I just installed RC4 and now MediaStream does something funny. Whenever I go back to the main menu, i see the background of my startup highlighted menu item, then it disappears and I briefly see another background image and then the screen goes black. I see the buttons on top and the menu bar, but without text. When I press up or down on my remote the text and images appear again. Does anybode experience the same thing?

I just installed RC4 with the latest MediaStream.dll and I am still getting the same issue...

To all of you getting a black screen in RC4, the error shown below is probably caused because the normal (and hidden) menu on the home-screen isn't used to go to a module - therefore MediaPortal throws an error, which it shouldn't, at least not in my opinion:

Error recalling last active module - invalid module name '-1'

I'll try and fix it, even though I didn't break it And I thought that MP was in feature-freeze...oh well.

Thanks pilehave!

Other than that 'quirk', mine is running very smoothly.....

Thanks Pilehave! Almost everything works perfect. I may have another RC4 issue, but this is probably a MyTVSeries issue. After watching an episode the fanart and episode thumbnails disappear, it didn't do this in RC3.

Nice skin!

Perhaps it has been asked many time before, but Im new in this thread and found nothing while searching,
I would like to widen the "filename" of myVideos, but I cant find the correct entry in the .xml for that (myvideos.xml I take it)

Anyone know what I should change?

The "filename" ? It really depends on what view etc.. A scrshot of what you want widened would make things easier =)

Sure, here it comes:

Open up common.facade.video.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- 
This file should contain the facade view
-->
<window>
  <controls>
    <control>
      <type>facadeview</type>
      <id>50</id>
      <control>
        <description>Movie List</description>
        <type>listcontrol</type>
        <id>50</id>
        <onleft>2</onleft>
        <onright>2</onright>
        [COLOR="Red"]<posX>756</posX>[/COLOR] <-- To move the list to the left decrease that number
        <posY>317</posY>
        <height>360</height>
       [COLOR="Red"]<width>xxx</width>[/COLOR] <-- Add this line to set your own custom width after moving it to the left(If needed)
        [COLOR="Red"]<textXOff2>500</textXOff2>[/COLOR] <-- You might have to play with that number to get the "size" text in the right place after you've moved the facade.
        <onright>2</onright>
        <spinPosX>1249</spinPosX>
        <spinPosY>690</spinPosY>
        <spinAlign>Right</spinAlign>
        <spinColor>ff006698</spinColor>
        <spinCanFocus>no</spinCanFocus>
      </control>

 

[MrMel]

Hmm, I dont have items at all in my common.facade.video.xml, should I add the whole block?

Closest I got is this:
<control>
<description>listcontrol</description>
<type>listcontrol</type>
<id>50</id>
<onleft>50</onleft>
<onright>2</onright>
<unfocusedAlpha>100</unfocusedAlpha>
</control>

Is that the one I should edit?

 

[Darre]

Are you sure you are in that exact xml? Sounds like youre in "common.facade.video.imdb.xml" or one of the others.. Tho I'm not sure, Pilehave might have changed things in later updates, I just have the initial release on my dev PC.
