[gotuitdan]

I checked... No log file exists... Details are above in the edits on my original post...

thanks, Nielm... This is exactly the feature I was hoping for... now to get it working... :-)

Try sagetv_recordings_sort and sagetv_recordings_filter

cleared sagetv_recordings_sort

but dont have a sagetv_recordings_filter

restarted service and still same error.


added sagetv_recordings_filter to my ini - still no luck

Echoing many others

Absolutely way cool, Nielm.

Any possibility of recognizing the lynx browser and simplifying things? It works OK with lynx, but it's a bit tricky to deal with the format. Just a question. This is definitely what was needed to address the remote access thing. Thanks

-Anyone else having problems with the movies, the problem is that in the menu.properties file, the "upcoming movies" search tag doesn't have "menu" capitalized (it should be) and also has the Category "films" which isn't a category .

Whoops. what I meant to say was, "movie" wasn't capitalized and it should be.

This is what i have it set to:

Upcoming Movies=Search?TimeRange=336&Categories=Movie&SearchString=

EDIT: The time range makes it so that it displays movies for the next 2 weeks (time range is in hours)

P.S. I thought the film category might be an outside of U.S. thing (why else would you just make up a category name ) but i just got to thinking, how many people in the world really live outside of the U.S.? Can't be that many...certainly not enough to matter

another error. I tried to delete a file and I got:

you are a star, nielm

I soooooo got that one... Do I get a prize? Now if only 2.1 would work for me....

[abasu2003]

I just realized that Cayars had this post after yours:

Well if I were to say it's not a web scheduler, then what would your next guess be?

whats up with that? thats not nice...

[Cayars]

Notice my choice of "wording"! I never said it wasn't (it's a whole lot more then that however) any web stuff. I only asked a question "if I were to say"

I of course knew what it was but it was totally not cool of me to have started that in the first place and "rob" Nielm of his grand launch "thunder".

V 1.1 has been uploaded
Bugfixes:

• Better handling of invalid values in sort/filter/group options
• Delete file when running in SageTVService now works
• Default upcoming movies search should now work!

Take care when updating not to overwrite any modified properties files (realms.properties/menu.properties)

I have also updated the Troubleshooting guide which has more hints for those of you having start-up problems.

I was targetting modern graphical browsers with CSS2 support, and testing with Mozilla, IE and Opera. It was difficult enough getting these 3 to work

I am actually amazed how well it does work in lynx considering all the layout is in css, and most of the dynamic stuff in Javascript, neither of which Lynx does...

So, in summary, probably not...

This is by this coolest thing I have done with sagetv in a long while. It was incredibly easy to setup and get running. Nice job Nielm

So when is frey going to include this in there package?

[Ryokurin]

this is something stupid, but how do you get it so that you can make changes outside of that computer? I typed in the ip with port 8080 and got a reponse from it, but it was 'Theres nothing to see here, move along!' I understand why and so forth but is there a way around it?

[abasu2003]

nielm,

I can't get my channel logos to display correctly. I tried reading them from the server computer so it looked for them locally, but still no luck. I created the "channellogos" directory in teh "webserver\webroot\" directory and I only put my jpg files in there. I looked at the source code for the Upcomings recordings page and see that its looking for "channellogos\WBAL.jpg" and I definitely have that jpg in that directory. But I only get "WBAL logo" as the text, which i see is the alt listing. any ideas?

EDIT: I can even see the jpg file if I directly access it with <ipaddress>/channellogos/WBAL.jpg

[Cayars]

Did you read the instructions? RTFM. It's not just http://computer:8080

[abasu2003]

ryokurin,

you want the web address to be <ip address>/sage/Home

what you are pointed to is the index page, which is what nielm made. I am going to redirect this to the sage/Home directory, unless there is a reason you did this nielm

[Ryokurin]

doh! leave it for me to stop reading at the sentence that had the correct path. my fault.

[AndyS]

What can I say? I'm blown away. With this and the MediaMVP Client I think we now have an unbeatable PVR solution. I can't think of anything more that I need now - this was the last missing piece.

Congratulations Nielm - you have my gratitude.

Andy.

I think it's that way because of security concerns. I saw this in the documentation:

there is a dummy document in the web root, so requests for http://hostname:8080/ will return a blank page, not a directory listing allowing further exploration of the site.

If you aren't exposing the server to the outside world, it's probably no big deal. Otherwise...I dunno.

RTFM: It's an added security feature -- someone browsing to your IP cannot see what pages are available and that there is a password to crack: you first need to know that there is a sage subdirectory...

It should be webserver\webroot\sage\channellogos (instructions updated, sorry!)
