Opened thread, it was locked by accident

 

[breese]

Fresh install.... I am also including a bat file that after doing an uninstall of MP2, it will remove the ProgramData\Team MediaPortal folder....

Weather plugin is broken.
After entering a city or zip code, it never gives you the list of places.


TV is broken.... Guide and Slim Guide all works. Click on a TV show, asks if you want to watch, record, etc.
Click record, nothing happens.... Timeshifting does Not start....

Client Error:
[2016-08-18 11:27:24,466] [5968 ] [AMQ 'RuntimeType'] [DEBUG] - StatisticsRenderer: Registering KeyBindings on IInputManager
[2016-08-18 11:27:24,474] [5976 ] [Thread35 ] [WARN ] - ServerConnectionManager: Could not synchronize local media item aspect types with server

Going to do a full reboot and test again... Will also be testing Movie imports and playing.

 

[breese]

Reboot did not help the non-playing TV channels

Movie import went well.
All types of movies play... mp4, avi, iso, dvd/video_ts

While in the Movies screen, you can delete most items like mp4 movies, iso movies do not even get an option to be deleted and DVD\Video_ts get the option to delete but nothing happens when you do choose to delete it.
Also, nothing for Delete is logged on the Server side where the movies are stored and shared from.

The Watched Items icon is removed not matter how short of time of playing the movie is.
Each of these was about 1 minute


Correction about Deleting.
There is one logging message and its more of an error in the way MP2 tried to delete the file/folder

[2016-08-18 12:05:28,153] [985241 ] [InputMgr ] [ERROR] - Error deleting resource 'F:\MPMovies\We Bought a Zoo\'

@Testers @Developers @Designers

I have updated the first post with a new download link. The reason are two introduced bugs in TV part and Win10 theme. They are corrected now, so this build should be working without known issues

 

[breese]

Fresh Install.....

Weather is now configurable
TV now plays channels and Icons are downloaded.

Sub Menus like Shutdown and Movie options are not displaying properly



Error trying to delete a DVD image movie
[2016-08-20 06:34:48,849] [523779 ] [InputMgr ] [ERROR] - Error deleting resource 'F:\MPMovies\Fantasia 2000 [tt0120910]\'
System.IO.IOException: The directory is not empty.

at System.IO.Directory.Delete(String fullPath, String userPath, Boolean recursive, Boolean checkHost)
at MediaPortal.Common.Services.ResourceAccess.LocalFsResourceProvider.LocalFsResourceAccessor.Delete()


No option to delete an ISO movie.

Suggestion:
When going into Screensaver mode, is it possible to move the Media Portal 2 logo around to help with burn in?

@morpheus_xx Not sure, but could be a bug. when navigating (path marked) in the channels upwards, the upper channel (red marked) is not reachable, instead the focus jumps to the newly created group button.

@morpheus_xx Can you please take a look. Just checked the latest build and the problem is still there. It's skin indenpendent ...

 

[HTPCSourcer]

@morpheus_xx : Thanks, I'll get back to testing

@breese : The "delete" issues could be due to a bug that @aspik and I discovered while working/testing the DokanY packages. The temporary files don't get deleted and that's the reason why you see the mesage "folder not empty".

 

[breese]

Actually, it does not transverse the sub-folders on DVD's
f:\MPMovies\We Bought a Zoo\VIDEO_TS\ All the video and other files for this DVD

Yeah the default behaviour in c# is to throw an exception if you try and delete a folder that's not empty, I expect that the default method is being used.
