- teresa - 2010-10-14 I am trying out Mythbox RC2 on my Revo AR1600 with Dharma and Confluence skin(previous xbox user with myth2xbmc) against MythTV release-0-23-fixes [0.23-0.7.rc2.md12 (r24159)]. I can watch both recordings and live TV but I have a couple of issues and I am wondering if they are known issues or I am missing something. 1) On the Recordings and Upcoming Recordings screens, the button that should show sort by Date, Title, etc, shows ": Invalid port num...". 2) On the initial MythBox screen, I dont see the recent recordings art (looks like updating forever) unless I hit a scroll left or right button. Thanks for any help. - Dobyken - 2010-10-14 teresa Wrote:I am trying out Mythbox RC2 on my Revo AR1600 with Dharma and Confluence skin(previous xbox user with myth2xbmc) against MythTV release-0-23-fixes [0.23-0.7.rc2.md12 (r24159)].

It's listed in google code and will be fixed when he gets time. The fan art for the recent recordings is a bit slow to load but on my system eventually shows up. - analogue - 2010-10-15 OK folks, RC2 is out :-) I'm aware of a number of quirks with Dharma but RC2 is primarily for Camelot. The translations have gotten an overhaul and are now ready to be updated (German already taken care of my linuxleummel). Let me know if you'd like to contribute.. On another note, I don't seem to be getting notifications when new posts are made to this forum (otherwise, I would show up a lot more). Anyone else having the same problem even after having subscribed? - analogue - 2010-10-15 tafypz Wrote:I have a quick question, now that the add-on system is there do you intend on adapting your work to a pvr-testing2 branch addon ? I am interested in creating an addon for that branch and would rather join forces if you plan on doing it too. Hi tafypz, I don't think the way that the pvr-addon is being developed makes it easy to develop the addon in python (any xbmc devs wanna chime in?). I haven't checked out the pvr-testing2 branch in many months, but it looked like the pvr specific functionality has to be developed in C/C++. Your thoughts? - analogue - 2010-10-15 rottenrocky Wrote:Hello all! Known quirks... My focus is getting out a stable 1.0 for camelot (translations are all thats left unless I'm missing anything major) and then going to work on the Dharma stuff. - analogue - 2010-10-15 philipp2084 Wrote:First of all: Really good work analogue!!! Good to hear! That makes all of two wives now enjoying MythBox (yours and mine..hehe). On to your problem..I have have a suspicion it may be a timing isssue. Give this a try: 1. Both tuners idle 2. Wait until tuner1 is busy recording a scheduled program 3. Watch live TV on tuner2 4. Stop live TV on tuner2 5. Wait...give it a good 3-4 mins 6. Watch live TV on tuner2 again Do you get the 'All tuners busy' error message? - analogue - 2010-10-15 teresa Wrote:I am trying out Mythbox RC2 on my Revo AR1600 with Dharma and Confluence skin(previous xbox user with myth2xbmc) against MythTV release-0-23-fixes [0.23-0.7.rc2.md12 (r24159)].

Yup, known issues w/ Dharma since it is still in beta. - dekani - 2010-10-15 I have updated the french translation. (using the current english translation) I will send it soon. (Done, please see Issue 125) - analogue - 2010-10-17 dekani Wrote:I have updated the french translation.

I unpacked to the "addons" dir and helped it over the first exception by manually creating a script_data directory for it. When I run it now, I get the Mythbox splash screen, this disappears, I see a "greyed out" Programs background, and XBMC hangs. In case it matters I was trying this on my "trial" XBMC machine, which is Windows XP. My "production" XBMC is Ubuntu 10.04 ... and I might try it there too but I wouldn't imagine it would make any difference. - nojstevens - 2010-10-18 Hi Liamf, i can confirm I have rc2 working ok with Dharma beta 3 on Ubuntu 10.04 Jon - analogue - 2010-10-19 Great..works on ubuntu, freezes on windows..that should be fun to figure out.. - sebj - 2010-10-24 Quote:Hi Liamf, i can confirm I have rc2 working ok with Dharma beta 3 on Ubuntu 10.04 How did you get it to launch? I copied RC2 as an addon, but when launching it I get an error. Maybe I'm missing something with Quote:and helped it over the first exception by manually creating a script_data directory for it. care to explain please? thx - dyinman - 2010-10-24 @sebj I can confirm it's running for me too on Dharma beta 3 on Ubuntu 10.04, but not without it's share of bugs. Watching recordings worked well enough, but watching live TV was iffy at times (takes a very long time to change channels, often freezes, seeking can freeze it, etc). The only thing I had to do was create ~/.xbmc/userdata/script_data and then install it as an addon. Instead of making the directory, I just symlinked ~/.xbmc/userdata/addon_data to ~/.xbmc/userdata/script_data and that worked just as well. - sebj - 2010-10-24 Ok! That did the trick! Thanks! But it doesn't seem to launch if I add it as a favorite, weird... I enabled debug logging but can't seem to find that log file yet. I'm scrambling to make this work since seems like the myth stuff built into the beta3 live cd doesn't work yet Some of you might relate to this : My main xbmc box's motherboard failed and I'm putting up a ghetto solution on another computer until the ion box arrives. Why the rush? The wife, toughest client ever. |
