NEW Graphedit player

[pBS]

yea, that did it for me....compiled and works...
now to the fun part....hehe
i think i'm gonna make one just for tuner graphs, as you can use the existing one to do normal graphs...tho an on the fly output filename is needed...

so basically just have to load graph, set outputfilesink,tune the tuner, and start the graph...
also have to put in some sort of stop mechanism to stop it nicely instead of killing the app...[that keeps filters busy,need to close them]

let me know if you get anywhere with any of the pieces...
i'll post what i get going....

Ok,

My compiled version does nothing - does yours play something?

[pBS]

yep,works, had to modify the double-slash code tho...
[basically i just commented it out,i think it's not needed anymore]
[mine threw errors from that part of code, so i just bypass it]
seems to not need it tho, ran graphs from long path no problem..

Code:

    //while(lastPos != string.npos)
//    {
//        s.replace(lastPos, 1, "\\\\");
//        lastPos = s.find('\\', lastPos + 2);
//    }

    return runGraph(lpCmdLine); This is the line that needs changing really

so yea, it works for me...just remember you have to give it a command line option..[the graph to run] or it won't do anything...
i'm a total newbie to c++ so any help is great...

just need a couple extra parts and this baby will be quite useful..

That did the trick -

I am a newbie to it as well - in fact I haven't programmed in forever.

Here is another tool that is worth looking at - it is specifically for firewire but shows how to create and renders graphs with decent comments as well.

I haven't got it to compile because of old headers but it might be worth a look see for examples. Finally here is a link to a version of what we are trying to build for Sage player - I don't even know what the language is but it is more robust and expects communication via an IP port.

Just stumbled on this explanation as to how to change filter graphs - looks like it may be a big help!

that second one is borland delphi....unfortunately...i loved that language but i'm not setup for it anymore, and was long long time ago so i'm sure would have to start from scratch...too bad too cuz that is perfect for what we need,even better actually...i like the net render aspect...
i'll see if i can weasel a way to use the original exe....doesn't seem to need anyting special on other end, and remote capture sources would be too cool...lol

the first one is vc++ tho so that's workable for bits and pieces......
thanx...now just need more time to work on it...got any extra of that laying around?

[pBS]

you know, i may just be able to get this working for gbpvr as-is...[SGR]
and have channel change ability as well as external changer ability, and control it from hip or girder, tho i'll probably write my own app to send the SGR commands like channel changes and output filename..

but it does exactly what we need...
excellent find dude...
the more i looked at source code and what needs to be done, the more i was leaning towards writing it from scratch using dshowlib,as it includes all the necessary bits we need,and works from c# too...very nice wrapper functions..
but may not have to as this does everything we need and thensome, and has net ability built in too...easy to write something to send the commands via tcp, so looking very good...
will let ya know what i come up with..

[pBS]

the hilarious thing is, part of a package called gbOptions

apparently the guy's name is GL Brown...

whew, i thought Sub was moonlighting on us!! LOL

tons of good info in source...i'll have to readup on sagetv's net-source commands to get it working as-is but that shouldn't be too hard..
couple of lines in an autoit script should be alls needed for control, and that should be all she wrote...
again, great find..

[pBS]

i've got it recording.. used a telnet session to send commands for now...
can start,stop, and change filename for output...it records nicely..
i sent sage a message to get details about the ip protocol used so i can change channels...it also has external changer and girder support..but i wanna change the graph's tuner's channel..so will wait for details..

in short, very usable for just about anything, including firewire no problem..
once i work a command line interface i'll see how it goes in external recorder..

Hmmm,

I should have read this earlier - I have taken the previous program and written a very kludgy graph player. It uses the filename from GBPVR to figure out the amount of time it is supposed to record.

Of course - it doesn't work well for live TV since it doesn't stop until a program is over and killing it leaves player resources taken (like graphEdit) . Although I was going to try to add net control (or some other signalling to start and stop) as well.

I can change the filename within and probably the channels as well. Not knowing C++ it is pretty much C inside of C++. I will post if you want.
