- lorden - 2005-01-23 hey, i always had a problem running any scripts with my xbox media center, but i'd like to get it running finally :p xbmc ver 1.1 final built. my network is setupfine (can acces thet net, check the weather) no firewalls. now from what i read it seems to be important to have a q:\\ in my xbmc i have a q, and i can navigate to scripts, and python. i downloaded the latest kml file but it's always stuck at "downloading kml document." lookign at the link from the script it seems to be trying to download the document from; http://194.192.15.21/webradio2/kml/index.php?reload=true which is not pingable or can i browse from here, so i am suspecting it might be down. which is fine. but then i downloaded another script "launchbrowser" (you can watch videos from launch.com. i extracted the file in my f:\apps\xbmc1.1\scripts (or q:\\scripts\\ if u prefer) but that doesn't work at all... in fact it does absolutely nothing when i try to launch it. i also moved the launchbrowser.py from it's location; f:\apps\xbmc1.1\scripts\launchbrowser\launchbrowser.py to: f:\apps\xbmc1.1\scripts\launchbrowser.py and that didn't help either. i'm sorry for all the details, just want to make sure you all know what i have tried so far. thanks - bitblaster - 2005-01-23 get an updated version of the script that has the kml server already entered. second, change the network settings from static to dhcp... that fixed my probs. you using a wifi on your xbox or a router / crossover cable to pc? i am doing crossover, i know this fixes it on crossover and router... i will be testing it with a d-link bridge soon once it arives. - lorden - 2005-01-23 hey thanks for the reply, i noticed on the error log that it couldn't resolve the name so i manually added a dns server. my pc is my router using ics, and my xbox is connected to a switch (straight cable) i can't find a kml file with the latest url (http://webradio.kiss-technology.com/webradio2/kml/index.php?reload=true) but i did change it manually. i had gotten it working yesterday for about 5 minutes, without changing anything it just stopped. (only webradio and launchbrowser worked, not the movie trailers) i thought maybe it was a little glitchy so i just upgraded to the newest build (01-15-05) but this didn't fix my problem either (in fact i noticed it had no scripts folder, so i imported the scripts and python folder from ver 1.1) i honestly don't know what else to try. - bitblaster - 2005-01-23 do you know c++? i had to tweak an older ver of xbmc to work with it... to be honest, i am about to compile a new ver of xbmc (a cvs build - i hope a new one is avaible for today lol) anyhow... i am aware of your problem.... you should troubleshoot the issue... as i said, i and many people were able to get it working. - lorden - 2005-01-24 i don't know c++, i can look at a script and try to make some sense out of it but this is out of my league, the only thing i do know is where it tries to log on. the newest build 1-15-05 doesn't even want to run the script, it's really weird. it acts like there is nothing to do, i don't even hear the xbox running. it looks so simple, u open the file, it runs a command and it's done. i don't understand why it doesn't even open the file though. i completely reinstalled python i got from sourceforge (under xbmc/xbmc/python) and i installed a few scripts including; tvguide movie trailers. game trailer launch webradio (kml) i put the new url for kml.... stilll nada. i'll keep playing with it, but honestly i can't think of anything else. maybe the version# (of the xbox) has something to do with, i got the first 1.0... but that also doesn't make sense to me. edit: checking the error log file, i see the following line; 23-01-2005 13:51:13 error python: missing files, unable to execute script 23-01-2005 13:51:14 error python: cannot find 'q:\python\lib\_sre.pyd' i cannot locate this file anywhere, checked the original python.rar file and there wasn't that file in there or in any of the scripts. i even checked the scripts with a notepad and none of them call for this file anywhere on the script. googled it and just got a whole bunch of bittorrent questions, but nowhere to download this file and place it in the directory. - lorden - 2005-01-24 ah ha did you know that the rar file from; http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/xbmc/xbmc/python/ is missing all the files in the lib directory? i had no idea, i had to download them all manually and put them in. well now that we have that corrected, i gotta find me some working scripts. i'll let you know if i encounter any problems. - jsvensso - 2005-01-31 is it corrected? i only see (http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/xbmc/xbmc/python/lib/): (file) _sre.pyd 1.1 3 months jwnmulder added python extensions to /python/lib (file) _ssl.pyd 1.1 3 months jwnmulder added python extensions to /python/lib (file) _symtable.pyd 1.1 3 months jwnmulder added python extensions to /python/lib (file) pyexpat.pyd 1.1 3 months jwnmulder added python extensions to /python/lib (file) unicodedata.pyd 1.1 5 months jwnmulder added: python unicodedata library to cvs (this means no more idna ecoding errors... (file) zlib.pyd 1.1 3 months jwnmulder added python extensions to /python/lib is this all that is needed for running scripts like kml....? - lorden - 2005-01-31 i would suggest from the link i provided you go into the "attic" and download the rar file. once everything is extracted compare the files and the folders u have to the one on the website. whatever file is missing, just download it manually and put it into the correct folder. - jsvensso - 2005-02-01 i downloaded both revision 1.3 and 1.4. in both revisions the lib directories are empty. it also seems like a strange way to handle revision control, that i need to keep what i already have. i mean you have no idea what i have, so then also no control of what combination i will get... is not the idea that if i download a package i should use what i get? |
