RE: [FORK] "PseudoTV Live" w/ LiveTV, InternetTV and added Strm Support - Lunatixz - 2014-05-26 (2014-05-26, 19:47)ianuk2005 Wrote: I've finally got my live tv channels all working with Pseudo Tv now =D Settop mode - this is basically how it was designed, once enabled it turns on autostart, so that it loads with xbmc... and will run on a hourly update schedule not a daily one. It's a little buggy right now I would wait for final release. epg coloring - already have this change from genre to chtype.. each chtype ie (livetv, internettv, local, etc) will have its own color epg cat/size - not interested in sub cat's or limited channels by cat. I will be adding some new overlay features like a sidebar that will bring up a quick list of whats "on" now... Error handling - I actually have a pretty good one setup, but I think because I don't document how to handle errors users jump the gun. The safest way to use pseudotv live is with strms or actual media files. Strms allow for redundancy that are in place. for example if you have two sources for the same stream, if you place both in one file, Pseudotv will automatically play the working one. If both fail a backup file is played to keep pseudo from bugging out. If your not using strm's I have a dead link catcher that will avoid building a channel that has dead links... since I can't catch them all I have a script in place that will either try skipping through the next three shows on the list, if that fails Pseudotv should change the channel automatically. Since we are dealing with internet sources depending on connections speeds and latencies this process can seem slow, making users think Pseudotv has failed... [FORK] "PseudoTV Live" w/ LiveTV, InternetTV and added Strm Support - ADHDMedia - 2014-05-26 I think the community lists are a great idea, I just don't have any desire to have a couple hundred channels running one show each. The way I have it set up now with USTVnow channels, new movie channels, kids movies channels, a kids YouTube channel, and genre based TV channels via 1channel is perfect. If there were community channels that had mixed tv shows and movie channels that would be different, but I don't see any way to do that without physically adding shows to a YouTube playlist and constantly updating it by hand, and adding it to the community list myself. Very tedious work… Correct me if I'm wrong? RE: [FORK] "PseudoTV Live" w/ LiveTV, InternetTV and added Strm Support - bry - 2014-05-26 @ianuk2005 what tuner are you using? Strm files?

Very tedious work… I also use PTVL to create live channels and mixed content channels. The community list would allow us to share content configurations that are category (e.g. History, Science, Comedy.etc.), show, or genre driven. You should consider the benefits and join up. If you want to see more channel streams or specific content streams; sign up and share what you have, it may inspire others to share there content. There are already a lot of great contributions on the list. Oh and to your mixed content comment, creative use of interleaving channels or using plugins easily solves that issue.

If my live tv channels fail they seem to go to a backup youtube playlist. How do I get pseudo to play a backup file if a strm fails? I think the chtype colouring is good but it would nice to be able to set it on a per channel basis as everyone might want it different. for example I have both movie playlist channels and tv episode playlists which both get coloured the same =P. I think the sub cat's would be a useful feature but only if you have 100+ channels =) Also I'm going to look into that community list stuff, maybe I can contribute.
