RED DOT recording state doesn't appear in video fullscreen playing (3 Viewers)

[ajs]

hmmm, are your sure of that ?

We need to know who and how shows the red dot on the home screen.
If this property, then it should work everywhere, if not, then it is necessary to look whether it can be somehow corrected.
I'm not sure that g_player know about the recording or not. I think he does not know this, and therefore the necessary condition is not realized.

Then if a modified fullscreen xml skin with a "red dot" like on others menus would help us to know, faster than looking in the MP code.

I'm not sure that g_player know about the recording or not. I think he does not know this, and therefore the necessary condition is not realized.

Since g_player is called each time we play a media (tv, video, music video, etc...) the easiest way (for me) would be g_player returns the "IsRecording" information.
It's just an idea, as you know, I'm not a MP dev...

Recording is not Playing g_player - playing, tvserver - recording, tvplugin - notify ...

I know that.
I proposed you a "crappy" solution because of your missing devs but, it's less crappy than using the LMH plugin IMHO.
No offense, I know you are the dev of LMH, I hope you are clever enough and understand what I try to explain...
For "public" variables, I suppose single seat could work (not sure) but, I don't know if multi-seats could work without some side effects...
Then, I leave you searching for the best mehod to do it.
I hope you're aware this would be a great users's improvment.

I am not a LMH developer, I just completed it and support it. But any change in the Media Portal is a month and more. In the plugin it can be an hour. It is comfortable and flexible.
But I can not help with the TV as I do not have it. But if someone finds a mistake or a place of a possible problem, then I will try to help. But it is very difficult to read the source code that you do not know.

Yes, I didn't write you were the "father" of LMH
I know TV plugin, I made many changes on it, and in tvserver too (for the most part).
Some of them are know in MP code and, it's great for users improvment.
Seems like MP Team didn't keep my TV "signal level" and "signal quality" where I putted properties on the skin but, I can seen it sometimes on OSD or, in TV tuning details, depending on skin used
Here, the problem is not only in TV part.
If we don't have a refresh for "IsRecording" when fullscreen then, it impact all medias playing in fullscreen.
As I said before, if nobody want to take care of this "normal" improvment for users, I will take (for sure) many time (more than MP devs) to do it but since I am a "pitbull", at the end, it will do the work.
In hope to see a consider for it...

 

[ajs]

Much has changed, what used to be like fighting windmills. Now it can pass in the next version. I think it is worth repeating the changes and they will be accepted

Pleased to read that...

hey @catavolt :
Just discovered with your latest skin xml files :

You are able to give more than one channel recording in the "menus" red dots ?
If so, respect !!!
Yes, my MP production is in french language, sorry for that, please use google translate if needed....
Another way to think for MP devs (even if it was not the first demand...)

Yup Up to 4
