knew4v5 2.6.3 Testing

[BrettB]

Your last of logs don't show any kind of real delay 1.5 seconds to get the first http call when I drop the spinner followed by the long standing NextPVR loading issue (probably a pipe error in web.log) for a few seconds of black screen. In v18 the made a change and a plugin can't keep the spinner on during other

From the time I press the Ok:

Code:

Until the spinner comes up is about 6 seconds:

Code:

And then another 5 seconds or so until the NPVR screen comes up:

Code:

2019-04-07 18:03:13.417 T:1937158160   DEBUG: ------ Window Deinit (DialogBusy.xml) ------

2019-04-07 18:03:14.143 T:1219453808   DEBUG: {u'needsRendering': False}

I was mostly hoping to get the spinner up a little sooner because during that 5-6 second period, there is no visual indication that the key press was recognized and something is happening.

I see a lot of extra "helper" addons in there, I'd start by figuring out if you need them. After that see if modifying default.py like this does what you want.

Code:

xbmc.executebuiltin(XBMC_DIALOG_BUSY_OPEN)
    try:
        # start script main
        my_settings = XNEWA_Settings()
        my_xnewa = XNEWA_Connect(settings=my_settings)
        xbmc.executebuiltin(XBMC_DIALOG_BUSY_CLOSE)

Yes. That change brings up the spinner basically immediately as soon as I press OK. So I know it's starting.

And I did notice a lot of openweathermap update stuff in there. I'm going to try disabling it.

[mvallevand]

Ok not sure I will add this but will consider it

You broke it! Now nothing plays.

I think it's related to this "error" in the log file:

Code:

2019-04-08 20:30:38.699 T:1278190448   DEBUG: expected an indented block (details.py, line 741)

Probably not that...
Maybe these errors from the web.log:

No it's related to me having too many source folders not all being in sync 2.6.6 should fix it.

I test three portable portable kodi setups (v4, v5, and python3) and build into my git and then to github and finally build into anther folder for the repo. I noticed the ident issue in github but I didn't confirm the final build.

Those errors are the IPC pipe errors on startup I posted about yesterday that are basically outside my control. I've had situations where they can take several seconds to clean up.

Better now with 2.6.6!
