REQUEST: Resrrect the MyShowTimes plugin (2 Viewers)

[joz]

Tried SpudR's post but no luck still.

The only thing really different is that I had mtsa.exe in the root of mediaportal folder instead of in a seperate dir. Doesn't seem to matter.

X SpudR

Why don't you use the latest files? Have you problems with its?

X Joz

I really can't figure out what happens? I've tried several time and it work... ???

Are you using Vista? Maybe is a permissions related problem...

Can you try to move the ShowTimeGrabber.dll in the Plugin/Windows folder?

Thank you for your help and patience...

Well... WOOOOHHOOO!

It seems to get past the error when I put the grabber in windows plugin folder. Haven't had time to test this thoroughly yet, I will and report back.

Edit:
Got it working with Monochrome now!
The Aeon Wide skin I got messes things up.

Although I don't have any posters, trailers or info, I atleast have an overview of movies of each cinema so it's a start. The reason of the error with normal installation is still really unclear to me. What I did to get it configured:

- Copy the ShowtimesGrabber in the windows plugin folder
- Startup MP config
- Enable the just copy-pasted window plugin ShowtimesGrabber.
- Configure showtimes grabber using that window plugin
- When completed you might want to disable the window plugin ShowtimesGrabber again
- Make sure you have the process plugin ShowtimesGrabber enabled.
- Start MP and it works for me.

Great job Joz!!

I'll try to fix the county code for Netherlands in MTSA (i don't wrote it, but... i'll try ).

Ca you try the attached version of ShowTimeGrabber? I'm still try to find a solution...

Thank you again...

... I can confirm the same as joz said - but going afterwards in "home" plugin shows, that menu ordering is somehow strange (which is probably caused by misusing the dll as windows-plugin instead process plugin...)
joz: btw, I have posters and descriptions of the films availyble using monochrome skin - trailers are there too, although I still experience problems playing them (flv-format, just getting black screen, will mplayer or vlc-plugin solve this?)

i can confirm this method works for my same problem thanks! haven't checked it out inside mediaportal yet, but it has been able to do the 'manual download' of information!

Are you using FFDShow?
Try FLVSplitter

Tried your newest release but what should it fix?
I still can't configure it properly with just the process plugin.

The movie detail is still not downloading...

Appreciate the effort though! I really love to get this plugin working again.

You need the latest MTSA for the details.
You also need BOTH bits in the correct folders to make it work - configure with the Showtimes grabber under the process plugins
