Enhanced Web Admin (EWA) Build 75 Released

[UncleJohnsBand]

Build 75 of EWA has been released. You can download it here or on the wiki.

Date: 2008-04-10 Build Number: 75 Changes:

• UncleJohnsBand: Added ability to change the quality on already scheduled shows.
  
• UncleJohnsBand: Added ability to mass delete from Manage Recordings page.
  
• UncleJohnsBand: Added ability to sort Search Results columns in Table View mode.
  
• UncleJohnsBand: Added support for new SchedulesDirect Credit types - Contestants and Guests.
  • Make sure to download the newest SchedulesDirect Utilities.
  
  
• UncleJohnsBand: Added code to prevent an empty search string from being entered.
  
• UncleJohnsBand: Updated free space determination code to handle UNC drives better. There are two ways to get drive space info from a netwok drive.
  • First try the statistics page and see if it works. If it does then you need not do anyting.
  • If you are not getting space results you can either change the gbpvrrecordingservice to run under a local account that has access to the network share or try the option below.
  • Map the network drive to the local machine as a physical drive. This was the original model.
  
  
• UncleJohnsBand: Changes only in CSS based pages:
  • Add the channel and status to the sort options in CSS based search results.
  
  
• UncleJohnsBand: CSS General Notes:
  • CSS Note: To access CSS based screens use guide2.aspx as your start page.
  • CSS Note: CSS screens are coded in strict standards mode. This will make future updates easier and provides the best cross-browser (Firefox / IE) compatibility. However, this also means that the CSS sceens will only be fully supported by IE 7 and FireFox. Some screens will not work correctly in IE6. Sorry.
  • CSS Note: CSS screens are optimized for screens with 1024x768 resolution or higher. Lower resolution will just cause more scrolling on some screens.
  • CSS Note: Please post feedback/bugs in the EWA CSS Guide sticky thread located in the EWA support forum.

HI UJB,

I loved the new look of the EWA, but I did not see where the mass delete button is. I also didn't see the version number in the usual spots.
I'm running IE7

THanks for the help,

Have you tried re-installing EWA? Sounds like a bad install.

Installed EWA 75 and tried using non-CSS episode search. When I try to ask for a genre (Movies) and select a subset of channels, the search doesn't even seem to start (I get a repeat of the search screen... not the results screen). The only way that I can seem to get a valid search is by typing in some kind of "search words" in the box. I tried different kinds of searches and it seemed to not like the search criteria until I filled in something for the words to seach on... no way to just search for all movies for example.

EWA 74 works as expected - I get valid results. I tried to re-install EWA 75 again and I get the same results. Reverting back to EWA 74 gives me good behavior - so I don'g think the EPG data is messed up.

It's almost as if the episode search is failing immediately because it thinks the form is incomplete. I don't have IE7 so I did not try this on the CSS-compliant episode search screens.

Ahhhh....yep.....I know what the problem is.....I put a "fix" in to prevent empyt search strings from being passed in....what I didn't do was validate that nothing else was being set (i.e. channel or genre or something)....I'll have to create a patch.

I'll post it in this thread when I have it done.

Thanks for reporting it.

Hi UJB, is the patch available, I'm stuck on the same thing. Perhaps you could consider just using * as a wildcard so that folks have to put in something (it doesnt work atm btw) although I am happy with blank.

Yea...sorry about that guys....I got busy with my PCH and kinda forgot... :o

Patch is attached...should let you enter an empty search so long as something else is set on the search selection page.

Results only show in Table View...no results show in Tree View.

Looks like a bug in the table based screens...try using the CSS based screens in the meantime.....search2.aspx. Table and Tree seem to both be working.

Thanks for reporting this.
