Source code

As i said before, huge thanks for a lovely plugin!

I just wonder if there is any chance that u may share the source code for version 1.0.2? Im not a programmer, but my only reason is to change the name of the plugin in home menu to "Mina Musikvideon" (swedish).

I guess i could manage that with MS visual studio .net 2003...or at least i could try ;)

Thanks in advance!
Martin

    you can have that a lot more easy by editing your strings.xml in your used language folder of mediaportal. there i edited "radio" to be "radio & internet tv"

    Thanx for the advice, but thats not possible, and i have already tried to do that way. Unfortunately the plugin-name seems to be hard-coded and therefore there is no string such as "My Musicvideos" or even "Musicvideo" in either the default strings.xml or the swedish one.

    Thats why i guess recompiling the source is the only solution...

    I wish the dev could be here a little bit more often :( Hard to reach him...

    This is a great plugin! I do have a few problems with it on my setup though...

    * Changing the bitrate/country setting seems to do nothing
    * Changing the bitrate/country setting prevents the plugin from working anymore... I can't do any searches, and the popular listing sits there "downloading" forever. I have to restart MP for it to work again

    Assuming the bitrate thing is fixed, does setting it to a higher bitrate mean higher resolution video? The default looks really blocky in full-screen ;)

    I have a simple solution for this...
    First of all, i dont think you ever need to change the bitrate once you set it to 768kbit, and secondary, I guess USA is the only option for us all because USA has the largest collection of videos.

    So here is whay you can do:
    Browse to the MyMucisVideoSettings.xml file, and edit this:

    bitrate default =N 56
    bitrate default =N 128
    bitrate default =N 300
    bitrate default =Y 768

    Then make this file READ-ONLY.

    Once you have done that, edit the MyMucisviceos.xml in your Skin\Bluetwo folder and find this line:

    <control>
    <description>Play all button</description>
    <type>button</type>
    <id>8</id>
    <posX>30</posX>
    <posY>257</posY>
    <label>Spela Alla</label>
    <onright>50</onright>
    <onleft>50</onleft>
    <onup>6</onup>
    <ondown>2</ondown>
    </control>

    As you can see i changed the <ondown> to number 2, which means that when you are highlightning the "Play All"-button and puch one step down, you just back to the "Top Videos" button on top.

    This way you wont even touch the bitrate/coutry settings (as long as you use a remote oc keyboard) And even if you change the bitrate value by mistake with mouse - the next time you start MP, the value will still be 768bitrate and USA as country because the READ-ONLY file was not overwritten!

    Good Luck!

    Martin

    A simple, but working method.

    Great plugin!!!

    Hi have some problems with this plugin...

    I can download "Top Videos" and "New Video" lists and I can see all the music videos in the list but when I try to play any of them it doesn´t work!?
    The screan beacomes black and thats it, no video.

    It seems like all the links to the video-files were wrong or something...

    Tried to change the biterate but it does not help:(
    When I look at my internet-connection after the list is downloded, and choose a video nothing happends.
    Nothing is downloading...???
