There's a build for windows. Sadly still no demo for OS X.

Look here http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...build+os+x

If you manage to update it with Jezz_x's improvements don't be shy to share Smile

@Jezz_X

Maybe send your improvements as PR to PVR repo?

Can't seem to get this demo to work anymore. In fact can't get the demo without these updates to work either.
14 Okt nightly -> Confluence -> install demo from zip -> Enabled add-on- > Enable live tv -> Click Home Menu Live TV -> Error
No PVR Clients have been started yet.

Copied over Jezz_X extra stuff -> Reset -> Same error.

Wrong version?
-edit- solved

The information is pretty scarse.. is there an addon for OSX that could be used for skinning the PVR section without actual working PVR hardware?

Hi, if you install one of the latest RC's of XBMC you will find it is now shipped with the PVR Demo Client, preloaded with some dummy data. Should be as simple as starting XBMC and enabling the PVR Demo Client. Then the Live TV options should start to appear / work. The demo data provided is pretty simple but enough to get skinning done. This is where i created XBMC PVR Sim which creates better fake data for screenshot purposes for those of us like me and you who don't have any PVR Hardware.

Hope that helps.

For some reason the icons aren't showing up and when i click on the Channel the PAC-man video doesn't play.

Any pointers on how to get this going?

Code:
<channel>
      <name>4 ME</name>
      <radio>0</radio>
      <number>2</number>
      <encryption>0</encryption>
      <icon>special://home/addons/pvr.demo/data/4me.png</icon>
      <stream>special://home/addons/pvr.demo/data/demostream.mp4</stream>
    </channel>
Old newbie trying his hardest to get his head around skinning lol, expect loads of questions :-)

It may be hard but the challenge of learning something new is fun :-)

    </channel>

Now that the pvr.demo addon has been directly included with the xbmc installation, the pvr,demo folder is installed directly under the addons folder in the xbmc root directory, for this reason one needs to change the paths in the PVRDemoAddonSettings.xml file form special://home to special://xbmc, after doing that the display of the icons and the pacman video will work

Is there a way to add dummy timers to PVRDemoAddonSettings.xml like you can for recordings? I tried out using guesses but with no luck. Are they even stored in this xml?

The timers section is one of the few remaining PVR things I can't test using the demo add-on.

I added this code for the contents and changed the labels to their corresponding ListItem.Property() type for testing, and then removed it afterwards.

PHP Code:

Thanks Smile Still, would be nice if we had a way to do this from within the add-on.
