MyTVSeries - Plugin that organizes TV Video Files (2 Viewers)

[WeeToddDid]

The former, when you hover over a series you see the image on the top left with the description to the right of it

I guess this kinda makes it look just like 0.17 ...

No prob... will do tommorrow.

P.S Wierd error - i get a crash when trying to add Friends 2x11.avi (in 0.17 and 0.22), no ideas why.

Try the latest version, work ok for me....

Hey WeeTodd,

Nice touch the arabic, althought i have no idea what it says, can't read it - i'm british although i do like ottawa, been there 2/3 times (ex g/f used to be a newfie)

Cheers

thanks for the quick response!

Tv.com fault... The problem is that they have an 'Aired Date' of 0/0/0. The HTML parser is looking for a valid date. I have fixed this in 0.23a by allowing the year to equal 4 digits or 0.

ok, this is working and loading in properly now. i was having a problem at first with the plugin not sorting properly by episode number, with episode 12 appearing at the end of the lists in both config and mp, after episode 13. but i deleted the database and rescanned everything and it sorted properly after that!

This specific series has a weird entry in the html. I have updated the HTML parser to take it into account.

this is working for s01e04 onwards - but not eps 1-3.

Is everything ok within MediaPortal? Can you play videos? I am trying to figure out why Senhwei is having a problem. Do you download the latest CVS code?

i'm running a cvs from 2 days ago and everything's working fine. can navigate and play videos without problems! the new 'play all' feature works great too

Re: am I doing something wrong ?

I have posted the binaries of version 0.23a of this plugin here.

I do not have this issue. But then again, I have compiled the latest source codes from the CVS. Do you compile the lastest source codes or do you have the latest compiled version from the net?

In any case, I think I have solved your issue. Please download version 0.23a and let me know.

PS: Just copy the MyTVSeries.dll to your plugin folder, unless you want to wipe your database.

Hi WeeToddDid,

Wow - thanks for the instant response !! I've just installed 0.23a and it has definitely resolved the issue I had with 0.21a - fantastic work !!

To answer your question, I just downloaded the compiled binary from your site. I didn't compile one myself from scratch.

I have a similar question to garyday - where does the banner jpegs and the series information get displayed ? It's probably user error on my part but I can't seem to get the info and the awesome banners to show up in the GUI at all. All this info has been downloaded to the database.

When I click into one of the TV series, this is what I see :

When I click on one of these episodes, it'll actually start playing.

Again, thanks for the quick rollout of 0.23a !

regards,

senhwei

WeeTodd,

One thing that could be useful is to have a selectable "log" flag, that way
if a user get a crash they can select a log and hopefully see whats going on.. This is something that should probably be disabled by default (use if you need).

Re: my episode problem, I renamed the file Friends 2x25 (Doesn't exist). the plugin figured this out, asked me what season it was and then what episode it was.. I selected the right episode (2x11) and it crashed.. I have no idea why just this one damn file crashes lol.

Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow.

Gary

Hi I downloaded the latest version

WORKS GREAT!

few sugestions:

Skip season Dont Put in datebase, TV.com has NO listing at all ( I have some dutch tv seasons )
Skip episode Dont Put in datebase, TV.com has NO listing at all(24 prequel for instance)

Ignore season. put in database but NO tv.com lookup ( for instance tv.com has not yet updated the listing of the show)
Ignore episode put in database but NO tv.com lookup ( for instance tv.com has not yet updated the listing of the show)

I have posted the source codes and binaries of version 0.24a of this plugin here.

The former, when you hover over a series you see the image on the top left with the description to the right of it

I guess this kinda makes it look just like 0.17 ...

Garyday,

I have implemented exactly what you wanted... It least I think I have... Let me know if this 'Tickles Your Fancy' :-0

I have added a TVcom logo and overlaid the banner image of the current selected series. I have also added a scrolling text displaying the description of the series/episode.


Here is a screenshot:

Remember the look can be completly change by modifying the skin file... Like I said, I am not a skinner.... just a computer geek.[/url]

TVSeries 0.24

WeeTodd,

This looks nice, however there is a bug..

If you go into a season and have say 15 episodes, then the synopsis and so on that appears at the bottom overwrites the episode buttons so you can't read anything.

I think you need to limit the number of episodes to around 7/8 and then have a scroll box if there are more so it's not messy !

Top Stuff thou

Re: TVSeries 0.24

Sorry i should have mentioned. there are three files that have been updated. TVSeries.DLL, TVSeries.XML, and a new media folder under the skin directory. Add these and you should be good.


There was no bugs... just no instructions

 

[garyday]

Duuuuh my bad, put the updated XML file in the wrong skin.

Works fine.
