i haven't tested it with myth tv 0.17 so i can't say for sure if you'll have problems. i try to maintain compatibility with older versions by leaving in old code if i notice that something has changed with a newer version. unfortunately, the new stuff that i built was using a myth tv 0.18 database so i don't know what it looked like for 0.17.
fyi, i have been running myth tv since version 0.12 or so... i haven't lost any of my settings or recordings when upgrading. my only rule for upgrading is to stick with the official releases as opposed to running builds from cvs. so far it has paid off...

hello all,
i have the latest (as of yesterday) python scripts on xbmc out of cvs a few days ago talking to a mythtv backend running the latest cvs. i've found two places in the code that need to be slightly modified to allow the scripts to connect and acquire guide data, etc. everything appears to be working, except i can;t actually view any video. the shows are being recorded in mpeg4 format with mp3 audio. i've heard rumors that i might need to recompile mplayer inside xbmc in order to view the myth recordings. is this actually true, or am i doing something wrong? any pointers would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

wierd. i tried your script. i can play the vids in windows but not on xbmc. they appear as .nuv files, but when i open them with gspot it reports that no codecs are installed, even though they play.

recorded shows and xbmcmythtv hangs the whole console if i go over a record which contains a description that has more than, i guess, 256 characters. i've had this problem for a long time, but forgot to mention it here. workaround is to delete the description in mysql directly... :nuts:
