Why 2 items for Black Glass in MPEI? (1 Viewer)

[midknight]

I'm sure that it's been answered before, but I can't find it...

why are there 2 instances of Black Glass in the list that appears in the MP Extension Installer? are they the same?

Thanks!

Yes, i've updated the packages of the previous release and for a mistake, i've added a second download.
I still cannot understand how to add a new version to the mpei repository, so for now i'm providing the new releases in the rar package format.

Anyone could help me?

Thanks

I think it's a problem with the xml file at:
http://blackglass.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/MPE1/BlackGlass/blackglass.xml
That defines the available versions.

I guess it should be something like this (if you put the 2.5.0 .mpe1 file in http://blackglass.googlecode.com/files/Black Glass 2.5.0.mpe1)

<VersionDescription>Developed on Mediaportal 1.1.
The resolution is 1280x720 and scales well to full HD.
Black Glass skin is designed to be easy to use and has a simple and clear look.
It should be controlled primarily with a remote or a keyboard.
BasicHome screen should be used as default home page.
The skin has been developed using Theatre as layout inspiration and Blue3Wide as codebase, so unsupported plugins should work with Bluewide plugin skin files (apart from some graphical anomalies).

I'm quite newbie to this so maybe you should ask for help in the mpei forum here:
https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...212/extension-installer-v2-71542/index20.html

BTW, thanks for this great skin! :-D

 

[Tgx]

Maybe you are on the right way!

I'll have a look at the xml files of the other plugins and see if your idea works.

Thanks

Tgx

I the MPEMaker (when you create the new version) you can use Tool->Generate update xml, if the file exist the new information will be appended to the end of file, and just you need to commit the new file

Ok, now i have the update xml file with the appended new infos.
What should i do?
I should upload the new xml file in the same position (google code) of the old one, overwriting it?
or should i also press the "Publish" button in the Mpemaker program?

Could you please delete the 2 old Black Glass 2.4.0 / Black Glass Nova 1.1.0 entries (the ones without screenshots) in the mpei repository?

Thanks a lot

Yes, but it is more simple to include the xml file in svn, so no need to remove it first.
In the mpei repository just the update url is stored, so you need to generate a new xml file with latest version of yours extension , (or edit it manually).
The publish you need to use only when the update url is changed
