XRecord

[firefox_i]

Hi there,
is it planned to extend the xrecord plugin with an onscreen keyboard ?

If not......
Would it be allowed that I try to implement an onscreen keyboard in it and post the new plugin here ?

Is it allowed to use the sources of xrecord and findfast to do this ?

Sorry for these - meybe stupid - questions, but I´m a newbie hiere.

Regards
Sven

I am the author of xrecord and fast find.  

I add features based on feedback which I do not get much of.  I could not even tell you if more than 2 people are using it (blader_se has been the only other person providing feedback).  

If you have any features or functionality you want added just post it or PM me.  I am very accomidating.

Where and how do you think the onscreen keyboard would be used in xrecord? I have not been able to think of a use.

You are always allowed to make changes to the code, I perfer to get a email first just so I can make sure you have the latest code to work with.

You can do whatever you want.

Also always check the wiki site for updates to xrecord.

I use xrecord all the time! Thanks for writing it.
I'd like it if the shows were sorted alphabetically, or if that were a config option.
Also, there's room for more shows to be displayed on the screen, but there's a lot of blank space between the bottom of the show list and "continued". Is that an issue with my screen resolution, or the plugin code?

thanks!

Thank you for the comments. I am glad to know that people do use my plugins. My tally of users is up to 3 and that includes myself.

Download the latest version from wiki I think it is v.6 it sorts Alphabetically by default. It also shows you the amount of free space available. Also try hitting the yellow and green buttons. Yellow switches your view, green sorts your view.

If you want to change the number of shows that I show edit the skin. You will see two elements.
<VideoLines value="7"/>
<GroupLines value="11"/>

You can adjust the number of groups to show by increasing the grouplines number. VideoLines are the number of shows in the group to show.


Anything else?

Thanks again,
Jorm

Make that 4 users Jorm.

I do appreciate your effort.

However, if you can add the conflict button -- the button just added to the 238 version -- I would appreciate it more.

Here's another happy user of XRecord !

There's one bug that's annoying me: after deleting a recording, it returns to the Xrecord-menu. Then pressing up/down/left/right gives an error ("Object Reference not found" or something like that). Could you fix this?

[jorm]

I have never seen anything appear in my conflict box. Does it just go through and list the recordings that have a conflict?

Can you post/email a screen shot next time you see something in there. I would be happy to add it.

Remco,

I have not seen this myself in some time. Are you running the latest v.6 from the wiki site? Or v.1 the one on the gbpvr site?

I have been doing updates to the wiki site.


My xrecord to do list
Optional Confirmation box for delete, cancel. (controllable in skin)
Add update show, padding, quality.
bug in free space box doesnt always close in some condition
free space should support the VBR encoding size when
informing the user of the space left.
manual recording box
\--onscreen keyboard with manual recording box.

I am glad to see that people are using it.

Jorm,

I will send a screen shot when I get home.

You are correct. Conlict screens displays shows that are not going to be recorded due to a scheduling conflict. When you attempt to "Resolve" the conflict, the system displays the other program that you will be cancelled, with a warning dialog.

I will try to create a conflict on my work machine. I am curious if sub uses the conflict status in the database.

That would make it a lot easier. The difficulty with the conflicts are for users with multiple tuner cards.

Yes, this was added in the last release.
