ParaLED plugin setup ?

[betlit]

nah... was ok only three weeks (in switzerland you do three weeks of military service per year until you served about 200 days (+ 100 days basic training at the beginning)).

i'm a technician and not a fighter, so as long as the communication devices i'm responsible for are working, i have a rather easy life

the new version can be downloaded from the wiki.

see readme for details or ask me

Thanks heaps for this - works exactly how I wanted it to, lets me know when the EPG is downloading, and when comskip is still running.

Cheers

Does anyone have any pictures of their ParaLED enclosures? I'd like to make one for myself real soon and am looking for ideas.

I have build a red(record), blue(ready), yellow(low space/not updated the EPG for 7 days) 3.5 mm LEDs into the case.

Betlit,

When I have a recording start on one of my cards, the light goes on for a second then goes off again, is there any reason for this?

Cheers

Hello!

I have problems with ParaLED.
I have GBPVR 1.1.15 and use the new PVRX2.exe

The first LED will work, when PVRX2 started, the led will go on.
Also the freespace option work to, when i start paraled it shows on LED 2 the disk space is under the limit stored in the xml file.

But recording status don´t work !
This is the LED 3 or not?
I used the External Recorder Plugin and my Capture source calls "ProgDVB".
I have tested many times the manual setting for paraled, but this not work!

No LED can switch on or off. I have tested also the first and second led, but nothing.
ParaLED.exe manualcall:diode1:off

I have make the recordingstatus.bat file, but PVRX2 dont call this...i think.
I have add your "echo %1 %2 >> c:\paraled.log" line, but this file will not create.
When i start the batch file manually with "test1" "test2" the file will be made and the text will stored in this file.

What can i do ?

EDIT:
Ok, recordingstatus.bat starts now, and makes the log file
The LED´s for PVXR2 and Record also work now !
I have an LPT driver deinstalled that was for WIN XP when used an Dot Matrix Display, i think this makes the problem...but now it works :-)

One thing i dont understand:
Who works the Warning LED ?
I want to know when EPG will update, i have an entry in the XML file

<warnings>
<epg>25920</epg>
</warnings>

But no LED will go on when i start the EPG Update over PVRX2
And one more question: which LED can blink ?

Any more pictures of anyone's ParaLED setup?

the warning feature does not work as you expect it to it's just a timer you set (in this case after 25920 seconds) to let one/some/all LEDs blink.

the epg-tag is just a 'name' you give the warning (the name is needed to identify the warning timer when calling paraled.exe <warning-name> to _prevent_ the warning to trigger).

when a timer expires, the LEDs specified in <warningled></warningled> will blink.
