RE: TV Guide Fullscreen - possibly the most powerful TV Guide in the world. ;) - Zeroxstaticlife - 2017-03-17

I have this working with my own setup but Im working on something for my mother in law. How do I import the PVR channels? When I hit the Import PVR button it doesn't do anything.

As long as you can normally play PVR channels it should add them to the script.tvguide.fullscreen section in the addons.ini file.
If they match a channel they should show up as TV Guide Fullscreen channels.
It might not be obvious but it was the easiest way to implement it.

Has anyone got TV Guide Fullscreen working on an Apple TV device?

Someone is having problems getting it working and I could do with some help.


RE: TV Guide Fullscreen - possibly the most powerful TV Guide in the world. ;) - Qwijibo - 2017-03-19

Hi primaeval,

Haven't tried the Apple TV but will give it a shot later and see if it works. I have had problems getting it to work on Linux though, I ended up giving up and using Windows. It's strange because I don't have problems with any other addon and it works fine on my Raspberry Pi running Libreelec.

I'm currently playing around with a skin and have a couple of question.

As an example, when setting the control type for channel info and using id 6005 is there a way to edit the actual font type or text wraps which are displayed on the screen? I want to show this in bold but can't seem to work out how. Changing the label makes no difference. I'm not sure if i'm missing something here?

Also I want to remap the i key which brings up the OSD when in a screen. I've been trying to remap the key with Kodi but I am at a loss as to which action to actually remap. I've tried everything?

Cheers

Thanks. Maybe the Linux issue is the same as the Apple issue. I use quite a lot of specialized libraries in this addon.

To change control fonts you have to use one of the font names that are in your skin font.xml file.
There are usually a few font sets to choose from too. Make sure you chose the one that is active.
eg for Confluence
addons\skin.confluence\720p\Font.xml
If you want something other than the ones in there you need to add them into that file.
It is probably best to fork the skin or your changes will get overwritten when the skin gets updated.
So change
Code:
<font>font13_title</font>
to
Code:
<font>font10</font>
for an example.

The OSD action is mapped up to the Show Info Command in Kodi.
You can see that in the Action Editor in Settings \ Lab1 and the ActionEditor.py file.
Code:
"OSD": ["ACTION_SHOW_INFO"],

Use the Kodi addon Keymap Editor to change
Global \ Navigation \ Show Info

or directly copy and edit the keyboard.xml keymap file
Code:
<keymap>
  <global>
    <keyboard>
      <i>Info</i>

Thanks,

I have the skin forked in the userdata folder so it should be fine with updates.

I have sent you a PM with the error logs when trying to open the guide with linux.

Cheers

You need to fork the Kodi skin too: Confluence or Estuary or whatever you are using if you add custom fonts and want them not to get overwritten on an update.

It looks like the Linux problem is a missing ssl certificate for Github.
That happens quite a lot in Kodi. I still haven't got to the bottom of how and whether they can be fixed by a user or if it is something to do with the Kodi distribution.
I try to remove https links if possible.

Thank you for your work on this! Quick question - where do I donate to you for your work?

Thanks!
And happy Sunday :-)

Thanks. This is just for fun.
Just share any useful info you come across or bugs you find.


RE: TV Guide Fullscreen - possibly the most powerful TV Guide in the world. ;) - Qwijibo - 2017-03-20

Is it possible, when selecting up to category bar that pressing up again will take you to the next channel up/bottom of the next page rather than getting stuck on the cat bar?

Is it also possible to change the order they are displayed?

Thanks

Everything has been working fine, until today. When trying to import latest guide data from custom xml, I am getting 'it was not possible to load program data' error. My guide is created using webgrab and stored in dropbox.
In the log files, I see this message: error: file "/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/addons/scrip.tvguide.fullscreen/source.py", line 395, in_updateChannelAndProgramListCaches

I have tried reset EPG data, but with no luck

Is it a Dropbox problem? They are trying to stop people direct linking.
Have you tried a different or local web server to compare?

If you have python installed you can create a simple web server on a folder with
Code:
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000

pm me a link to the xmltv file.
Are you using webgrab 2.0?
I had someone having problems recently which looked like it might have been a utf BOM mark problem but we didn't solve it.


RE: TV Guide Fullscreen - possibly the most powerful TV Guide in the world. ;) - gillmacca - 2017-03-20

over night guide was created with webgrab 2.0. Also tried this afternoon to create guide with webgrab 2.0.3 beta.
I have made no changes to webconfig file.
PM sent

Do you want me to send you the log file as well, incase their is more info in there?
