LogoManager 1.0.0.3 [27-11-2022] (11 Viewers)

[Jasmeet_181]

I thought the names might have been the problem so I looked at a few screenshots and YouTube clips of Saorview receivers. The RTÉ channels do have their accent marks, which aren't there on Sky and I've now added them to the mapping file. TV3, TG4 and 3e seem to be correct though.

@Vasilich and @Edalex, had a bit of a eureka moment over the weekend, having finally gotten some time to spend on this. My whole HTPC has been a bit of a slow burner which might explain why it seems that the TV server was the source of my issue. Once I installed the latest version of MP, version 1.5, and re-scanned my channels and installed the version LogoManager Vasilich specified everything worked perfectly!

I'm very sorry if I wasted your time with this but I'm very pleased with the results. Thanks so much for your efforts...

thanks for reporting back, JJDoherty. BTW, part of thanks goes to @Jasmeet_181 as LogoPack creator (i assume you have used his british pack?)

So for now we have no opened issues, and only one feature to develop before release.

Please mention (esp. @bribbon and @azzuro ) that our plugin isn't tied to any specific logo resolution or aspect ratio - everything depends on designs used. You can even rescale existing logos to any design size. And these often mentioned 200*150 logos are just the matter of creating appropriate logo pack and design (sample design "Modern 4x3" is already available for the last plugin version).

Thank Vasilich
i think it's time for you to release to stable version.
the few issue related to glow / outer glow is not a problem.
more users can use it - more feedback you have.
i'm little busy with real life. but hope found time for help .

 

[bribbon]

The rescale and border feature is a great thing. it could greatly facilitate the work. if....

....you had the opportunity to manage and upload logos directly on a website, regardless of the logo-packet creator. only this would greatly relieve me of a lot of work and greatly increase the sense of logo manager. for example: OnlineVideo-plugin for "stream sources" website.

Perhaps we could take code and knowledge by @offbyone
but I'm quite certain that it means much labor. for HTML and Skin-design I can help maybe.

some thoughts about the web concept:

• one place for all the logos (website)
  
• per country package: 1-3 administrator for quality assurance (getting a email if a user upload new logos to this paket)
• user could upload new logos (perhaps with templates / rules for the quality claims)
• Database entry per Logo: Logo-ID, Name, Name variants, Country-ID (are there other Country's with the same Logo?), upload-date, creator name, quality confirmed by admin (to freeze or release)

cheers

No, sorry.
Multupackage and multigroup grabbing is not ready yet.

 

[bribbon]

sorry, I barge in again and again in the discussion!
I can unfortunately not enough English to express myself better.

wherever, thanks all for your great work!!!

P.S.: in the webpage case, i can stop working on swiss logo package. this will be great

 

[Vasilich]

if you had the opportunity to manage and upload logos directly on a website, regardless of the logo-packet creator

I'll wait for a comment/thoughts from @offbyone as i have almost no experience with web programming/hosting/etc..

 

[offbyone]

So we are looking for a webserver + webpage that will host logos for TV channels, where anonymous user can upload logos, admin users may manage logos and that has maybe a small public api so plugins (MP1, MP2,...) can discover the logos and download them.
Summarized correctly?
I'm sure I can throw together something - not pretty but working in a few days, if we can specify the needs detailed enough.

Hope I can get to the bottom of this, I've now been having issues with the following channels and getting a logo for them, all of which contain special characters:

• 5*
• 5* +1
• BET:BlackEntTV
• more>movies
• m>movies+1

I've attached the log files generated.
