I've made sure I've made all the right advanced rules, turned on the 'Play TV Shows' in order rule as well as others - still no luck. Any ideas/suggestions? Apologies if this question is fairly amateur, in dire straights though! [FORK] "PseudoTV Live" w/ LiveTV, InternetTV and added Strm Support - BankerBankson - 2014-10-23 Quick question>> If I want to leave PTVL open and running 24/7, Settop Box Mode theoretically exists for that purpose of updating the epg side as time passes. BUT I don't want to leave a video stream playing 24/7. I have bandwidth caps I have to avoid exceeding, and streaming a video 24/7 all month will certainly exceed that! I could simply PAUSE the video, but that messes up my place in the live epg when I resume it 8 hours later. And it obviously doesn't work for live streams. Is there (or could there be) a way to STOP all streams but still leave PTVL running as a program? Right now, both "x" and "esc" close PTVL entirely for me.

Perhaps you could have a "safe channel" that you set it on that doesn't have streaming video (a local video channel). I would say you best bet is auto-off however and use a skin that allows you to put a direct link to PTVL on the home screen so you can easily turn it on when you need it again. EDIT: As a feature request (or as part of the future STB update) maybe a timer where if no input is entered in X amount of time PTVL defaults to a specific channel (ex: Channel 1 as a static page or local video).

Since I can't leave PTVL open all the time and have to close it, she can never figure out how to get it back open, haha! Maybe I'll write up an instruction list for the time being!

I'm not sure how easy it would be to code but maybe it could function as a timer that triggers the existing "Startup channel" code, or maybe as a derivation of the auto-off code where instead of shutting down PTVL it "reboots" it and in doing so defaults to whatever the "Startup Channel" is.

My only hesitation with using the timer function is having it turn off in the middle of watching something. Like you 2, I'm not sure how hard it would be to code in. Ideally (in my mind) would be to utilize "esc" as program exit and utilize "x" or something else to simply stop playback. And maybe hitting "x" could/would stop the existing playback and immediately switch to something like "the guide channel" (some generic image would be grande). :: shrug :: We'll see where Lunatixz goes with this as development continues! RE: [FORK] "PseudoTV Live" w/ LiveTV, InternetTV and added Strm Support - azrael17 - 2014-10-23 I've been thinking about the seasonal/holiday channel conundrum that several people have mentioned and all the workarounds people have posted. I thought of two possible solutions going forward: 1) Expanding the best effort scheduling capability to include a monthly setting, where you could insert a hidden channel into a regular channel for an entire month, or 2) Have some kind of month-based toggle which could switch a hidden channel into an unhidden channel for a specific month. I'm not sure how this would work and whether the change in status would crash PTVL or whether it would simply take effect on the next restart or channel reset, but I thought it might be useful to share the idea.

I thought of two possible solutions going forward:Have briefly discussed this with luna. Can you clarify what you mean by he needs a better list? I know that I formed my personal list from local sources using a smart playlist and a plot description tag. The crux of the problem is how to add that playlist to PTVL on a seasonal basis. How would the autotune work? Would it match against a specified list and any from that list that exist in the person's library would be added to the channel? Or does he need some kind of list of actual video sources (ie: Youtube)? If so, I can probably help put together a playlist, but that doesn't seem to solve the main issue as most people who have posted about holiday channels so far have been focused on local sources. Personally I like the idea of hidden/unhidden channels. They would appear only during a specified month and would be hidden for the rest. It would be a clean option in the guide and would still allow people to control the content of their channel (through playlists, genre tags, plot tags, etc). I just don't know if it will mess things up because it will cause a change to the EPG (it would have to only take effect after a restart or a reset). |
