Didnt have my laptop for a few days, so I havent had a chance to take a look



@LehighBri: I'm not too sure about the cpu usage


(2012-04-10 23:19)Plirus Wrote:  I have CetonTV as a favorite and linked from main screen. The VLC plugin occasionally seems to not work on my machine. RemoteCeton will show five attempts and there is an error number (Sorry I don't recall the number off hand, will check when I'm home). I doubt that this is a problem with your script. The problem is that XBMC will stay stuck at a black screen when this happens. I can pull up the XBMC menu, but none of the selections will do anything. I have to completely close XBMC and restart it. Usually once I restart XBMC CetonTV will run fine (this is without doing anything with the RemoteCeton, it stays running the whole time). So my question would be is there anyway to detect when VLC doesn't successfully run and return to XBMC with an error message or just back to main screen?

I'll try to fix this later today Smile

Great, the error showing on RemoteCeton is "Error: connect() returned error 10061". Not sure what causes it, but like I said normally after I force close XBMC and reopen it works.

I am having a terrible time getting the port forwards correct on my router. Currently, I have two port forwards for this operation. I have one that is pointing incoming 8555 forwarded to localhost 8555 and a second one with incoming port 8559 - 8559. When I go to my site externally, I get the guide information but when I try to play the video I get "Video not found or access denied: http://xxxx:8559/video.flv"

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

**EDIT, fixed my issue. Windows Firewall was the culprit**

sorry i didnt finish the update sooner
just updated my processor and did a reformat
then i wasted half a day to figure out why my ceton wasnt working
(turns out a simple reset from the diagnostic tool fixed it)


@LehighBri: I'll investigate the cpu usage soon.... maybe its the transcoding options that I use?

@uspino: hmm that does sound like a reasonable explanation. i wonder if theres a fix for that


RE: [dev] CetonTV - Watch TV on XBMC - jfoley - 2012-04-17 14:56

Quick question about upgrading from a previous version. What can we salvage or do we need to reinstall everything such as channel mapper, etc.

just replace the files.
i'll let you know when theres something you have to delete


RE: [dev] CetonTV - Watch TV on XBMC - jfoley - 2012-04-17 15:12

So what file do I replace or what would be the best method to replace the file? Should I just copy the all the new files/folders into the old directory and choose "replace"?


RE: [dev] CetonTV - Watch TV on XBMC - jfoley - 2012-04-17 19:00

Sorry to be a pain. I haven't yet tried to update it yet but I have another issue that start a while back that I haven't tried to fix yet. For some reason, I am not getting guide information from any channel over 199. On the guide, channels over 199 say "No Program Info". I can select and play the channel just fine, but will not give me updated guide information. All channels below 199 update just fine. I have tried to manually run the "EPGUpdater.bat" file with no luck.

Can you send me your channelmap.csv file in a pm? Also send me the info you used to setup mc2xml (zip code and epg you selected) so I can try building the guide data on my computer to see whats causing the issue.

Great. Looking forward to hearing what you find and what optimizations you think there might be
