Windows Desktop/Sidebar Gadget with Recording Schedule

[UncleJohnsBand]

Well, it works here if I connect to my testrig, which has only one scheduled recording. But if I try my main htpc if just says "NA - check network, connection and settings." I can access the NEWA TV-Guide from the client, and every other server/client function works fine, so there's nothing wrong with connection or firewall....

Mine stayed blank continuously and now it just says "connecting..." This on the server which works fine when using the browser. The previous version worked fine for me.

For those of you having trouble, did you install the NEWA patch in post #85 on your server and restart?

My guess is that cncb is correct here...... have you loaded the NEWA patch that is necessary for the updated gadget to work? You can get it here: http://forums.gbpvr.com/attachment.php?a...1319407511

Please report your findings.....before I roll this new gadget into the standard NEWA release as the official NEWA Gadget (sunsetting whurlston's) we need to make sure the gadget is working correctly.

Naturally. But there seems to be some quirks in the gadget still. Anything I can do to help you debug? And free diskspace shows NA.

There seems to be something peculiar with your server since you have never been able to connect the gadget there but your test rig seems to work. Can you post the xml you get from your server when you view the page at "http://SERVER:PORT/public/services//infoxml.aspx?gadget=true"?

I like the first option.....having the info at a single click quickly is better than waiting for my browser to load and I point my gadget to my external location so I have to log in to get to my statistics page.

I should be able to add this soon before "release".

Cool....thanks. Looks like we have a little debuging to do based on redwarf's feedback....let me know if there is anything I can help out with.

Great! I like this option the best, too.

I did not use the patch from #85 but will try tonite when I'm back home. I wrongly assumed if 1.0 was working, I didn't need the patch for 1.1. My bad!
Thanks

If I type it like "http://Lyra:8866/public/services/infoxml.aspx?gadget=true" ( NOT services// but services/) I get the attached response in my browser. It basically says "Reference to invalid characher number".

Sorry for the typo in the url. It looks like it may be a text encoding issue so hopefully UncleJohnsBand can help us figure it out.

I have attached an updated version with the System Status info in the flyout when you click the "Free Disk Space" area. I also fixed it so that when you click on a scheduled recording in the flyout the NEWA page for that recording is opened in your browser.

By the way, I noticed that the tuner status for my HDHomerun devices doesn't seem to be quite right. It shows 2 current recordings under the same tuner instead of one under each tuner for each device (they are listed separately). I'm not sure if this is a general NPVR issue or NEWA.
