BlueMCE2 and My Pictures

[rangermcfadden]

I can't seem to get the My Pictures plugin to work with the BlueMCE2 skin.

When I open GBPVR with the BlueMCE2 skin and My Pictures plugin enabled, I don't see My Pictures listed on the main menu.

When I open GBPVR with the regular Blue skin I see it listed and it works fine.

I'm using GBPVR v0.93.10 and the latest versions of BlueMCE2, My Pictures, and My Database, downloaded from here and here.

Thanks for your help.

I had the same problem happen to me. I ended up re-installing GB-PVR, installing My Music and then installing My Pictures. It worked fine after that.

Not the best solution I know, but at least I can verify that the problem does exist.

You need to take out the VA Panel, it's causing me trouble as well in my skins.. I am going back the other panels they were more stable than the VA Panel. Hopefully Jeff can fix this problem with memory, cpu 100% system hanging and gbpvr won't load.

How do I do that? I have not installed the Video Archive plugin. I tried commenting that line out in gbpvr\skin\BlueMCE2\main menu\skin.xml but that didn't fix it.

Thanks

which version of mypictures are you using? could you post your log-file? it should be the gbpvr.exe.log

the mypictures-version from the wiki works with bluemce2. mypictures 3, the upcoming version discussed here in the forum, is not yet implemented. i will do that, when it will be released.

To get round this I have copied back the skin.xml file from the previous version of bluemce

this works fine for me anyway
