TV Server Plugin: TvWishList (4 Viewers)

[HomeY]

OK, TNX for looking into it. I'll keep an eye out. So far all seems good and nothing is/got lost. And that import feature from the logs worked like a charm
If it happens again, i'll collect the Client logs for you.

Nice Huha thx! Can you confirm if there are any skin changes required? It does not look like it from the changelog but I did notice updates to Default Skin files, just not quite sure what to do with them

Nice to see plugins starting to support MP2 - and providing skin files to boot! KUDOS to you!

ohh this is not wish list for tvserver lol

Spoiler

Many people use an external script/bat file to update their epg and they have to use windows scheduler to schedule this update. This adds unnecessary complexity to the installation since tvserver already has the ability to periodically wake the htpc for recordings etc... TV server should have the ability to launch an external process periodically to update the epg.

It should have the following extra options
[ ] Wake HTPC to run process if asleep (vs. running as soon as it wakes)
Delay [ ] seconds after waking before running process
[ ] Prevent sleep while process is running
[ ] End process if it takes longer than [ ] mins to end
Retry process [ ] times if it fails to end
Run process at [ ] time, every [ ] days

Dadeo,
I am glad you bring this up as I forgot to include it in the history.
The new version is still supporting the old skins, but inspired from the MP2 SlimTV plugin I have added additional parameters for the skins.
They are described in the manual on page 40, but basically I have inluded new labels:
• label #headershort.label „TvWishList“
• label #modus.label „Email & Record“ or „ViewOnly“
• label #title.label „e.g. My Movie Title“
• label #episodepart.label „e.g. Part 1“
• label #episodename.label „e.g. Name 1“
• label #channel.label „e.g. BBC“
• label #start.label „e.g. 20:15“
• label #end.label „e.g. 21:45“
• label #duration.label „e.g. 01:30“
• label #type.label „e.g. Scheduled“
• label #tvwish.label „Tv Wish“
• label #tvwishlist.label „TvWishList“

The short header was needed as for the translations there was not enough space for some languages. The last two labels can be used for the Pog button.
The Default Wide skin gives an example how I have used them especially for the Show Results page.

kiwijunglist,
this version covers also the Tvserverplugin. The installer will automatically detect the right client or server plugin for you.

Here the skin files for PureVisionHD 1080

 

[catavolt]

Just edited the post above because of missing xml in the ZIP - so pls DL again

 

[huha]

Catavolt,
I am very impressed! This is looking great . Can you include TvWishList in PureVision HD directly in your skin, so that i can delete it from my installer?

 

[catavolt]

Ofc, my skins always include the xmls for the supported plugins.
In contrary: I always suggest the plugins devs NOT to include xmls others than for Default/Wide skins

BTW: I´ll start a PM soon to clarify some oddities (e.g using Dialog Menu for notifications and other small things)
