MediaPortal can't crash because of a skin. It can crash because of a plugin

Well actually that's not correct. Depending on a plugin (even an inbuilt one) a missing control or a circular focus handling* might very well lead to crashes or at least strange behaviour.


* like 1. focus button in action group 2. fade out action group 3. focus listcontrol if action group is't visible and is not empty 4. Listcontrol is emtpy - use default button 5. default button does not exist since it is hidden with the action group

If this is true, then I think there's room for improvement in error-handling. The function/class handling the action should return nothing and an error should be written to the log. If the thing just crashes without any logging it's gonna be hard to find the bug.

I have enabled the RSS Ticker and configured a news feed, however all I see on the home page is:

#RSSFEED

and

#CONDITION
#temp

just as this screen grab shows:-

Any ideas?

All fonts are corrupt in the version .11 except CustomCaps.ttf. I had to manually remove them from \windows\fonts and then install StreamedMP since the two packages share the same fonts. I then installed the new "custom" font from MediaStream and all was good. I wish you guys would provide download links for old versions

Oh...well, the fonts are actually allright but I have had problems installing with the MPI in Vista, however it should work in XP (it did here and on my other XP box).

Use the zipped file and copy the fonts over manually.

The fonts in this skin and StreamedMP look the same, but mine are edited to support nordic characters (æ, ø, å).

I know the devs are aware of the Vista + MPI + fonts problem :sorry:

Hi, Have you a link to the version of mptv series plugin which is compatible. I have searched for MP-TV Series v2.0.3260 as per the first post of this thread but cannot find it. I did try to use the last svn but this does not work.
many thanks
