tv show next aired script - new features for skinners

you can safely ignore the error.

the script will retry 5 times before giving up.

tvrage is slow, nothing we can do about.

Is there a way to add a widget to a homepage to display the next shows airing. I know you can do this for the day of using the code below.

<label>$INFO[Window(Home).Property(NextAired.1.NextTitle)]</label>

My problem is that I do not have shows that air everyday, so I would like it to skip to the next show, which could be two days away and display it. Is this possible?

hmm...nope, we only list shows airing today.

Quick feature request, apologies in advanced.

Is there any chance we could possibly get a plot recap property or is this not possible with the TVRage api?

Ah, well that's a shame. Thanks for looking into it though.

Quick question. I ran into a bit of a problem I can't seem to get passed. I currently have all of the day lists inside of a grouplist that's set to the width of a single item. See image below to better understand what I just described.



The issue I'm seeing is when I scroll left / right, everything works beautifully until I get to the last list (id=206). It doesn't appear on screen inside of the boundaries of the grouplist even though I can scroll up and down to change the selected item. Is this a problem with the grouplist not being filled correctly; thinking there are all 7 lists available (at 400px each) even though there are only 4 lists showing and only moving 1600px instead of the required 2400px?

I tried adding a <visible> tag to make sure the list isn't empty (using: !IsEmpty(Window(Home).Property(TVGuide.[day]List)) before adding it to the grouplist but that ended up with XBMC not loading the window at all.

I also tried adding slide animations to a group control, spacing the lists out manually and moving the whole group 400px depending on the current selected list but that didn't work as the lists were then visible as they moved left / right across the screen. It would be awesome if groups acted as clipping masks where controls drawn outside of the group's perimeter were clipped but that's going off-topic.

Any ideas how to solve this?

The background check seems to have stopped working for me. I'm using -

<onload condition="System.HasAddon(script.tv.show.next.aired) + Container.Content(tvshows)">RunScript(script.tv.show.next.aired,backend=True)</onload>

I'm wondering if it's more an OpenELEC problem though seeing as the script hasn't changed.

Any clues?
