(Old) My Emulators (3 Viewers)

[Zappza]

Hi!

I am customizing a couple of menus to better fit my HTPC, and I have a dedicated menu for my Games; Suduko, Simon Says, Tetris, Minesweeper and of course My Emulators.

The only thing I am encountering problems with, is that My Emulators and the "MyAlarmDetails.xml" have the same ID so I can't link to the My Emulators plugin by using hyperlink in the skin files. I have tried to change the ID in the MyEmulators.xml file to a different value, without luck.

The plugin works great if I choose it from the My Plugins menu by the way.

So, two questions.

Why have you used the ID of a bundeled plugin for yours? I guess you based you skinfile on the MyAlarmPlugin, but you should have changed the values.

And, how can I fix this?

Regards,
Bjarte

I thought I fixed this... I used the ID from the skin making tutorial, but I think I have changed it to something else. Are you using the latest SVN version of the plugin?

 

[Zappza]

I guess not?
I just downloaded the version from the MediaPortal pluginsite.

Will download the latest SVN now =)

Hmm, seems like the problem lied in the fact that I used the version that was included in the Monochrome skin, which probably is outdated.

MyEmulator plugin won't work in Mediaportal 1.0 RC1, I get an MySQL-Error if I want to configure the plugin in Mediaportal Setup.

You haven't said what OS you are using, but I suspect it is Vista as I had this problem.

Because the MyEmulators plugin doesn't use the correct folders under Vista, it is trying to write to a directory it doesn't have the rights to (ie c:\Program Files).

What you need to do is this :

Under Folder Options, turn on Show Hidden Files and Folders
Browse to C:\users\{your windows username here}\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\ProgramFiles\Team Mediaportal\Mediaportal
Create a new folder called database

Next time you try to configure the plugin, it will have the folder it needs to write to to create the database file.

CANTOPEN change

Hi all.

Thanks for all the work Chreekar, been using your plugin for a few months now, runs well.

I switched over to RC1 and I'm getting that same CANTOPEN problem. Here's what I did to fix it...

         {
-            String path = Options.getMainFolder() + @"\database\" + dbName;            
+			String path = Config.GetFile(Config.Dir.Database, dbName);
             sqlDB = new SQLiteClient(path);
             createDBs();
             try

Of course, the problem is that if someone is using an old database and switches to the new version, the path is changed and so their new database will not be found. Not sure how you want to go about this, maybe checking the old path for an existing database and copying it if found?


Update

Maybe even something like this?

Ahhh... in which directory do I have to put the Emulator thumbnails you provided in your first post?

EDIT: found it!

gerikes: Thanks for the proposal! I've already switched to using Mediaportal.Configuration.Config.GetFile() in the latest version, but I haven't uploaded it to the SVN yet. Good idea on the copying!
