Demo PVR and web interface
#1
Hi,

I've been asked to support the PVR in AWXi. Sadly I don't have a TV card etc. so I'm trying to use the demo one. Is there information missing that would normally appear in the pvr:// URI. Looking at overflowed interface, it seems to retrieve the channels via this method. A JSON call to list all channels would be great but I guess the PVR is frozen as well?

I can get the following from "pvr://channels/tv/all":
Code:
{"file":"pvr://channels/tv/All TV channels/0.pvr","filetype":"file","label":"Demo TV Channel 1","type":"unknown"}

I was expecting a channel to be a directory I could then list to get the programmes and their info from. Also, can I get the channelid using this method? I tried using "properties": ["channelid"] but that causes an error.

TIA

right, now I know. there's no stream path set in the default demo settings.

open system/PVRDemoAddonSettings.xml and fill in some url that can be opened by xbmc's vfs, and it'll open that file when you start the channel stream.

dushmaniac,

Can I put URL's to .pls, .asx, or .m3u files into the PVRDemoAddonSettings.xml file? Or, do I have to pull the URL's out of these files and add them in? The live TV/Radio streams I would like to make into TV/Radio channels are all of this type. Thanks!

that might not work because those are not the actual media files, but playlists. only one way to find out... Smile

Ok, yeah. Those didn't work. So, what exactly do I use? Can you give examples of URL's that can be put into the xml file? Because I have no clue how to do this, and nothing I've found online tells me anything useful about it. They all say something like "enter a URL that works with the XBMC vfs", but no one tells me which types of URL's will work with the XBMC vfs! :/

Thanks!
