testversion 1.2.0.17
Attached you will find a new testversion 1.2.0.17. It is not fully tested yet,
but it has a ton of bug fixes so i hope this will be now a lot more stable.
Thanks a lot to all the testers for their postings.
The good news is that i believe to have also found the multiseat problem.
Please try and let me know your feedback. This version also includes the
user improvements with new modes for "Record Type" and "use Folder"
Record Type
The recording type can be specified if you want to record/find only one single movie („Only
Once“) or all movies („All“) matching to the exact or partial title. If you select Only Once the
search will be turned off after the first match. If „All“ movies are checked the record will always
stay active and subsequent matches will be processed. If a movie is shown multiple times the plugin
will only record the first instance. The program is searching your recordings and existing schedules
and will ignore the data if an identical title and an identical description has been found. So this can
be used for catching episodes, where identical episodes will be ignored if they have an identical
description. Please note that overlapping schedules in time will not be recorded independent of the
number of Tv cards you have. If you choose „All On Same Channel“ the plugin will lock after the
first match on the found channel name and set to the channel filter to the matching channel name.
Hence, subsequent searches will apply the channel filter and only recognize episodes on the same
channel. If the channel filter has been manually set before it will not change. So the lock occurs
only if the channel filter is set to „Any“. If you do not like the first found episode, you can manually
change the channel filter later on. In a similar way the recordtype „All On Same Channel And Day“
will lock after the first match not only to the channel, but also set the filters „After Day“ and
„Before Day“ to the same day, where the first match occured. In the same way the other options will
additionally lock to the Time filter „After Time“ and „Before Time“.
If you do not like the found lock you can search with the MediaPortal plugin in the View Only
mode for all shows and then lock to your favourite time and day in the Email Mode by copying a
single Tv Wish into the other mode.
Use Folder
If the user checks this option all found movies and episodes can be moved to a common folder after
the recording. The name of the new folder is identical to the Episode EPG program name if
„Episode“ is chosen (built in MediaPortal episode management). A folder defined by the name of
the current TvWish is selected for „Name“ and no folder is used for „None“.
Let me try now to answer the questions:
Nonciazzecco,
if you mean the Default Email Format in the Format tab then the answer is yes - it should be empty.
For trying a single tvwish I have implemented in the MP plugin the View Only Mode.
Here you can try multiple Tv wishes and once you have your preferred result you can copy it (More->copy to other mode)
into the email mode.
D3ltoroxp,
you have set After Time to any, so the filter will be useless. You must specify both "After Time" and "before Time"
e.g. after 20:00 and before 21:00 to be active. (The same is true for days which you specified correctly from Friday till Sunday).
For (Wdh.) you can use the EPG Repeater marker in Settings. Please read the manual on how to use it.
Jiro,
i will put the keepepisode number in days on my list for the future. I like the idea, but do not expect it too soon
If you like I can include your skin into the installer whenever you are ready.
Edalex,
I am looking into this next. This could be the same issue which harryzwo posted for my BackupSettings plugin.
Please have a look here:
and let me know if your issue is different.

huha,
I'm not sure.
There was a popup window in background which stops installation process. Maybe you installer require some user action thru instalation?
I'll test it again anyway.

Re: testversion 1.2.0.17
I have tested very quickly and the basic behavior only. Good news: No delays, no failures of communication. I think you figured it out. Thanks. Detailed testing tomorrow or later.
Just a small bug. By the first start of configuration after installation got an error message: "Invalid Default Format Array". But the configuration run fine. All next starts of configuration without any problems.
I attached the config.log, the error message can be found in time 20:03:38.
Good work, many thanks.

Re: testversion 1.2.0.17
Yes, I understand. I look forward to it because then it will be perfect!
No please. It is unofficial and only place for the publication is in subforum Black Glass Community Mod. Besides knowing Tgx, official support for TVWishList in Black Glass skins family will be very soon.

I am very relieved that the multiseat installation is now working. Thanks a lot for the quick testing. This bug was my nightmare. elliottmc, thanks a lot to you for offering some help here.
On the skin I will hold back. Having support from the skin experts is definitely the most preferred solution.
I hope this will happen for more skins.
I will be out till Monday and plan to do an official release of the last version begin of next week.
A small tweak needs to be done for the installer, but that should go fast.

Hello
I just started using this plugin. It's great so far, thanks. I have come across something that isn't working, however.
I am unable to create a record in the TVService table which has
expression: (title = "Smallville") AND (seriesnum > 8)
group: "HD"
The group "HD" is a group of Freeview HD channels which I have created in the TV Channels section of TV Server Config.
I can choose "HD" in the dropdown box, but if I press OK to exit and then restart the config program it has reverted back to "All Channels" instead of "HD".
I tried saving a record with a specific channel (see atv.log), and that worked OK - it is just when I try to choose a group that it will not save the record (see btv.log).

ben,
thanks for posting. Please try the updated version.
I also fixed a minor installer bug.
Jiro,
I forgot to explain from your first post: The message
"Invalid Default Format Array" is ok if you run 1.2.0.17 the first time because I changed the tvwish format and the program is automatically converting the old "false" format into the"correct" new one.
Update: removed attachment as 1.2.0.17 has now been officially released.
