Web radio and movie trailers don't work
#1
look though the posts and could not find an answear

when i select web radio or movie trailers, nothing happens. normally i was assume that this was caused by my network congiuration being wrong, but the weather and imdb features both work fine.

if anyone has an answear to this it would really help. thanks



extra info. i am conected to a cable connection through a linksys router. xecuter 2.3, x2 bios, evox is my main dash, latest version of xbmc (however this has been a problem though many builds for me)

i don't think the scripts are included on this release. i'm browsing the forums myself to find out how to get the game and movie trailers enabled.  :hmm:

even though weather and imdb work, that does not mean other internet related features work. the reason being that your dns may not be properly setup. xbmc will use hardcoded ips for weather, imdb, and a few others if the dns does not work. and that is not true for scripts as well.

anyhow, if nothing happens when you select either of the scripts, then that means you do not have the scripts. check your xbmc/scripts folder.

simply put: on 2005-01-15: they did work
on 2005-03-04 they don't

network configuration is the same
scripts are the same

i even copied the /scripts and /python directories from the old (working) version

i don't know why the heck i switched to the newest version. 2005-01-15 was working fine. Sad

there's your problem right there.

whatever ftp you used to transfer converted the filenames to lowercase.

that is incorrect. it should look like:

ncftp /e/apps/xbmc/python/lib > ls -al

<span style='font-family:tahoma'>couple of questions...

i grabbed those scripts for web radio, are there any for movie trailers? is there an official place to dload them from?

also what settings should i select in say flashfxp to stop it from changing everything to lowercase?</span>

i am not using flashfxp, so i cannot be of any help to you.

i am using total commander, which is quite nice. on tc when copying the files to the ftp server, uncheck the option to automatically convert them to lowercase.

ah ok thanks anyway hyperspaced.

i actually had a look and found the settings in flashfxp so if anyone would like to know, go to and click the 'options' up top then select 'preferences' from the drop-down box. in the window select the 'transfer' tab and have a look at the bottom left hand corner. there you'll see a 'filename case conversion' section. change all three settings to 'don't convert'. that's it your done!

i've also done a search on these scripts i'm after and i found http://chokemaniac.net has some files in the dload section for aqt browser and xbmc - kml browser. are these what i am after or are they just the skins for it? i think this website is owned by the actual creator of the project mayhem skin.
