I have installed the latest stable pre version from github
it seems that only avi files are getting a duration.
my mp4 (created with handbrake) and my mkv (created with makemkv) files are not working ... pseudotv says always "Duration: 0" in the xbmc log file.

Having a slight issue at the moment, forgive me for not reading all 370+ pages but i can't find anything with the search facility to answer the query.
Installed this a few days ago and finding it excellent - The issue i'm having however is that MKV, MP4 and WMV content doesn't show up in any PTV channel - regardless of whether they're added to a directory, smart playlist or tv genre channel. XBMC itself has scraped the media for it and they show up just fine and are playable in the "TV shows" and "Movies" tabs, but PseudoTV just doesn't wanna show them!
Any ideas?
EDIT: Think i'm just suffering from a similar situation to the guys above with the mkv 0 length - with the latest version i've managed to get mp4 working. No WMV parsing judging by my logs, but that's something i can live with.
Thanks for the awesome plugin, keep up the good work.

I've got openelec installed on the raspberry pi and have mounted my TV/Movies via SMB in the autoshares.sh file (The media is stored on an external USB attached to my main computer)
When I try and play them in PsuedoTV I get told 'unable to populate media, please verify you have scraped media in your library' error. Anyone know how to fix this?'

hey guys
found a bug in the EPG sync.
it seems that channels that i set up using the movie genre are showing up with the correct time on the epg
the problem is with channels that i set up using smart playlist. the EPG is missing the time by 30-120 minutes.
if i scroll back i can see the correct info but still it is annoying.
any idea?
thanks

I'm having a new problem
All my files are on my external harddrive and scraped in the library, however only a few of them work inside PsuedoTV. It's odd, I can play them fine in the main menu but they don't show up in PsuedoTV.
Say I have chans 1-10 all filled with media from the same device, when I go into PsuedoTV it only shows up with channels 1, 4 and 6. Anyone know whats up with that?

grope & rockstartower,
Are the files that play of one type of file, like *.avi as opposed to *.mkv or *.mp4 or any other? If so there appears to be a problem with PTV not being able to work out the durations of some types of video. I believe Jason is working on the issue and will have a fix eventually. He may have even fixed it in the pre-stable release that he posted a few days ago. Short of that, procinger posted a work around that could maybe get you started back on post 3693. It helped the fellow at post 3699.

I see pre-stable but how do I know it is updated?
