black screen

i've posted it on mtv-plugin too because it helped me out there too.

hello to the forum,

sorry for my english. for all the "black screen"-people... after installing the newest adobe flash player... try this:

go to : c:\windows\system32\macromed\flash\
and : execute the FlashUtil10a.exe

now flash ist making an update... after this you have to reboot the system.

now the plugin works for me. i don't know why the newest plugin have to be updated, but...

maybe it will help you too. i've tested it on windows vista and xp and everything is fine. maybe the update-tool has different name... for me ist was flashutil10a.exe

@Dukus - looks like the installer needs to be fixed for users with Aeon wide skin installed. BTW, I PM'd you about an issue too.

@Baja - I still had a clean RC3 client on one machine (are you on 1.0 RC3?), so I installed Aeon wide, & then opened the skin directory & watched the bottom of the file list while installing Yahoo plugin V0.6.

The installer listed two entries for Aeon wide on my system too. By default the one at the top of the list was unchecked, & the one further down was checked. I let the installer proceed with those settings, & it resulted in three files being copied to the Aeon wide skin folder. All three files started with yahoo in their name. With these files installed, the formatting of the page is screwed, & the new RC3 menus open superimposed on the main page content, resulting in a mess.

I used the MPinstaller util to remove the plugin, & again installed this time unchecking the middle entry & checking the top one. This time the installer copied over three yahoo files, & a fourth file for common window. With these files installed the screen looked great, & menus worked correctly.

If trying this still doesn't work for you Baja, then maybe it's because the plugin isn't including language entries for the menus in your language. What language are you running in?


Hi, X4mer
I have "same problem and same way" what you had, however, still have it. it is not fixed by your way, Also I have same problem with MTV plugin too. With other plugins I do not have problem such as wiitv, radio time, mytrailers.
it replaces common.window.short.xml, it is not common.window.xml

I use new RC3, Vista32bit English

If install a MP SVN version the language files are overwrite so all plugin specific language entries are deleted, to regain the language entries should reinstall the plugins

I installed "MediaPortalSetup_1.0_RC3_rev20432". I have not installed any SVN version and only yahoo plug in. (clean installation) even re-install yahoo plugin.
Is there any relation between language enties of plug-in and common.window.short.xml ?

I'm not able to get this plugin to work.
What steps have to be done additionally?
Is the Adobe Flash Player Plugin necessary?
Has the "Yahoo player process plugin" to be enabled?
If I install Flash plugin and enable the "Yahoo player process plugin" it seems to work, however in fullscreen mode all keys seems to be disabled. It is no longer possible to stop a movie. This works in winow mode.

Any suggestions?
Thanks.
grubi.

Everyting seems to work now, but keystrokes are ignored while playback if MP is in fullscreen mode. Works correct if in windowed mode.

Any ideas?

2 Suggestions:

Make the name of the plugin which is displayed in thr MP home menu configurable. In XFace the name "Yahoo Music Videos" is to long and looks messy.

The Button "Contry" should be named "Country"
