Description of change:
Rework for the MP config tool based on MP 1.3
This change brings the configuration for TV and radio together in one common section in the config tool. The radio configuration is now a subsection of the TV section.
More changes:
- This change includes the bugfix 0004218: Radio plugin ignores the "Show the All Channels group" setting.
- The radio channelgroups are fetched directly from the tvservice (TvController), so there is no (more) need for direct database access from the MP config tool.
- The hostname field has now a dropdown that lists all available MP TV Servers in the network (must be in the same workgroup or domain). Manual entries in the hostname field are still allowed.
The source code can be found in the FEAT-4263-Rework_TV_Radio_Configuration branch in github.
Steps to install and test
Replace the following files with the files provided in the zip archive:
...\MediaPortal\TvControl.dll
...\MediaPortal\Configuration.exe
...\MediaPortal\plugins\windows\TvPlugin.dll
...\MediaPortal TV Server\TvControl.dll
...\MediaPortal TV Server\TvService.exe
Make sure that the original files are completely deleted or renamed with another extension but ".dll".
Open the config tool and test the new features
