LogoManager 1.0.0.3 [27-11-2022] (7 Viewers)

You can manually download the logos from http://mediaportal-uk-logos.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/TV/Simple200/. If you need more than a few, you could check out the repository.

can't do anything with the "channel groups" setup

that means that Argus doesn't implement TVE3 interfaces.
As neither Edalex nor me use Argus (i am quite happy with TVE3), i can't even give you any timeframe when (if ever) we will support Argus.

@fatt_fill It would be good if you could make a post on the Argus TV forums, it might get the attention of one of their developers.

Now we have 8 repositories supported!
Need moar.

Looking at the other logo projects on Google Code, the Israeli one looks like it would very easy to add to LogoManager, if @yoavain is interested.

I think we can do it in future. All we need to know is how to get channel and channel groups lists from argus db and where to save them. And what dlls to use ofc.

Yeah, potential and current repositories are https://code.google.com/hosting/search?q=label:Logos+Label:mediaportal&projectsearch=Search+projects
and also one project by @Nephilim found on github https://github.com/chemelli/Mediaportal-Italian-Logos
But main problems that mosy of them are not 200x200 logos yet.

Hi guys,

here is a design for Titan..

To users:

-extract the .zip file, and locate the 'Titan' folder into: C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\thumbs\LogoManager\designs

Sorry for slow response - indeed I'll post in the Argus forums now and link them across to here. Seems like a very useful tool this (which hopefully can be merged into the core product at some point). I mainly use Argus because of the series link capabilities but I think MP has come along way in that area in the last few years - it's mainly out of habit now (and +1 familiarity ;-)).

Thanks all!

 

[Edalex]

The only lines dependant on MP TV Server are:

IList<ChannelGroup> tvGroups = ChannelGroup.ListAll();
IList<RadioChannelGroup> radioGroups = RadioChannelGroup.ListAll();
selectedGroup_TV = layer.GetGroupByName(_selectedGroup);
channels = layer.GetChannelsInGroup(selectedGroup_TV)
selectedGroup_Radio = layer.GetRadioChannelGroupByName(_selectedGroup);
channels = layer.GetRadioGuideChannelsForGroup(selectedGroup_Radio.IdGroup);

So just need to know how to make them same for argus - get all tv and radio groups and get channels belonging to specific group. It's pretty simple actually if you know argus dlls and methods.
Honestly, also we doesn't think that Argus is popular among MP users
Maybe a poll?

The last commit was on 28 December 2012, so it seems inactive.

But main problems that mosy of them are not 200x200 logos yet.

@mrspock uses 200x200 for this Spanish pack as does @kiwijunglist for the New Zealand logos.

 

[Edalex]

Yeah but kiwijunglist had some cons against plugin and complexity of maintaining logo repository as I remember .

 

[Jasmeet_181]

Yes but he also asked for better instructions as an alternative, which shouldn't be too hard to come up with. There are already plenty of online guides on using TortoiseSVN and Google Code like this one, there are mapping tools and examples in the first post and Bribbon posted some some info on how he adapts the logos here, some of the repos also have wikis or information in their threads.

@fatt_fill received a response on the Argus TV forum, the links to the documentation for their API are all local though.
