is there a way to change channels without going back to watch tv menu?
Wow this looks excellent, it makes me want to give setting up Myth another go
Looks like i'll be busy this weekend ! :p
Great work.
Quote:Re-read the install instructions. Especially the part about where to install the script.
I did read the install instructions before installing. I downloaded the latest version posted and noticed that when un-tarring I got a "file is corrupt" error that I hadn't noticed before. It turned out to be WinRAR v3.0 causing the issue. Upgrading to V3.9 solved it.
BTW, I installed XMBC and MythBox all under the same directory on my D: drive and that works fine.
Thanks! Now back to watching Myth.

Hello, I'm a newbie and desperatately trying to get my XBox XBMC to run MythBox. I updated XBMC to the lastest svn and grabbed the latest MythBox as well. Apart from the error "No module named msvcrt" I then get a "Python script failed: Q:\scripts\MythBox\default.py"
I don't know if I have an old Python version or does that ship inside XBMC, if not how to I check the python version and upgrade if needed? The log output is below, help getting it working will be greatly appreciated.

edit: Just noticed my post got moved, sorry it was in the wrong spot. Does anyone have any ideas for me, I've tried the latest XBMC svn and stable release with the same results!?
The README clearly states that the Xbox is not supported.
Oops, I forgot to RTFM.
Any recommendations from anyone on any alternatives that are XBox friendly?

If Xebian was installed on a XBox would MythBox then run on it?
I have installed MythBox without any difficulties, but there is one thing that keeps bugging me: I can't change the order in which TV channels appear in the TV guide screen.
I have resorted the channel table in the MythTV db (with phpadmin or in MythTV backend), but the order in MythBox TV guide remains the same as mc2xml created it (great xmltv grabber by the way!). I can't change the channel order that mc2xml creates...
I have been looking at the MythBox source, and I tried to make some adjustments to
mythdb.py I changed the sort property in the SQL GetChannel statement from:
to:
but that screwd up the TV guide info (no data for most channels anymore).
Does anyone know how to change the order of the channels in TV guide?
I am using: mc2xml < MythTV < MythBox < XBMC
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

First: Brilliant front-end!
I'm on an amd64 Linux system so I had to try it through a VMware image. What's the reason for it not working on 64bit Linux? It just dies and I can't find any error in the XBMC log nor the MythBox log. Any pointers?
EDIT:
These are the last eight lines in the xbmc.log:

EDIT2:
I now know that it crashes on
Quote: import mythtv

EDIT3:
I copied the settings.xml file from my VMware-appliance to my amd64-box and did some more debugging. If I comment out the line
Quote:import MySQLdb
in mythdb.py it continues on past the line
Quote: import mythtv
in default.py and I get into the plugin but with an error message starting with "Settings Error: Coect to MySQL failed: global name 'MySQL...."

Although my recordings crash when I try to play them, but, I believe thats a seperate issue (MythBox runs and LiveTV plays just fine for example).
Edit: The stability issue may be w/the xbmc-svn build I'm using?

I'll give it a try and report back, thankyou. Are you playing recorded tV over samba? Mounting it locally usually solves it for me tho uve prob already tried
