How do I get sage to recognize my media player plugin?
Sorry for the newb question. It's been a long time since I've done Java. I created a really simple media player plugin that implements the Media Player Plugin interface. The first thing I want to do is just find the video handle as described in the doc. All my methods are empty except:
Code:
public void load(byte majorTypeHint, byte minorTypeHint, String encodingHint, File file, String hostname, boolean timeshifted, long bufferSize) throws sage.PlaybackException { System.out.println("sage video handle = " + sage.VideoFrame.getInstance().getVideoHandle()); } Code:
package SeanWMP; import sage.*; import java.io.File; import java.lang.*; public class Player implements sage.MediaPlayer { jar.exe cf SeanWMP.jar Player.class Then I copied the jar file to C:\Program Files\SageTV\SageTV\JARs and set the following in my SageClient.properties media_player_plugin_class/mkv=SeanWMP.Player The debug log shows the jar being included in the classpath Sun 1/25 0:21:11.071 classpath=C:\Program Files\SageTV\SageTV\Sage.jar;C:\Program Files\SageTV\SageTV\plugin.jar;C:\Program Files\SageTV\SageTV\;.;C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_07\lib\ext\QTJava.zip;JARs\commons-jxpath-1.1.jar;JARs\commons-logging-api.jar;JARs\commons-logging.jar;JARs\jcifs-1.1.6.jar;JARs\jdic.jar;JARs\mx4j-impl.jar;JARs\mx4j-jmx.jar;JARs\mx4j-remote.jar;JARs\mx4j-tools.jar;JARs\sbbi-jmx-1.0.jar;JARs\sbbi-upnplib-1.0.3.jar;JARs\SeanWMP.jar But later in the log I see the follwing when I try to play an mkv Sun 1/25 0:21:23.625 ERROR Creating MediaPlayer plugin:java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: SeanWMP.Player I must be missing something simple. I'm on Vista Ultimate 32 bit SP1 with Java 6.11 SDK. Thanks, Sean |

If you're on Vista with UAC the directory you need to change your properties file and maybe even drop the jar file in would be in the Virtual Store. Check the FAQ regarding Vista.

Thanks for the suggestion. I meant to include that UAC is disabled. The log is showing my jar in the classpath, so it has to be seeing my jar.
Note to mods, I guess I should have posted this in the customizations section.Edit>Moved per your request, justme<EDIT Thanks, Sean Last edited by justme; 01-25-2009 at 12:18 PM. |

You ran the jar program from the wrong dir so you lost the package info I think. Go up one dir and use SeanWMP/Player.class as the arg.

![]() I actually figured that out last night but didn't have time to post that I figured it out. It's been a long time since I did Java. I forgot that the directory structure of your class files in the jar file has to match the package naming structure. Thanks! |

Or use a Java IDE that makes the JAR automatically when you compile.

One more question:
Can I use a media player plugin for Live TV, or only media files? |
