Hopefully I've fixed the problems on the Guide details popup that Nistrod mentioned in the v1.7.4 thread.

Repeat of the release details...

I've uploaded v1.7.5 of the nDroid client app to the Android Market and the associated installer for the v 1.7.4 of the nDroid service to the NextPVR wiki page. http://www.nextpvr.com/nwiki/pmwiki.php?...ity.NDroid

You MUST update both of them for this version to work - please update the nDroidService on your PC before downloading v1.7.5 of the nDroid app.

Also, please see the point below about uninstalling v1.6.8 of the nDroid app before downloading v1.7.5 to your Android device.

IMPORTANT:

  1. v1.7.x requires NextPVR v2.3.6 and WILL NOT work with previous versions.
  2. If you have v1.6.8 or earlier installed on your Android device, you MUST uninstall it before installing v1.7.x
  3. v1.7.4 of the nDroidService may be installed over previous versions

Changes / updates:

nDroid app:
  • Fixed time-zone related issue in the Guide detail popup of the short lived v1.7.4 which prevented record/watch of programmes
  • Changed the order of buttons on the various popups to put 'Close' on the left hopefully to prevent acidental recordings or cancelling existing recordings.
  • Added 'Watch' button to various Guide popups to allow watching Live TV (see section below)
  • Added Recordings view to show existing recordings and allow them to be watched (see below)
  • Updated the way currently scheduled recordings are managed - should prevent the highlight in Gude views failing after the app is updated
  • Updated various database tables in the local database to match changes in NextPVR v2.3.6 (mostly not yet used)
  • Various bug fixes and stuff I've forgotten

nDroidService:
  • Updated export logic to cater for new database format in NextPVR v2.3.6
  • Fixed bug that might falsely report a recording request is successful even if there has been an error
  • Added streaming HTTP server
  • Improved logging in some areas
  • Various bug fixes and stuff I've forgotten

Viewing Live TV and watching Recordings (Experimental):

In order to watch live tv or view recordings you will need a 3rd-party media player app installed on your Android device. I've personally only tested this with MX Video Player and it works very nicely. I can't guarantee that it will work with other Android media player apps or even if it will work at all.

To watch live tv you will also have to enable the NextPVR web server as it uses the "/live?channel=###" call built-in. Streaming of media from the Recordings view is handled by the nDroidService and, as stated, is experimental.

This was quite a major piece of work and there's probably some things I've missed so I'll update when I can remember.

Great work Brian. One question: on my system it takes about 35 seconds before the file starts playing. Is this the same for you, or should I upload some logs?

Thanks, I like it. Smile Still more to come when I get time.

Quote:One question: on my system it takes about 35 seconds before the file starts playing. Is this the same for you, or should I upload some logs?
I find it varies. Sometimes it takes only a short time (perhaps around 5 seconds) other times it can take 15-20 seconds, I haven't timed it exactly.

It might depend on what sort of media file it is and the size. The nDroidServiceStreamer.log file should contain everything related to the streaming although nDroidServiceListener.log might help too if you want me to look further.

EDIT: If you're trying this with Live TV it can take quite a bit of time because of the way MX Video Player tries to analyse the feed.

Yes, very interested. I don't like the look of those exceptions - the first one probably explains why it takes so long to get going and the last two should be being handled a bit more gracefully rather than logged in that way.

I'll double-check the code and hopefully find the issues. Glad you like it. Smile

Cheers,
Brian

@gEd - Actually, I might have an angle on the first exception. Which version of the MX player are you using?

OK thanks, same as me. I'm wondering if it's to do with the mx player settings (I changed a few of them). I'll look further.
