Looking at http://docs.python.org/library/tempfile.html it appears that the "delete" parameter was added in Python 2.6, but by default Dharma/10.1 builds against a bundled version of Python 2.4.

Yes, this new version will work with eden only. Sorry.

Can't you create compatibility code? If it's only that one change that's needed, I can easily create a patch and post it on github that will use a fallback method to create the tempfile.

Well, no. Or rather I could, but:

- Eden is close, since we're in beta 1 now
- I don't have a 10.1 release to test it against
- I don't have time

so I don't want to.

Patches welcome though, so feel free to shoot me a pull request.

Really chauffed yoy're working on this again

Quick test on my Win7 laptop I get a script failed message with the following error in log

As soon as I can prize wife off the TV I'll try it on my main linux machine.
Just an observation but I notice you've dropped the ".video." from the plugin name, I'm just checking so as to get my menu shortcut correct.

Hmm, strange. I don't have that problem. Settings is from my own plugin, so that should work. Unless
doesn't work on windows as it should..

You're on eden-pre?

Oh, and regarding the .video. thing. I never had it locally .... So I guess I changed it a long time ago here.. It might make more sense to include it actually since it is a video plugin.
Something to ponder

Yep Eden Beta 1 - compiled 24th Dec

Right, I've made a small change, since the path calculation wasn't using my plugin ID. I've pushed it to github, so if you've got access you can get a new version now. Otherwise you'll have to wait a while.

Thanks, I'll get it shortly.

Hi,

very cool addon .. helps me increasing WAF for my HTPC

Unfortunately

- the latest addon version (plugin.makemkvbluray-1.1) raises script error (XBMC PVR Eden Beta Build 4. Jan 2012),

- the one from the #1 post here starts without error, the first minutes the drive is reading and working, something happens - but doesn't stream (nothing happens, XBMC freezes)

MakeMKV itself works, dumping and even streaming, tested with MPlayer ..

If you need log-info, plz tell where to find, I'll post it ..

So long
