For some reason I can't get this script to launch, im running Frodo 12.2 and just downloaded the newest version of PseudoTV from the repository.
When trying to launch the program XBMC just says "Script error", any clues?
Edit: Just installed the latest dev. version and now it starts, but the screen goes black and nothing happens, XBMC freezez and I'm forced to kill the process to continue, hmpf.

okay so its been working great so far. thanks for all the help. i have a new issue now. for some reason, when i click on channel configuration, it will pop up and say "preparing configuration" and stop at 90%. and never move. its stuck. i think it has something to do with my channel 21. i was editing. changed channel 21 to directory but never picked a directory. now when i just watch pseudotv and tune to channel 21, it crashes. how do i edit channel 21 without using the channel configuration in add-on settings. cuz now i cant edit ANY of my channels since it wont open up.
thanks!

I'm going to give this another shot. I made my playlists and added them to PseudoTV as channels. Everything runs fine and dandy for a few days. Every once and a while, I will notice that a channel has been removed completely from my EPG. It usually happens with my "Big Bang Theory" channel. The channel itself is nothing but random episodes. I've noticed that other channels have been removed as well, as many as 10 in one day. I followed milkmans guide when I made my playlists and have went as far as marking everything as watched and making a rule in the channel to "play only watched". I have also made a rule in the playlist setup to "play count greater than 0". So far nothing has worked. I'm using Eden XBMC with the latest PTV.

mwkurt: can you try the latest stable-pre? I believe I've fixed the file writing issue, which should fix the configuration problem...

I can't get this script to launch at all. I've tried installing the version from the XBMC repository, the Github version and the version posted by Mark a few pages ago. I install it, then press enter to launch it, nothing happens. Try to configure it, can open the configuration page and mess around with it a bit, but still can't get it to run.
XBMC 12.1, Windows Vista.

Cath Barkley: get the latest stable-pre version from github and try that (link in op). If it still won't start, please post a log.

Having a slight problem I hope someone can answer.
I added the following to the "script.pseudotv.TVOverlay.xml" file:
<control type="label" id="1111">
<description>Show Year Rating Label</description>
<posy>45</posy>
<width>970</width>
<label>$INFO[VideoPlayer.mpaa] $INFO[VideoPlayer.Year]</label>
<textcolor>Color1</textcolor>
<font>descriptionSmall</font>
</control>
This works and shows me the Rating and Year of a movie/tv show in the Info overlay when watching a video in Pseudo. But it doesn't show this in the EPG guide. So I added the same thing (but changed the ID to 1112) inside the "script.pseudotv.EPG.xml" file and it shows the Rating and Year in the EPG, except (and this is where my problem lies) it shows the same Rating and Year for every single video in the EPG overlay, it doesn't change as I'm going through the guide. So if I'm watching a Rated R movie made in 2004 or something, it will show Rated R 2004 for every single video file I scroll over in the EPG. It will only change once I actually select that video file and watch it.
So, long story short, it's changing and showing the correct Rating and Year in the Info TV Overlay for every video, but not in the EPG overlay. It doesn't change as I scroll through my channels in the EPG. Any idea why this could be? Thanks.
