REQUEST: Resrrect the MyShowTimes plugin (7 Viewers)

[Paranoid Delusion]

Ok just tried this, did a manual update first (takes ages fine), but now keep getting a message every 2 minutes popping up, saying about updating and will check again 2 mins later, and this just goes on continually, any ideas.

Thanks

There is a couple of options on the final page of the plugin = notify MP and Force an update.
I removed the notify MP one and it all works for me

i'd like to know if it's possible, that if you only have one cinema, for it to always show the show times straight away for each movie without having to click show times for each one and then select a cinema. sorry if im just being stupid, but i couldnt see the option anywhere?

thanks!

anybody have any idea if this is possible? im sure it is by editing skins or the xml files or sometihng? can anyone suggest how i could do this?

Hi

With this plugin enabled, get a "Mediaportal has crashed" error when closing MP, is this the plugin not responding nicely to being shutdown whilst doing a update possibly, but it is 100% reproduceable and as the MP log states, its the last thing in the list.

Disabling, problem goes away.

I got this too - I just wait until it's done it's update, then close MP.
you can always disable the 'Update on startup' option, but it could do to be fixed

Hi,

there is a strange error in the xml files on the "Apple Trailers" site.
I've coded a workaround and updated the MTSA grabber (see post below).

I'm working on the other behaviours...

Testing...
(click!)

I had a quick play and have a strange issue...
I deleted al the created files from the previous version.
I had to complete a 'manual update' with trailers set to 'none' before I could get a moviedata.xml file created properly.
Once this file was there and properly populated (the previous version only had the first line the the closing </xml> line) then I set trailers to 'HD720', this then started to download the trailers - it's still going so I'll let you know how it gets on

Same thing

Ok.. My fault...

Try this.

OK - that's got the trailers working ok (It's still DLing them ATM), still no moviedata.xml yet. Will presume that it's going to be created once the trailers have finished. Can it be exported before the searching for trailers bit (then this could go on in the background and you could still view 'whats on')

Is it possible in the config for the plugin to have some indication of where it is in the process i.e. "downloading move info for xxx cinema" and "downloading trailer for xxx movie" like in the .log file??
It's a bit of a pain viewing the .log file to see whats going on

BTW LOTS and LOTS and LOTS - this plugin get sooooo much use, especially on Orange Wednesdays

#edit
It took just over an hour to get the trailers, but the moviedata.xml file was created and fully populated. Seems ok
