It seems like the program is NOT an actual installed program and making a Shortcut link and making the Link file startup up as minimized is not possible. I followed other suggested steps but the Simple Range program seems to already be a Linked file and i cant make that as a minimized shortcut either. Any sugesstions?

Mr. Merc33

You'll have to make a shortcut of the exe file and not the shortcut found in the start menu. The exe can be found here on a Win7 system, 'C:\Users\"username"\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0\JZRNKM18.J2R\9NOQ9YHA.NKR\simp..tion_253363fb0e5dc528_0001.0003_d78dd41d9e624a00\SimpleRangeCompressor.exe'. Make a shortcut of the exe, pop that in your startup folder and then go to properties of the shortcut and select Run: Minimized.

This will minimize the program to the Notification area on startup

Hope that helps. Wink

I am new to pseudotv and think its quite fascinating! Although, I think something went wrong... Every time I try to open the configure section, it just loads to 90%. It get stuck there and I have to restart xbmc. What can I do to fix this if anything?

Check for bad characters. There was a post from me about that a few pages back you can find by searching that should help. Not sure if it has been fixed yet or not.

How can I add custom playlists to add to pseudotv on apple tv? I can't find the button to make smart playlists

Tried out stable-pre, but isn't working for me. Hangs at querying database when populating channels. Tried also with frodo, but same thing happens. When I deleted the channels on which it hangs, the other channels only show a few movies which are all the same on every channel.

Hi, thanks for all, PseudoTV is awesome. But i have one problem: i am not able to create channels of directories or smart playlists. When I do it the OK button in the channel configuration doesnt work, so i have to exit from the configuration. I am running 2.1.0 in pre-frodo, do the folders need to be in a special way or i am loosing anything?
Thanks, and one hug from Spain.

The channel is configured as a directory channel.

Code:
<setting id="Channel_69_type" value="7" />
<setting id="Channel_69_1" value="C:\Users\Rob\Videos\Generic\TED.Talks\" />
<setting id="Channel_69_rulecount" value="2" />
<setting id="Channel_69_rule_1_id" value="14" />
<setting id="Channel_69_rule_1_opt_1" value="Yes" />
<setting id="Channel_69_rule_2_id" value="1" />
<setting id="Channel_69_rule_2_opt_1" value="TED" />
<setting id="Channel_69_changed" value="True" />

I am still stumped on what's not correct about the directory channel configuration I posted about in post 3153. Any help figuring out what's wrong would be appreciated.

can someone please share steps to include livestream links to pseudo tv?
how do we play channels listed in livestream in pseudo tv?


RE: [RELEASE] PseudoTV (Video) Addon - Virtual EPG and TV Channel Surfing Script for XBMC - ailingcoot - 2012-08-23

a newbie question: how to add plug-ins' channels like freecable/ 1 channel/ TED talks and so on?
Is there any detailed instruction(dummy version preferred) or linked articles or wiki?

Thats a good thought, so I went through just now and tested every possible combination of the path (local/network) + (single slashes/double slashes) + (trailing slash/no trailing slash) but unfortunately nothing ever worked.

The directory contains strm files and the plugin is configured to play Icefilms. Is it possible that the streaming support is only supporting from streams in the library and does not work for directory channels?

¿Have you tried replacing a existing channel with the new one? I am not able to add my directory unless i do that. Also try without any "special" rule and using the correct form of the words. Example: If your directory is C:/Program Files... i think that c:/program files wont work.

Have you mapped your directory folders as local folders to the pc that you are running PTV on?
