problem with volumeosd plugin and 2.2.6

Tue, 06 Sep 2011 04:33:34 +0000

I have 2.2.6 installed and patch 1. When I play a ripped DVD and change volume (either with my remote or on my computer using the Volume icon in the System Tray), it crashes with the following data from the Details button (the dialog immediately reappears if I click Continue button):

NOTE1: I have the VolumeOSD plugin installed, and have not tried uninstall it to see if the problem goes away.
NOTE2: I can change volume with LiveTV and recordings with no errors.

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

Programs for NextPVR

Wed, 26 Jan 2011 04:34:17 +0000

I have finally been doing a skin for Programs for BRVE+ for the up coming update, I have always said the skinning is a good way to find bugs, & yet again I have discovered a bug in that it doesn't remember the last view selected which is a bit of a pain from a users point of view.

ICL - Synopsis Is Always Blank

Mon, 15 Feb 2010 01:05:56 +0000

The plugin works very nicely using google movies for New Zealand cinemas, but I find that I have never ever have gotten anything under synopsis. Is there something I'm missing/forgetting in the setup? Even when I've set the plugin to go to imdb for everything, I still don't get any synposis.

ICL Use on GBPVR Client

Wed, 10 Feb 2010 21:12:04 +0000

Just installed ICL on the main server and it works great (except I don't get any verbage under synopsis). Good job! Now I want to install it on a GB-PVR client PC and am wondering if ICL can act as a true client... i.e. it uses the server's settings and files so that I do not have to do a separate refresh (and get two copies of all the trailers and movie info, one on the server and one on the client).

ICL wishlist

Sat, 28 Nov 2009 06:03:11 +0000

From time to time, Google.com/movies doesn't offer all of my nearby cinemas. Would it be possible if it doesn't find one cinema that it will not delete the cinema and all the data? Much like the trailers and posters are retained for X amount of days?

ICL Stopped Working

Thu, 12 Nov 2009 20:15:52 +0000

Hi

ICL seems to have stopped finding and listings or cinema information suddenly. I'm using gogle movies as a source, but the log file suggests that it can't find any info. When I browse to google movies I can see all the info there using my cinema IDs. Any ideas? Logs attached

Thanks

Found the No Trailers problem?

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 01:31:11 +0000

I have been noticing working trailers are being downloaded less and less.

Of 13 MOV files, 4 do download, the other 9 appear in the trailers folder but are only 26kb in size.

Looking in the logs and researching the Dave's Trailer Page website it scrapes trailers from, I am finding small differences and it appears this could be the whole problem.

For example,Couples Retreat

What ICL is asking for from Dave's Trailer Page

http://movies.apple.com/movies/universal..._h640w.mov

Actual Trailer location

http://movies.apple.com/movies/universal..._h.640.mov

Notice the difference in the web address?

Another example, Gamer

What ICL is asking for from Dave's Trailer Page
http://movies.apple.com/movies/lionsgate..._h640w.mov

Actual Trailer Location
http://movies.apple.com/movies/lionsgate..._h.640.mov

Consistent difference with the first example.

It appears Dave's Trailer Page is not making the correct addresses for trailers from apple.com. The ones from playlist.yahoo.com are the only ones working.

Attached are my logs.

The only movies of all these that worked were:

Inglourious Basterds.mov for example http://playlist.yahoo.com/makeplaylist.d...=web&pt=rd
Jennifer's Body.mov
Love Happens.mov
The Stepfather.mov

All the above are from Yahoo.com

The ones that are 26kb in size, which do not play are:
All About Steve.mov
Couples Retreat.mov
Fame.mov
Gamer.mov
Law Abiding Citizen.mov
Surrogates.mov
Where the Wild Things Are.mov
Whip It.mov
Zombieland.mov

All of these are from Apple.com with bad links so they are corrupt.

ICL not displaying listings

Sat, 17 Oct 2009 21:59:53 +0000

I've done a fresh install of v8.0.7 following the wiki's instructions and when I refresh the listings I see space in the plugin's main menu for where the cinemas should be listed (see attached jpeg) but the refresh has returned no listings. The process takes only a few moments to refresh so I know it's not pulling any data. Checked the files as well and none of the trailers have been downloaded either. I'm using the standard Blue skin so there shouldn't be any complications with that. I've got my listings set up using Google Movies on the IMDB config line. I've also tried just using the standard 4 or 5 digit cinema id on IMDB and still have the same response. I'm completely stumped. I've attached the CinemaPluginUpdate log if anyone needs to see it along with a screen grab of what the menu looks like after the refresh. I use this plugin more than anything else so any help to get it back up and running is greatly appreciated.

Problem after upgrade

Thu, 03 Sep 2009 21:46:52 +0000

I can no longer watch trailers after upgrading to 1.4.7.

Here's the error in the log file:

2009-09-03 16:43:25.431 WARNING [1] requested skin file not found: C:\Program Files\Devnz\GBPVR\skin2\Community-WS\InternationalCinemaListings\mmc.xml

Looks strange to me. Any suggestions?

Now I am getting a different error:

Suggestion: Autoupdate sources

Mon, 17 Aug 2009 12:45:19 +0000

Hey, just a suggestion, not sure if its been suggested/asked for before.
But how about the plugin auto updates the source templates whenever you do a cinema refresh ?
That way, it would permanently stay updated with any html changes to movie sites ?

How to use Google Movies

Sun, 12 Jul 2009 11:34:00 +0000

I am in Australia and I only get Hoyts cinema on my GBPVR config section. Hoyts has changed their web site and cinema plugin does not work any more, no trailers no download, nothing. How should I update it to use Google Movies?
I would greatly apreciate any response.

International cinema not working for me

Thu, 18 Jun 2009 14:41:54 +0000

Hey guys!

I have problems with my cinema plugin. I tried 3 cinemas in GÃ¶teborg (gothenburg), sweden... their ID is: 4, 1163 and 243. None of them worked

The one with the ID 4 doesnÂ´t even show the name of the cinema. it just shows: |?|. The other two show the name but not the swedish letters. And none of the show movie info or trailers

according to the wiki I should get the information for the cinema IDs from http://www.bioprogrammet.nu. I did!

Cinema Plugin v7.3 - now with Google Movies!

Tue, 27 Jan 2009 13:37:02 +0000

I'm planning on re-vamping the plugin (both behind the scenes and user interface wise) and reducing the showtimes sources to just the one, Google Movies.

This is an international site and doing a bit of research it looks like Google Movies covers quite a few countries. I would request that (in as many countries as possible) try this out and see if it works in your country, and works well.

As always, comments and suggestions welcome

Cinema Listings not parsing?

Sun, 21 Dec 2008 03:11:31 +0000

I have a couple theatres that ICL doesn't seem to be parsing the films correctly.

They are through IMDB, and their theatre codes are 10060 and 8714.

There are 16 movies being parsed, with some of them being COMING SOON releases. But ICL doesn't seem to be picking this up, and marking them as "IN THEATRES". I have attached screen shots, and the titles in ALL CAPS are the films I am referring to. Some of these films are actually in theatres, but I am not getting info on them either.

I've also attached the log file from the latest run...

Thanks for any help.
