Some Graphic Glitches in FTR TV Plugin (2 Viewers)

[mastyman]

in this V3 patch, did you intentionally remove the word (RECORDED) from the OSD that appends the recorded tv name? See attached If not, its missing in v3

Personally i quite liked that label sometimes i would forget if im watching live tv or a recorded show so it was easy to tell

I dont remember this ever being there mastyman, but I can look at adding it.

Weird, im pretty sure ive always seen that on my main HTPC

See attached screenshot from my desktop PC WITH the FTR Plugin, it has MP 1.1.1 and streamedMP 1.4.0.1967

Edit: I just updated it to latest steamedMP (also missing the changelog like my other 2 HTPCs) and it still says (RECORDED)

lol, i have 3 computers with nearly same config, now 2 dont show (RECORDED) at all, and 1 Does.

HTPC Latest StreamedMP with v3 patch + FTR - no longer shows it, but did yesterday

Room HTPC Latest StreampedMP v3 patch NO FTR - does NOT show it

Main PC Latest StreamedMP + v3 patch + FTR - shows it on all recordings.

I think that 'Recorded' string comes from the #TV.View.channel property...it probably gets added if its a recording, dont really have control over that.

Im not sure why you notice inconsistencies, sounds like a bug in MediaPortal/4TR.

With respect to your change log I will reply in other thread...will add more logging for next version.

i think this is on both MPTV and FTR TV - however on FTRTV its missing the actual txt, but i dont think it should be on either?

If viewing a recorded TV show, it shows in the OSD the next show coming up, but i dont think its make sense to show that as its a recorded show therefore not valid? in FTR its missing the time/text anyway


Cheers

hi

this was fixed in the info OSD, no longer shows the NEXT show, much tidier, but it still shows up on pause, skip etc - see attached

i figured out what is happening here

When playing recorded TV -

When i press Info button on MCE remote, there is no (RECORDED) label appending the channel name
When i press Play pause skip etc, the (RECORDED) label shows up

You can also see it in the screenshots i just posted in above post

Cheers

Can't do anything about that 'Recorded' string as far as I know, same code used in both OSD's in skin so its definitely being set by plugin.

Here is v4 that fixes the next label in recordings for TV ZAPOSD.

Another problem but i dont think with steamedMP, missing a channel logo on recorded show, until its highlighted, then the logo magically reappears, examples in picture "catch me if you can"

FYI As you correctly said this was a FTR problem, its cause by importing existing recording from TV Server into FTR. once all the exisiting recordings are deleted and only FTR recordings remain the problem goes away

Here is v4 that fixes the next label in recordings for TV ZAPOSD.

didnt work for me? tried the v4, (in FTR), recorded shows that are paused/skip etc still show NEXT: ( - )


Cheers
