[RELEASE] TVCatchup.com 2.0 with EPG

dj_gerbil i've a bit of weird issue coming - when I start xbmc and then start tvcatchup everthing works fine I press the info button and the information panel appears with the the channel logo and OSD. However, I have a number of radio stations setup on a custom button on my home screen these are strm file with the rtsp:// link within and I have a matching tbn to provide the logo when playing.

However, this is the weird thing that is happening if I then go back into tvcatchup and back into the info screen it is no longer the channel logo from before but the logo of the radio station.

Any ideas?

My guess is that because its getting the logos from TVC, XBMC is probably using cached images instead. I'm planning on getting it to download the logos once, then it'll use those logos each time, but that'll come in the next release, after I'm back from my holiday

I'll have a look at Tommy's updates when I'm back from my hols.

@ dj_gerbil do you think there will be any hd channels added to the plugin ?

Check the region on your ATV is set right

Hey DJ,

Quick question... When I watch any of the itv 2/3 or +1 channels they seem to have an incorrect ratio? As if it's been squeezed into 4:3?

Everyone looks skinny and I need to manually switch this in xbmc from normal to wide or similar every time I switch to one of these broadcasts (and it never remembers the setting).

This never used to be the case, all channels used to fille the screen as expected, unless they were broadcasting 4:3 content etc.

I'm on a windows box, using Eden final, and running both versions of your plugin.

I run at 1920x1200 and if ou use itv2 on those settings, you'll see what I mean.

Cheers for a great plugin,
Pat~

That's a weird one. I remember asking TVC_James about it a while ago, but I don't remember him telling me what might be causing it. I'll message him later and see what we can work out.
