Testers Needed: MultiUser Support

[jpaddock3000]

One other thing I noticed. Not too big of a deal, but I assume it is probably the same issue as sorting, in Recordings, if you have a group of recordings, on the right where the shows are listed, they are double spaced versus single spaced. It doesn't matter too much, but I can only see a portion of the shows now as before I saw quite a bit more.

Thanks

I love the time limits in this build and my kids hate it, which proves it works. One setting the kids would like would be the ability to roll unused minutes over to the next day. Would something like this even be possible in your scheme?

LOL, your kids are watching too many AT&T commercials with the roll over minutes. You should implement the use it or lose it policy in your home.

At this rate, your kids will want to watch TV and listen to music at the same time. Couldn't resist

We live in a Verizon only area and use SAV for everything so they've never seen those commercials. They actually seem to have come up with the idea on their own.

This gave me my morning chuckle, thanks

I think I can put in an option to rollover unused minutes to the next cycle. I'll look into this once I get jpaddock3000's problem fixed.

Are you using the malore menus or the default? If you are using malore there is an option to make the rows double height - maybe you accidentally turned that on? Does uninstalling the plugin fix the problem? (If it does there is something very strange going on.)

Maybe that's just the way it prints on the OS you are using. Does the Java control panel say you are using update 25?

It was worth a shot. What other plugins are you using? When I did it on the 2011042501 STV with no plugins installed it found 7.

I even made sure to delete the Java folder under Program Files and made sure the registry had no JavaSoft entry under HKLM\Software. Sage has to be using 1.6.0_25 though as I don't have any other version on my system. Do you think this is something I should be worried about and contact Sage for support?

Thanks

You're on WIndows Home Server. There is a jre folder in the SageTV folder that is the runtime java that is being used. Rename the folder and then it will start using the java version you recently installed. And you'll need to do that after every upgrade install.

I'm using the default menus. I'm not a big fan of malore in comparison to the default. Disabling the plugin doesn't revert it to single spacing.

Gerry,
Thanks for the info. I will rename that folder and hopefully Sage will start using the new version.

Thanks!

Tom,
Any update regarding the sorting issue?

Also, with the new security API, are you planning on integrating that with the user profiles to match up? So if user A logs into any devices, their permissions follow them.

Thanks

[tmiranda]

No progress on the sorting issue, I'm away on business and won't do anything until the weekend at the soonest.

I need to study the Security API and decide what to do about that.

[jpaddock3000]

Now that show seasons are over and many repeats are airing, is anyone noticing that a show that you have already watched is getting recorded again? I've noticed this multiple times on Raising Hope and Modern Family. There have been others as well, but can't remember them off the top of my head. It seems to really only affect one user profile as well.

Tom, just seeing if you have had any time to fix the sorting issue or possibly look into the DVD playback issue?

It looks like you and the rest of the devs are the sole supporters of making SageTV great, so us end users are really relying on you guys.

No progress on those two issues. Sorry. I will get back to it but since they are not show stopper issues I have pushed them down the priority list.

Tom,
Any chance the DVD playback can get pushed up the priority list? Watching DVD's is very inconvenient now. I know you are working on a lot of other projects, but I feel if you get DVD playback working properly, you can take this great plugin out of beta.

Thanks

I'm only working on one other thing right now. If I could get DVD playback to work right on this I would have done it a while ago. I'm stuck and need some inspiration
