uhh ok, First post did not say how much. I donated $5 on tuesday and got no reply or anything from pm so I take it I did not donate enough.

Or life got the way and he wasn't able to get to donor accounts this week.

He's most likely busy! He probably just missed it.

God damn, alright already all I did was ask a question then I get you guys jumping all over me. Yeah ok I get it people are busy thats why he hasn't been on the forums all week answering questions. I only sent 2 pm's so yeah he probably just missed it.

Cool your jets, man! That wasn't an attack. It wasn't from me atleast. Just saying he may be busy. I donated 5 bucks, too! Well, it might've been 10 but my intentions was for a 5 spot. Long story! Anyways, patience young grasshopper.

Hey there people,
I'm sure this has been asked already and possibly answered, but...
...is it possible to play only the first unwatched episode in a tv show?

Example: I've watched all star trek series, except for star trek enterprise, there I've seen just the first season.
So I'd want a channel showing all st:tos, st:tng, st:voyager, st:ds9 [...] st:enterpriseS01 and finally st:enterpriseS02E01.
Once I see that, I want to show all of the above, plus star trek: enterprise S02E02.
...and so on.

I'm pretty sure it can be done, but it involves some clever tinkering with the channel creator thingie and smart playlists.
I could probably figure it out by myself, but if someone has already done it and could share their experience, it would save me quite a bit of time

Cheers.

You could look at LazyTV if you want that. It can be done but requires work on your part

@johnnie Create a playlist: Contains-Star Trek / Play count is 0/ Group by year / Order by sort title (should work)
I was going to suggest order by date aired, but I guess that option isn't available(should be)

Hi
it seems that channels are populated after around 2-3 hours.
it seems that nothing is running but after 30 minutes i see on channel has been created.


this is the same for TV genre and movie playlists.
any ideas? i dont see anything in the logs.

Hi Luna,

I have a minor fix for blip.tv rss feeds (for example http://blip.tv/redlettermedia/rss). Right now the time and descriptions are not parsed out correctly. Here's what I changed to make it work:

I changed line 2621:

Code:

if epdesc == '':
    epdesc = eptitle

To:

Code:

if epdesc == '':
    epdesc = feed.entries[i]['blip_puredescription']                        

if epdesc == '':
    epdesc = eptitle

Line 2625 From:

Code:

epdesc = uni(self.trim(epdesc, 500, '...'))

To

Code:

epdesc = uni(self.trim(epdesc.replace('\n', '').replace('<br />', ''), 500, '...'))

And finally lines 2635:

Code:

try:
    runtimex = feed.entries[i]['itunes_duration']
except Exception,e:
    runtimex = 1350
    pass

To:

Code:

try:
    runtimex = feed.entries[i]['itunes_duration']
except Exception,e:
    runtimex = ''
    pass

try:
    if runtimex == '':
        runtimex = feed.entries[i]['blip_runtime']
    except Exception,e:
        runtimex = ''
        pass

if runtimex == '':
    runtimex = 1350

I'm sure there's a better way to do it, but it seems to be working for me so far.

Also on a side note is there anyway to disabled file "stacking" (When I have a bunch of short youtube videos the EPG says the Channel Name (Stacked))? I'd like to be able to select and individual video even if the run time is short.

Luna,

I cant seem to update to the latest version. i have tried 4.1, 4.2 and now 4.3.

Each time,

I have deleted all files in

.xbmc\userdata\script.pseudotv.livem (Removed Folder)
.xbmc\addons (removed script.pseudotv.live.master.zip)

rebooted, just to make sure.
installed new zip
made one minor configuration change (linux 64) os
each time PTVL hanfgs on auto tune.


Latest log
https://www.dropbox.com/s/cw7odhm6g366bze/xbmc.log

3.7 works fine if i re-install.

any clues?

::Update
restarted XBMC
Turned Autotune off
relauched PSTVL
PSTVL ask "Would you like PseudoTV Live to Auto Tune Channed?" --- Say no

get error Unable to find any channels
Setting windows appears.

restarted - PSTLV
used old Settings2.xml
launched PSTLV
PSTLV Crashed

updated log. -- https://www.dropbox.com/s/xhdnderfyfk28g...20Copy.log

OK - got it working after i set the XMLTV directory for live channels.


Maybe just me. but i think something is wrong with auto tune on initial setup.

i decided to do a small test.
took a new settings2 and only put one playlist.
i limit the media per channel to 250.
started PTVL and its started to populate the channel but as of now its reached 1096 ( i have 1200 from that genre) and then its just froze on it.
i checked the playlists it generates and the
<limit>250</limit>

only exist on TV Playlists and not on movie playlists.
didnt matter though because it just froze on them

2-3 hrs that's unusually long... if using livetv limit xmltv to a few days and set media limit to something other then unlimited. I don't see issues with playlist...

I'll add iTunes duration but the rest looks feed specific, thanks for the info

You can use the bypass option in global.py put full name of channel you don't want stacked.

Ahem...pharm is awful people. I say this mainly because he has working music channels and I don't. And I'm just hating lol.
I keeed I keeed pharm is good people.

Donors need to relax and realize Luna runs this plug In and he'll get you your code when he gets it to you. I know how time consuming maintaining a skin can be, I can't imagine the time sink maintaining this plug in has to be.

i will try only playlist without the PVR enable.
maybe they are conflicting.
the test i did was ONLY with 1 playlist channel and nothing else. so no xmltv was involved during the making of this test.

the only thing that is different is that it is using hebrew characters as movie titles.
i tried with a playlist of only 50 movies and it didnt start.

[EZ1976]

To continue the playlist not populating, i put a playlist with only live shows.
from 60 shows it stopped on number 14 and i got this in the log
