Enhanced Web Admin

[erik]

Indeed, so I choose to show only the "container" entry.
An option would be to prefetch the start time of the next entry and if there is a container relation to remember the container title and container timespan and toskip to the next entry, then within the container timespan you can display the container title as title and the title of the program in the container is subtitle untill the end of the container timespan.
But then again its a lot of work for something I at least am not realy interested in and it would enlarge to horizontal size of the EPG display making it less readable

yea, the source i get my guide from would have:
+- 10:00 - 10:01 childres hour
|- 10:01 - 10:15 the clown
|- 10:15 - 10:30 the farm
|- 10:30 - 11:00 the home
+-
so it doesn't overlap. guess i'm just lucky :-)

Question related to time display in the Enhanced Web Admin.

Time in the Enhanced Web Admin is display in 12 hour AM/PM.
I would like to see it in 24 hours format.

I did this by changing in Web.config

<globalization
requestEncoding="utf-8"
responseEncoding="utf-8"
/>

to
<globalization
requestEncoding="utf-8"
responseEncoding="utf-8"
culture="nl-NL"
uiCulture="nl-NL"
/>

Time is now displayed in 24 hour format. But when getting the updates for the Enhanced Web Admin I now have to remember to update Web.config

Is there a way to let ASP take the globalisation settings from the registry?
Or is it already supposed to do that? My windows globalisation settings are correct.
The time in the system tray gets displayed in 24 hour format.
Any suggestions?

[normanr]

you could change the globalization settings in your machine.config :-) alternatively the web admin could read your preferred settings from the browser request and use those. What's you preference?

[erik]

Oops, again its obvious I don't know anything about .NET.....
I tried machine.config, that works for me.
GBPVR will normally be only for private use so I do not see a need for getting the settings from the browser. But that's my opinion.
I know how to set the language in the browser but how to set the regional settings?????

Tnxs.

[normanr]

I have added support to the web site to read the languages the browser asks for. You can configure it under Tools > Options > General > Languages. You just pick and choose what language you want displayed and the server figures it out.

Alternativly you can set the system global language. In regional settings, you have to select the 'default user account settings' options in the advanced tab. (speaking from XP, I couldn't find a 2000 machine to check it on)

If you post the new version I will check it on W2K

I got on version 16 a divide by zero error.
Had to change Web.config to
<customErrors
mode="Off"
/>
to find the error
Would it be possible to have this as default? We are in a safe environment ;-)

The error was because global.settings was not initialized, I manually added the initialization (after checking timespan to be zero) . Don't know how to realy do it the way it should be done.
I am using SharpDevelop to build the new gbweb.dll
I had to rebuild gbweb.dll anyway because of the overlapping timespans
Tnxs for making this wonderfull interface anyway

[normanr]

customErrors is fine set to RemoteOnly. If you find there are problems just login to the box that runs gb-pvr and access the site from there. It will then show the full reason why there's a problem.

I did provide a sample of the config-recorders.xml that should have been placed in the gbpvr folder, so I don't see why it should have had issues unless the file is missing. That being said I'll change it so that it uses good defaults if the xml file is missing.

I've included the overlapping times fix in build 17.

[normanr]

build 17:
- load culture from browser request
- title and length info in the downloaded m3u file
- settings load better when the config-recorders file is missing
- added overlapping programs fix provided by erik
- removed some of the unused images

P.S. The horrid flicker in IE patch for gbpvrrecordingservice.exe has been updated to be closer to the one provided with 0.91.12(b). Basically I've done a byte level patch, not just a recompile.
