 version from the website?
    There was a bug in it that caused the plugin configuration to crash.

    Use a later CVS version (second half of januari or later). That should work OK.

    You can find the newer builds here

    Make sure you set the settings exactly the same than in LCDHype.
    The Comm. Delay settings are called Execution Time in LCDHype.
    Check also the advanced settings.

    If this still doesn't work, try copying the LCDHype driver for your display to the plugins\process\lcddrivers folder and see if that helps.

    I read in the LCD Hall of Fame (link on first page of this topic) that there are problems reported with the SED13xx displays: the text appears to be too small...

    Flickering Display.....

    Hi again Joe...

    The only differens the "text mode Comm. Delay" makes is that the time between the flickers changes.

    In the datacheet for the display i found "Flickerless Write = +53H".
    Is it possible to add that value somehow?

    Is it possible to get a "global" recording xxx mes

    Hi,

    Read the Wiki page and used the search function (no usefull results) to see if the question came up before. I didn't read all the 36 pages :) So sorry if the question is already answered :)

    My case doesn't have an HDD led (MCE601) and pretty quiet, so I don't know if anything is recording if I haven't got the screen open. It would be great to have a global message (active for all screens), that lists the current recording(s). I don't know if this info is available from the DB, but it would be great!

    Do I need original IMon S/W running?

    I've been through the thread and forum and am unsure as to whether I need to have the IMon application running when I use MP and the integrated plugin. Will the MP plugin drive the IMon VFD without the original app? Or do I need the IMon app running in order for the MP plugin to work.

    I do know that if I stop the IMon app, the remote stops working.

    Using the external Display Plug-in, I am unable to get it to drive my Imon usb VFD. It only displays the message "Plug-IN". I've config the Plug-in for Imon VFD and USB.

    Does anyone have any ideas?
