- waxling - 2005-05-22 Quote:i've done something similar on my box -- i added a button for mythtv. pretty simple, you just need to edit: unfortunately this method does not appear to work with recent xbmc builds (looks like your trying to add a new button, wouldn't that require work to add an extra button to the skin also?) the method mentioned by juski works, which edits / replaces an existing button (i ditched the my pictures button), however what happens if you want to keep all the buttons on the home screen? is there a "preferred" method to add a script to one of the windows/home? (couldn't find one). using pgmiii / xbmc cvs from 2/5/2005 + cvs from 21/5/2005 - juski - 2005-05-22 seeing as there's little or no information about programming with xbmc available, i'd guess that continuing to do things the way we are now is the best way. the 'api' document for xbmc is laughable. they list some of the commands used but nothing about syntax or passable parameters. anything 'outsiders' know about the content of the xml files is stuff they've managed to glean themselves. open-source... it may be... documented well enough for you to add or change features yourself.. nope. - us1111 - 2005-05-22 hmmm.. i don't get it. i try to play a mp4 nuv transcoded by mythtv from within xbmcmythtv. when i select the play option, nothing happens. this is what i get in the logfile Quote:play:smb://server01/mythtv/1_20050522213100_20050522213500.nuv cachesize:2048 i installed all the latest codex and my xmbc is the latest from xmc.org (15-05-2005). i really would like this thing to work, because i think it's a brilliant idea to use the xbox as an multimedia platform and combined with myth, its even better!! by the way, i downloaded the lates cvs version (toady) of xbmcmythtv.. - kruuth - 2005-05-23 greetings all. i have just started using mythtv for xbmc so i'm a little jittery. all my ports and addresses seem to be ok, and i followed the instructions over at najit's site. however, whenever i go to test, i get this "socket not connected" when it tries to hook into the sql database. can someone tell me how to fix this? - juski - 2005-05-24 if that is happenning i would guess that all is not okay. is the mysql server configured to allow external hosts to access it? see the file my.cnf in /etc/mysql/ possibly also mysqlaccess.conf in /etc/mysql/ you probably just need to change a line or 2 in one of those files. - najt - 2005-05-24 (kruuth @ may 23 2005,12:35 Wrote:greetings all. i have just started using mythtv for xbmc so i'm a little jittery. all my ports and addresses seem to be ok, and i followed the instructions over at najit's site. however, whenever i go to test, i get this "socket not connected" when it tries to hook into the sql database. can someone tell me how to fix this?make sure that in /etc/mysql/my.cnf you have something like bind-address = 192.168.1.7 port = 3306 #skip-networking notice that skip-networking is commented. one more thing you can try is entering the ip address of the server in the xbmcmythtv settings, not the hostname. - us1111 - 2005-05-25 does anyone know why my mplayer does not seem to play nuv files? i downloaded the latest codecs pack, but still no luck i let mplayer transcode the mpeg to mpeg4. i assumed the mplayer could play mpeg4 encoded nuv files? - najt - 2005-05-25 only mpeg2. - freeidee - 2005-05-28 hey but the project xbmyth it is died? no new version from much time does not exit - philled - 2005-05-29 (loto_bak @ april 25 2005,18:29 Wrote:for simplicity you can use the web cvs client at sf.net herecan someone please provide a bit more info on this. i'm using tortoisecvs with the following settings: protocol: password server (:pserver server: cvs.sourceforge.net repository folder: /cvsroot/xbmcmythtv user name: anonymous module: xbmcmythtv when i get the file list it's the 0.17.2 version which is available as a normal download from sourceforge anyway. i thought using tortoisecvs would download the latest version in cvs that people are working on in this forum. how do i get the latest and greatest?

see my last post for details and log. wob - madtw - 2005-06-01 yep.. been a bit busy lately. i have started working on some minor changes this evening and i'm going to get scheduling recordings going soon as well... scanning through the last few pages of messages, it looks like there is a bit of bug fixing that needs to happen at some point as well. i think i may try upgrading my xbmc install first though... to see how stable it is before i start looking into some of these issues. as for the problem with show details causing xbmc to crash, it is possible that the description is too long for a fade label to handle. i'd have to poke through the xbmc c++ code to see if there might be a problem. you could try truncating the description to a fixed size. i've also been thinking about changing the description so that it is displayed in a text field (i.e. with line breaks - kinda like imdb information). i have found that if python uses too much memory, it will bring down xbmc quickly... - us1111 - 2005-06-02 i made a small and very dirty proof of concept for a replacement script for the mythranscode binary. it works, but don't ask how. it's purpose is to convert my mpeg2 nuvs to fake xvid nuv's. it does this without commercial skipping (i think) and user mencoder to recode the mpeg2 stream. the resulting nuv xvid file can be played by the xbmcmythv mplayer and also within windows. the mpeg4 transcoded stream from the original mythtranscode can't (see my former posting): Quote:#/bin/bash - freeidee - 2005-06-06 madtw news for the development ?
