Hey
i am scraping my media using sratim.co.il so all the info (genre,title and info) are in hebrew.
i put them all in playlists so i can set them up in PTVL but it seems that some are giving me some issues.
still have no idea why since it did work flawlessly a few versions ago but i updated to get DVB-T broadcasts.
Luna says it may be because we are using a non-english info and titles. hopefully he will resolve this sometime in the future

It's not magic logs = fix

sent you a few times some logs but you said you didnt see anything in them.
i tried with NFS & SMB & Local DB & MY SQL.
every few times i manage to populate a full set of channels and then it will get stuck again.
since most of the channels work just fine with hebrew info & title, i think it has something to do with a few media types that causes the channel to stop populating.
i had something like this with the original PTV and it was resolved (it didnt manage to read a certain type of files)
if i put the checkbox under debugging, will it tell me what media it is populating in the channels?
i am trying to pinpoint which type of media or file is causing this to halt (maybe FLV or certain MP4 files)? maybe a illegal character that i can remove?

Yes but a newer one may shed light on the issue as I track the problem...
Also sending me as much info as you could would also be helpful, seting2, m3u to channel that has the issue along with logs.

@luna

Just downloaded the latest development version...WELL DONE Sir. I've got 87 channels of local and streaming content at my fingertips and have essentially created my own cable service thanks to you. I started storing this content unsure of what would come of it. It initially started as a time-capsule sort of project to save my favorite cartoons...to make sure my future children would be able to enjoy them. Now with a library that has grown far larger than I ever dreamed, I almost feel vindicated. THIS is why I was backing all of that up, THIS is how I plan to use it...

Everything is running perfectly. The default skin looks PERFECT. All artwork loads fast and is in the correct location.

Couldn't be happier....

...Thanks for all your hard work.

Donation sent.

you got it.
i will minimize the settings2.xml to only the channels that get stuck and will send you as much logs and files possible.
BTW i just checked each and every tv show i have (120 shows in total).
i added one show and started the plugin
added another one and started the plugin.

went by each and everyone and i noticed that each one in its own genre is working but if i have a playlist called "random tv" which just sort everything randomly. it will get stuck
if i set a playlist for "action, adventure and sifi" that consist of any one of the 3 genre, the playlist will get stuck.


anyway i hope you will see it in your logs

Luna - here you go https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/69095366/Luna.rar

inside you will find the settings2.xml and 2 sets of cache folder & xbmc logs:
one with only a few shows that didnt get stuck
one with full library scrape that get stuck.


let me know what you need next

Just in case my post got lost in the fold... http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...pid1747322

I included anything relevant I can think of, and a log.

Hey Luna, I have a quick question. In post 2, you mention how to hide the seekbar from appearing. Have I altered DialogSeekBar.xml correctly?

Code:

<window>
    <defaultcontrol>1</defaultcontrol>
    <visible>[Player.Seeking | Player.DisplayAfterSeek | Player.Paused | Player.Forwarding | Player.Rewinding] + ![Window.IsVisible(VideoOSD) | Window.IsVisible(MusicOSD)]</visible>
    <visible>Window.IsActive(fullscreenvideo) + !Window.IsActive(script.pseudotv.TVOverlay.xml) + !Window.IsActive(script.pseudotv.live.TVOverlay.xml)</visible>
    <animation effect="fade" start="0" end="100" time="200">WindowOpen</animation>
    <animation effect="fade" start="100" end="0" time="200">WindowClose</animation>
    <controls>
. . .

It occasionally is visible when pausing and changing channels; I want to be sure the error doesn't exist between the chair and keyboard. Thanks!

Also, has anyone had issues with PTVL locking up their system entirely? I can't even SSH into my computer to shut it down. When I restart my computer, I'll enable PTVL debugging and try to replicate the problem. Logs will follow. I'm not sure if it's an XBMC problem or a PTVL problem...but we'll find out!

[ryanmcclure]

So, it crashed again. Here is the log:

https://copy.com/kzO9EFyrw4AU

I noticed that as the playback stutters for a few seconds every minute or so (which is an indicator of crashing soon), the log file would be about 3 minutes behind. I wonder if it's an XBMC issue. Anyway, here's my log...(Ignore the stupid CEC stuff... ) Thanks Luna! I really appreciate any help...XBMC logs are Greek to me!

This isn't a problem with PseudoTV Live, I suggest you use a stable XBMC platform android is still very buggy...

[ryanmcclure]

It's actually an R Pi, not Android--I can't even imagine using it on my Android phone...

I'll do a stable install. I hope it works! When this works, my PTVL setup will be 99% complete. Thanks Luna.

Log shows an ARM processor, either way same deal!

[ryanmcclure]

Understood! I had a stupid moment and forgot Androids ran ARM...My internet privileges should be revoked now. I'll do some messing around to get it stable, and hopefully that'll work!

You will most likely need to disable all the ptvl goodies.

Okay stupid me forgot to turn on debugging. Here's a new log with debugging turned on: http://pastebin.com/Zzt4Lf2i

As best I can tell the important part is this bit that keeps repeating over and over. That's when it stops moving forward building channels.

Code:

hey
i was right!! i cleaned up the DB and started adding one show at a time.
each time checked the plugin.
one of the shows screwed it!!!... i am trying to pinpoint the episode that is causeing the population to halt but can you add maybe a "ignore on errors" in your code?
if it cant read it, ignore it?

Yes but a newer one may shed light on the issue as I track the problem...
