FYI for anyone else that runs into this: Aperture was not updating the ApertureData.xml for me. This is required for my plugin to work.

The fix was to enable "Share previews with iLife and iWork" in Preferences->Previews.

iPhoto doesn't appear to need any particular setting to be enabled.

[jingai]

I have 2.0.0b2 ready for testing <pulled for now; wait for next beta>. The big new feature is of course support for Aperture, but I need people using iPhoto to test it as well to make sure the addition didn't break any existing functionality.

Please leave feedback here if you find anything wrong! If I don't hear anything by November 3, I will release 2.0.0.

hey,

sorry to report a "bug", but I think some iPhoto update broke it ?maybe? today?
I got the original script included in XBMC (1.9.3) running and everything working, saw some pictures and wanted to edit the on my mac,
so i started up iphoto and it said "updating media library" and i thought .. "skrewed" ... ;D

and that was it... afterwards i tried the two betas out there and unfortunately it's still not working:
so in detail:

using iPhoto 9.4.1 (701.67) and latest beta (2) out there.. leads to an python script error ...

im not sure how to get a good xbmc log output, or at least what u need, if u need anything, just tell me
thx a lot for anything so far :=)

cheers,
-

The version in the official addon repo should be working for iPhoto 9.4.1. Try this. Go to Settings->Addons and browse to the iPhoto addon. Uninstall it.

If you're on a Mac, browse to (using the Finder, not XBMC) "~/Library/Application Support/XBMC/addons" and delete "plugin.image.iphoto" as well as any that start with "jingai-plugin.image.iphoto".

Then reinstall the plugin in XBMC. Try to open the plugin and Update Library. Close XBMC and browse to "~/Library/Logs" and retrieve the "xbmc.log" file in there to send to me (use pastebin.com or whatever you like).

Basically, there are a couple of known issues with locking in the most recent beta that I'm trying to rule out as the culprit here.

[jingai]

New beta 2.0.0b3 is available here. I have redone most of the GUI. It should be faster and will now adjust the menus dynamically depending on which functions are currently supported.

I believe it will also solve several locking issues with the database that would require you to restart XBMC to solve.

Please test and report any findings here.

[jingai]

2.0.0 will be released likely on Sunday if I don't hear of any issues between now and then.

[jingai]

2.0.0b4 is available. It should make things work if you specified the path to your Library as a network filesystem (VFS).

[jingai]

No feedback? I see people are downloading it.. is it just working fine for everyone ?

Going to release 2.0.0 this weekend if I don't hear from anyone.

I am unable to view individual photos. When I click on the photo, I just get a blank screen. Here is the snippet from the xbmc.log:

Any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried images in a different album?

Does the path it is complaining about actually exist? Can you navigate to it in the Finder?

edit: What version of XBMC are you using, Eden or a Frodo nightly? And are you using the 2.0.0b4 version of my plugin, or 1.9.3?

Hello jingai
Thanks for your work.I'm from germany.
I notice in the pictures that contain a letter ö or ü
make problem.Plugin recognizes photo but it remains black.

I notice in the pictures that contain a letter ö or ü
make problem.Plugin recognizes photo but it remains black.

Is the letter in the photo title or in the filename?

edit: I just tested this here, with both characters in both the title and filename of a photo and it seemed to work fine. What version of XBMC are you using, Eden or a Frodo nightly? And are you using the 2.0.0b4 version of my plugin, or 1.9.3?

[meso]

I use eden with 2.0.0b4 on mac montain, ipad, atv 2.

I try now with Frodo nightly 2.0.0b4 on mac,work fine,no characters problems.

[jingai]

I try now with Frodo nightly 2.0.0b4 on mac,work fine,no characters problems.

I was afraid of that. I'll try to get it working on Eden tomorrow.

But, glad it is working for you now

[jingai]

Just checked things on Eden. I made a folder called "Halloween '04" (to check erickatz's issue) and inside it put a photo called "öorü.jpg" (for meso). Imported it into iPhoto and ran my plugin.. it displayed the image just fine. So I'm a tad confused.

Let's try this.. here is one more beta. Please give this a try and see if it works on Eden for you guys.
