For The Record

I took the plunge this weekend and upgraded to MP/TVServer 1.0.2 and then added 4TR 1.4.0. It took a while to get everything configured, but there were no major problems with the installation, and I have a functional system once again. As you stated, the Episode names are handled perfectly, so that problem has now gone away (although I see that it will be fixed in TV-server for the 1.1.0 release). I also love the advanced recording rules, and web interface of 4TR. I set up an IM account for it, as well, but I have not tried it yet.

I have one question, however. I was getting my radio stations set up and discovered what seems to be a problem. I do not have guide data available for my radio stations, but I got all the stations set up, just without guide data. I can listen to the stations, and I can pause/rewind/ff without trouble. however, there does not appear to be any way to record a radio station. Am I missing something? I tried the record button, and I tried the info button in multiple places, but I could not find any way to start a recording.

Also, in radio, is there any way to show visualizations while the radio is playing (like in My Music)? My wife likes to listen to the radio during the day, and my 2 year old twins are fascinated by the visualizations, so it would be really nice to put the two together.

Thanks,

Marc

Should the sub-title (episode name) be visible in the TVGuide with MP 1.1.0 BETA 1 now since this was added? Or has it not been added to the default skin yet?

I would like to know, too. This problem is reported to be fixed in mantis, but I don't see the "sub-title" field in the latest Blue3wide skin.


bobbyd87:

What did you do to combine the "title" and subtitle ("sub-title") fields into "title"? I am using xmltv plugin, mc2xml grabber and the default xmltv.dtd.

Thank you.

Title is now combined with subtitle if this one is available.

I am using MediaPortal SVN-Snapshot:-10-20-2009 20-02h - Revision:23908 and I still do not see on my screen the sub-title information <sub-title lang="en">The Curious Case of Dean Winchester</sub-title> combined with title <title lang="en">Supernatural</title> (see the attached xml and screen print).

By the way, my c:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server\Plugins\XmlTvImport.dll file version windows properties is 1.0.4.34242, but TV Server configuration program shows the following properties:

Name:XmlTV
Author: Frodo
Version: 1.0.0.0

What is wrong?

Back when I was using zap2xml (the perl version) I modified the perl script to print the actual title followed by a - then the subtitle, but still on MP 1,1,0 BETA 1.

Chemelli:
I can confirm the same issue greybox is having above, also grabbing my feed using mc2xml.

Please share your tvguide.xml file.

Version: 1.0.0.0

Yes correct, the Version of the XmlTv plugin is not changed, but the file properties reflect the version it is compiled with

You mean three of us are right that it doesn't work: chemelli, bobbyd87 and greybox?
Seriously: Do you still need my .xml? I don't see the sub-title info on your screen. Can you confirm the bug is still there?
