Skinning pvr recordings - Hitcher - 2014-05-07
I'm using the pvr demo but can't display the recordings view. Is there someway to fake a recordings folder?
Thanks.

I'm using the pvr demo too, but there's a list with 10 demo recording entries for me there?
RE: Skinning pvr recordings - Hitcher - 2014-05-07
That's strange. Could you send me a copy of yours please?
Thanks.
RE: Skinning pvr recordings - Jeroen - 2014-05-07
Of the demo add-on you mean? Because I don't have an actual folder with recordings, the entries are in the PVRDemoAddonSettings.xml file like this:
PHP Code:
<recordings>
<recording>
<title>Demo Recording entry #1</title>
<url></url>
<channelname>Demo TV Channel #1</channelname>
<plotoutline>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.</plotoutline>
<plot>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.</plot>
<genretype>10</genretype>
<genresubtype>0</genresubtype>
<time>12:00</time>
<duration>7200</duration>
</recording>
</recordings>

No recording entries in mine?

Are you on Windows?
EDIT: Downloaded it directly and they're in there!
RE: Skinning pvr recordings - Jeroen - 2014-05-07
No, I'm on OSX. I'm using http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=142639 like you, but I just noticed there's no recording entries in there. In my original demo folder it does have recording entries. Not sure why I am still seeing them though...
This is the original:

Maybe if you remove the add-on, update XBMC so that it installs the original configuration and then put the demo extras in the original file?
RE: Skinning pvr recordings - Hitcher - 2014-05-07
That'll explain it then I was using Jezz's build originally.
Downloading it directly from http://mirrors.xbmc.org/addons/frodo/pvr/ works.
Thanks for helping sort it out, coding blind is no fun.
RE: Skinning pvr recordings - Jeroen - 2014-05-07
Great, glad I could help. Keep in mind though that the main PVR window is getting an overhaul. I don't know how much it will change from a skinning perspective but personally I have postponed any major work on it until that's more clear.
RE: Skinning pvr recordings - nessus - 2014-05-07
What kind of overhaul ?
Gotham final is out so i suppose you are talking about Helix... right ?

RE: Skinning pvr recordings - Hitcher - 2014-05-07
I've actually combined the two versions now.
Now Gotham is released there shouldn't be anything changing with PVR skinning wise surely?

Yeah, Helix. So if you want a Gotham stable version with PVR support, then I guess it's not wasted efforts. I don't know all the specifics but the sidebar (or whatever it's called) is going away (or at least it's not going to be used for navigation anymore, thank god) and the window is going to be more like other windows. So, navigation to the different sections is going to be similar to the way you browse movie nodes for example.
