Is SageMC suitable for 4x3 format ? I am setting it up on a small 34cm TV for my bedroom..

thanks
Yup, SageMC will run in 4x3. I used it that way for a year until I got my new HDTV.

Nevermind...Once I typed the word remote, I decided to press buttons to see what happens. It appears the Skip Fwd/Bkwd buttons do that!

I see it works in Music for view by album, but not for view by artist. Is that something that could be changed?

Thanks!
Well, I just checked, and it also works in the album detail view by artist. If you select an artist who has 5 albums, it will cycle through those 5 albums. This is the intended behavior, and cannot easily be changed...

I used to be able to hit play during playback and the timebar would pop up for a few seconds. Now when I hit play it seems to randomly jump to some previous portion of the movie and play from there. This isn't a problem if the movie's paused - it works properly and just starts playing again like it should. But if it's in the middle of playing and I hit play, it will jump to another part of the movie.

Any ideas on what could be wrong?
Hmm, not really. Hitting "Play" while a movie is playing pops up the timebar for me, and works without problems...

It should be the directory where the SageTV executable is in, but since I don't know anything about the Linux version this is just a guess...

Is there any way to get the auto-compress feature working if you are using evilpenguin's video tools?

Not sure if this helps diagnose a little more, but I switched off Dynamic Menus and enabled the My Music Files screen. My Music Files shows album art and allows me to play MP3's fine, however I still cannot play anything or see album art through "My Music".

Still works fine in the default STV. I also tried reinstalling the 6.32c full package, and unfortunately, that did not help.

Thanks!

Here is the log file while using the standard STV... it looks like errors are still encountered, but everything works fine from the end user perspective... the errors also appear to be different.

Is there a trick to get sound to work? I enabled it in the SageMC options. I even made sure the sound files are in "C:\Program Files\SageTV\SageTV\STVs\SageTV3\SageMCE\Sounds" folder. I'm using the iTV theme.

unsupported extras, recording size, pictures ?
 
1) Is there still a way to enable "unsupported extras" or is all that included now?

2) I used to see space used for 'each' individual recording in addition to the overall disk usage bar which I still see. How do I get the space used for each individual recording to come back?

3) How do I get pictures next to each menu item now that I have customized the menu?

I am using the latest SageMC 6.3.2c on SageTV v6.1.9.135

New releases are available for both the Google Calendar and Toolbar plug-ins. :D

Working on a on my own SageMC theme, I came across a few visual anomolies.

A) With the logo headings at the top of the menus, a few of them have the text that should be displayed in front of the image, actually placed behind the heading image. These menus are:
  1. My TV > Guide
  2. My TV > Movies
  3. My TV > Schedule
  4. My TV > Recorded TV > Schedule
B) The music_logo image does not fly in animated like the rest of them do.
C) The weather_logo image is displayed smaller than the rest of the images... not a big deal, just something I noticed.

Enable logging via options?
 
Would it be possible to add in the (MC) options menu an option to enable/disable logging. This would than update the properties files (for both service and client)?

It would still require to start/stop sage completely, but would take away the hassle of updating the properties manually.

Minor thing, but would make it easier.

Hi Dirk. I desperately need to have one feature added. Currently, if you set external player for video, it affects all the import types under videos that the seeker finds. I really need to be able to define to not use the external player, but for certain video types (file extensions in the seeker) it WILL use an external player. It would even be better if I could specify what file to use for that file type. What are the chances to get this as I REALLY need it? :)

For those who just subscribe to this thread, I have posted a new minor update to the toolbar plugin. Here is the announcement in the toolbar thread. Thanks.

Press "Info" on the Program Info screen, it cycles through the different info pane views

Focus the menu item, bring up the options menu for the dynamic menus, and select the image you want to use with "Set Icon"

Hmm, no trick necessary... Did you restart the UI after you enabled the sounds ?

Well, actually I can't see any errors at all... But it seems here you played an MP3 file, whereas in the other case you played a FLAC file. I still doubt that this is related to the issue you are seeing, but can you check if you get those exceptions with FLAC files also in the default STV ?

Hi Madcoder,

I guess it's your lucky day ! :D

I checked the code, and mlbdude must have foreseen this need - there is already an undocumented property in place which achieves exactly what you want:

set e.g.

Code:
mlbdude/limit_external_to_extensions=avi
and the external video player will only be called for *.avi files. The value can contain multiple extensions, e.g. avi;wmv

Wow, that was easy! Disk space and images are back.

Do you know if the "unsupported extras" are still available and can they be used with SageMC?

I'm sure I am missing something simple. I chose which icon to set (a png file) and nothing seems to have happened?

No, the unsuppported extras are built into the default UI as some added features.

However, many/most of those unsupported extras are based off of other modifications and many of those extras are included in SageMC. What extras are you wanting in SAgeMC that you don't have? They may already be there, or can be added with an import.

If all you are looking for from the "unsupported extras" is the Malore menus then I wrote a plugin for SageMC for that.

ke6guj 05-08-2007 12:19 AM
Dirk, have you been paying attention to JREkiwi's Closed Captioning plugin? Could you integrate his newer CC parsing info into SageMC, and enable the alternate Closed Captioning feature into Imported Videos in the same manner that it currently works for Recorded TV?

Thanks, it is hard to see with some of the themes included in your package, but can easily be seen with the graphics from my foofaraw theme, you might want to download it and take a look. Its clearly an issue with the STV though. I tried playing with it in studio, but couldn't figure it out.

Interesting... I don't have any files in FLAC format - everything is in MP3.

No, I haven't followed that thread at all. To be honest, I do not use CC, so it's not that interesting for me personally, but I might take a look at it at some point

You have to enable debug logging for the file to be generated.

Now, it looks like you just went into the 'MyTV' screen in the log. I need you to go into the 'My Videos' screen (where your movie library is displayed) and display your videos by genre to see why the genre icons are not appearing. Please do this and post the log file. Thanks.

Aloha,

snoopy 05-09-2007 06:01 PM
Your instructions are what I did (sort-of). I clicked on My TV > Movies > Genres.

I may be misunderstanding the purpose for which Genre icons were created. I do not have any personal videos or a screen called "my videos". I have a "Movies" selection, forth down on the left hand side of the "My TV" screen. When I go there, I click on Genres where I see choices like 'action', 'adventure', 'comedy'. It is those choices that I was under the impression, would have genre icons next to them?

No, that is a list of genres to filter the browsing of upcoming movies. The genre icons are used for your personal video library (videos/movies stored on your hard drive or on DVD via DVD Profiler). This is the only place where the genre icons are presently used.
