Can't import stvi's

I am trying to import "infopopup_import.stvi" into SageMC and it will not show up in the list to import. Either will the IMDB import either.

I have tried importing into the default skin and it worked fine. The new manage imports seem to work alot better. But as ffar as SageMC goes I have never been able to get CID working with that skin. In any of the 6.x versions. So I believe it's me that is doing something wrong. I have created the import in the default skin and tested, and that works fine then I use the SageMC_169.xml and the CID will work until I restart the client and then nothing. This test is being done on the servers clint GUI. I am ultimetly going to use that skin on my hd100's (hopefully).

Is this possable or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Skybolt

SageMC does not use .stvi imports, it uses .xml imports. So it won't find them to import.

Depending on the actual code in the import, you may be able to just rename the suffix to .xml and then be able to import it. Or, you may be to use a SageMC specific version of the import.

Does anyone have/use a CID import with SageMC?

What else can you call it? To make sure you don't get STVi's that were designed for the default STV a design decision was made to make sure all STVIs designed for SageMC used the .xml extension. For the call ID plugin you can rename the extension to .xml, import it in and it generally will work. Not all of the default STVI's will work within SageMC and some will cause issues.

I guess with the button name space available, you don't have much choice. It's just a little confussing. Thanks for the reply's

Imports/plugins are still called STVi's regardless of extension in same manner that SageTV Appplication Packages are called STV's even though they have all had .xml extensions for ages (they used to have .STV extensions). Maybe 'Import Plugin' would be Ok, but 'Import Import' is just plain silly.

Aloha,
Mike
