And you can do all three in the latest stable?

Has anyone experienced this? I have tried uninstalling it and reinstalling several times with same results. I tried bringing over my old settings and still won't even try loading app. Literally nothing happens when I launch the app. What am I missing??

now that PTV has DVB-T by project is almost complete Smile

i cannot use any other numbers beside this.
i am using a standard microsoft MCE remote.
would appreciate any help here
thanks

I also use a MCE remote, works great in both windows and openelec...

Make sure your remote has a keymap, and if you are using eventghost... make sure you remap your number keys.
Anyone else having this problem?

I now have my HDHomerun, Enigma2 PVR (FTA Satellite), Youtube, RSS feeds, plus my own channels from local data and Hulu operating all together in one interface. I have looked forward to this day for months (actually a couple of years). Thanks to all involved.

I am still using the stable version for a couple of reasons. I am unable to get EPG to work no matter what I do with xmltv (have tried mc2xml with microsoft and schedules direct and zap2xml). The moment I enter xmltv data for a channel 8 type I always get a black screen no matter which version I use (stable or master). With the current master I was unable to access the advanced menu (mentioned by another poster in post #1015 and apparently fixed) but I could also not get remote clicks to work at all in the configuration window of the master. In fact I can not get the remote to open PTV when I put PTV Live on the main screen of Confluence (it will open from Programs->Pseudo TV Live only, reported in #1005). So for now I am sticking with the stable build.

Still have to say this software and TV Guide are the two programs that finally have me using XBMC exclusively. Fantastic! Look forward to further developments.

I'm glad you like the new features...

I would recommend moving to the master version over the stable one... at least the latest (11/3) master that is... It is stable and includes necessary bug fixes.

As for xmltv data, it is really easy to setup. If you are still getting a black screen using chtype 8. I recommend checking the xmltv file, make sure it is not encoded using utf-8. Then I would delete the old xmltv file and build a brand new one. Double check you are using a xmltv channel id that is actually found within the xmltv file and also post your setting2 configuration for the channel that isn't working...

All else fails post your log, so I can take a look... I use xmltv data daily with PTVL, It should work great!

As for the advanced configuration... its a skinning issue... trying to work out the bugs; data isn't missing its just hidden by font colors or textures blocking information. Going to post a temp fix later.

Launching advanced settings, and ptvl from a menu or button map is fix and included in master...

hey
i had the same issue. my EPG grabber encodes the file in UTF-8 so i got a black screen, but also after converting it to ISO-8859-1 it still didnt work.
i opened a shared directory on my PC calles PTV and placed the xmltv.xml file in it without knowing it had only read access to everyone. for some reason it is working great with UTF-8.
could it be that PTVL changes something in the file that causes the black screen? while disabling write access allows it to display even though its in UTF 8?

regarding the keymap, i use openelec which is a skinny linux xbmc version so i dont use windows or eventghost.
i will try to keymap all the keys to it, maybe it will help.
thanks

They work fine using PTVL's default directory though. Is this something that has a solution and I missed it or do you need a log?

Also, does interleaving not work currently?

edit: Any chance of an option to parse youtube channels in reverse order?

Wow - This is way too cool for school man! Can you point me to the channel logos you're using as well as anything else that I might need? Do you have a PSD for the channel logos or anything in case some of my channels aren't included?
This is getting lashed onto my system at home tonight!!!

Hey glad to hear you like it...

The logos are all custom made by me so there isn't really a .PSD template per se, but I suppose I could upload a .PSD file that contains the effects I use (since those are at least uniform) so if you want to create any new channel logos all you'll have to do is select the effects and choose the default settings. Also the "pseudo-theater" logo is uniform for all my movie channels and "pseudo-radio" is there for music channels (once they are working) so I'll include those in the upload tonight.

I just triple checked your problems... As the developer I can safely say the latest (11/3) master is more stable ATM....

1) launching PTVL was fixed. Problem is on your end....
2) Are you saying your remote only works with stable?
3) there maybe some skin issues with the configuration screen, but everything is accessible via keyboard and remote.

Also anyone that tries out my skin let me know how the install goes on various skins...I tested it on AEON mq5, AEON nox, Ace, and confluence so far and at least on my dev machine it's worked without any problems.

I was having the exact same issue as you. I switched to XMLTV GUI: www.birtles.org.uk/xmltv/ using my schedules direct account and I got it working no problem. I have windows task scheduler grab 1 day's worth of programming every day at 5am. Just one day's worth of data for 6 channels takes some time for PTVL to parse (at least for me) so I limit it to 1 day. This is the command I use: xmltvconsole.exe /Grab /D1


Good luck!

Just loaded master at 7:45 pm central US time.

Deleted Cache, Settings2.xml

I'm trying to get ustvnow to work, via autotune. When launching PTV it Parses and adds tv shows but once completed adding the 8 stations it just exits and when I rerun PTV it start the process all over again.

Should it be working right now?

I have double checked and the ustvnow plugin is working correctly.

Am I able to add terrestrial channels from antenna? If so, how would I do it?

Also (as I'm quite new to this AMAZING plugin), for the guys that use this with local, live and internet TV, how are you structuring your channels?

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

@EZ1976 please don't flood the thread with logs, upload the log and post the link...


RE: [FORK] "PseudoTV Live" w/ LiveTV, InternetTV and added Strm Support - ARYEZ - 2013-11-05

In case anyone missed it, I uploaded an updated version of my new skin last night to include a template .PSD file for anyone interested.

Also I need everyone on here to do me a favor...

Can everyone that's active on this thread take a couple of minutes and try to auto tune some music channels? Luna needs as many logs as possible to figure out what the issue is, and right now we just don't have enough data.

Remember to enable debugging before you do, and then please upload a log here so we can get to the bottom of why this feature is still buggy.
