StreamedMP 1.0 Release Candidate Testing (1 Viewer)

[prometh]

Just tried version 988. The basic Home screen is working fine for me but the normal home screen doesn't. I can scroll through the menu but pressing OK just plays a sound but doesn't do anything...

I have issues with the Menu editor (988), but only with the "Default Background Images" part.

* If I click "CHANGE" for "Settings" (with 4 images available) it works, but I get an Unhandled exception when I click on an image "because it is being used by another process".

* If I choose a background category that has a folder with 6 images, I get an exception when I click "NEXT": "Out of memory".

* If I choose a category that has a folder with only 2 images inside, I get the "Out of memory" exception immediately, and the window with the available ones does not pop up.

Also, aren't these supposed to be multi-images? Because I only get static ones if I select them here. It would be nice if these ones where the first that appears each time you run MediaPortal, then cycle at random. That's what I thought would happen. Also, this tab doesn't have an enable/disable function, so you can't undo it if you select any image here I think.

Also, will the font be editable like in the Aeon Style Editor? *begging like Puss In Boots*

I thought I had got rid of these errors ages back, I dont get them here - I will set my folders up the same and see if I can reproduce.

No any more, we removed the multiimage as it cased memory issues and moved to fanart handler for random images. This tab will only should backgrounds for menu items that do not use FH. And yes, once you have chosen an image it is immediate..if thats what you are asking.

I have a version of the AeonMod editor in the works, based on this version but with extras, font, aeonmod, x-factor mod etc.

Cheers

Don't think that's it, it's just a Warning. If it were an Error you'd have found it

There are some errors related VMR9 in your error.log... try using EVR instead. Especially if you're running Vista/Win7!
Btw trevor, is the 'nopackedgfx' thing from MovPic already fixed? Maybe that's it.

Yes, that is fixed - we are using hte latest verion of movpics.

This is not the same issue as jojo1411 as your log file is clear of errors - I could also do with looking at your error.log (if it has anything in it).

If the problem still persisits after the install we can look into it.

Hi Trevor,

did a full removal and reinstall of streamedMP, same behavior. Ive included the error log this time, but dont believe its has any entries referring to this. Will try to do a full reinstall of mediaportal coming weekend

Will look throughot sure these, but will need to check with ltfearme on those texturepack errors

I guess I will have to adapt myself to Fanart Handler only then. Thanks for the push.

Is it possible somehow to establish custom background folders; preferrably some which one can manage via fanart handler?

I would like to enable the My Anime Plugin with its custom background folder and cycling. Which seem not to work anymore.


Thanks & Cheers,

Not as it stands, I have an enhancment issue for this feature in the fanart handler issues list, go star it - the more stars the more likley cul8er is to do it.

Ah - ok & Thanks.


Btw: sometimes when returning to the Basic Home screen, no backdrop is shown. Background is completely black.
Also I can not access the settings menu in 988.


Cheers,

MY TV Series 5x2 + Poster view

Currently looks like this with media playing overlay:

I suggest it should look like this:

ie. when media is playing the visibility tag on the corner information is set to invisible and the overlay goes into that corner.
