[solved] MPTvScheduler - Android client for MediaPortal and TvServer (3 Viewers)

[regeszter]

There is a hidden feature in 1.5.3 for supporting parental control (PIN code for TV groups) using my custom TVE build with custom MPExtended from here.

• By default the PIN protected groups and the all channel groups are disabled (and all recordings from protected channels). -> Protect the children devices (hide adult contents)
• Press 3 times on the about text and a new hidden setting will be enabled. You can enter the pin code for protected groups. So you can access all groups.

1.5.3 Final is available on the Play Store:

• NEW: Added music playlist support. (Create, delete playlist, add/remove songs to/from playlist.)
• UI changes.
• Bugfixes.

I've been watching this thread for a while and I'm so pleased that this area of MP is getting so much love, albeit android not apple, so
I will be replacing my iPad with an android compatible one soon and I just wanted to thank you, regeszter and all involved on such great work.
Cheers

Yes, I agree it's nice that someone has the time/energy to improve the mobile clients

Out of curiosity, what are you missing one the iPad side apart from support of the not yet released ios 11...

@regeszter and @johanj I'm in the process of porting MPExtended's TVAccessService to a pure TVServer plugin. That should make it possible to use remote apps with MediaPortal 2. But i want to make it as lightweight as possible, so my question is what API calls do you really use in your apps and if there's a need for the the "SortBy" and "Filter" parameters?

 

[regeszter]

what API calls do you really use in your apps

These needs for TV part + streaming.

"SortBy" and "Filter" parameters

I use sort, order and filter in some cases.

The latest MPExtended is in my GIT repo.

I need a volunteer who have Android 8.0 and able to install the apk from file. I added PIP support (new Android 8.0 feature) but I cannot test it on a real device.

 

[johanj]

A quick check for "TVAccessService" give the below and filter with sort and order is used in some of them. For MediaPortal iViewer we also need WifiRemote in order to control playback on the MediaPortal client. Streaming to client works but is not the main use-case and other media types are just as important as the tv.

FreakyJ worked on porting MPExtended and WifiRemote to MP2 and he came quite far, he kept the same interface as in MPExt and WifiRemote. I tested quite a bit with MPiV and several parts worked. But that was before the MIA-rework and later he didn't have time finish the project. For MPiV this project is much more useful compared to only TV-server control.

Where can I get an installable update for mpextended?
I'm using 0.6 beta 4 and get the message to update to beta 6.
