I'm missing BBC HD, BBC ONE HD, ITV1 HD & Channel 4 HD, also noticed NK World or something missing

Thanks, I'll have a look.

Does anybody know the exact logic on how these servicereference names are build?

I took a look at the picons and found that for example;

ITV1 should be picon 1_0_19_2710_801_2_11A0000_0_0_0.png

the code in the xml file is;

HD Channels ITV1 HD 1:0:19:2710:801:2:11A0000:0:0:0::ITV1 HD http://192.168.0.99:8001/1:0:19:2710:801...:0:0::ITV1 HD C:\Users\Windows User\Documents\picon\1_0_19_2710_801_2_11A0000_0_0_.png

If you notice, it's clipping the last 0 off the requested file "_0_0_" instead of "_0_0_0" I will try renaming the picon when my box finishes it's rebuild (unrelated broken stuff) and let you know but it would be nice to have it fixed and not have to rename picons each time

Silverfox could probably help you determine how the picon name is derived, I'll PM him and ask him to take a look for us

No, do not rename your picon filenames - that's cheating

I just pushed a change in the logic: The servicereference will be split after the 10th ':' character. Hopefully this will fix even the most uncommon ones (IIRC I do not have a single channel in my favourites list with a double "::")

I couldn't test this within XBMC yet (did just a simple "hello world"-style check whether the string has been spit properly) - so it would be much appreciated if you could have a look and report back...

Nice one, only problem is I'll need a rebuild of it I don't have the neccesary tools on the PC to build it. Also, from earlier, it seems that seperating the addon folder from the rest of XBMC-Win32 breaks it, there must be more files involved elsewhere i.e. the addon must be present in more than just one folder or something

one thing to remeber guys if you are creating the picons yrself then they all need to be in index png format

and named according to the correct channel ref

why not try using my ones to start once you got them showing then you can address your own picons

Hi Silverfox,

I'm actually using your picons, I think what we couldn't figure out was why each picon had a particular name and how the naming convention went. Not sure if Jdemski has nailed it yet but seemingly pushed some change. Essentially what we have at the minute is an option in the addon to point to a picon folder of your picons and the addon requests a picon from that folder. Problems arise when the request isn't the same as what you've called the picon.

You should give it a go it should work with any Enigma 2 box, this is the windows version of XBMC including the addon

EDIT: Wrong link, this is the right one

I'm using the picons that are also on the enigma2 boxes...

The problem is that I seem to have made some wrong assumptions about the naming convention, i.e. my first guess was that the service reference would be always 30 characters long...

no service refs can be any number combo what i suggest it get yr script to use a common and i would say use the _ [underscrores]

you will always have 9 underscores
