Great...Highlighting (rather than hiding) is very helpful




Need to take a look at alternative guide providers now channel adding, removing and switching between providers is so easy with the WebGrab+Plus Configurator

[primaeval]

0.0.25
- default provider behaviour is now quick add channels (see last post by MikeKL)
- Remove Channels from context menu

Is there some easy way to get the channel logos or how do you guys handle that?

I personally start with this one:
TVLogo Downloader
http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=233068

If any logos are missing from there I add them using the Lab command in TV Guide Fullscreen to make a folder of logos from the addons.

Sometimes I even make my own with some imagemagick automation.

There are logo packs around if you ask Google.

Make sure you ask all the providers for written copyright first, in triplicate and with the official wax seal.

for unix users that don't run libreELEC, how do you get this add-on to run a 'mono'-d exe?

I don't know exactly but mono comes with many nixes.

Webgrab+Plus is already compiled for Linux if that helps.

I couldn't find an Android port. If you do please let us know.

I am trying to run on OSX.

There is a video add on out there, may be banned so I won't mention it (on of enen92s), that launches an EXE in a wine package. That works fine. I want to run WG in wine… with this add-on.

Looking at the ELEC version and this version I am way too tired to figure it out. I don't know if I should get the linux version modified for OSX or the windows version Wined.

I can get WG to run on OSX from the CLI, I just don't know how to get this add-on to call it.

I think the exe is just a wrapped up .net file so you should just need mono. It is a fairly simple command line program so I doubt if you need Wine.
Here is mono for osx.

I have mono installed. How do I get this add-on to call the WG exe in mono?

I made a .command file with 'mono /Users/mike/POS/exe/WG++.exe ~/POS/exe' inside and tried to call it with the add-on and get an exe/OS error.

XBMC logs seems to be down for registration. I'll post a tiny snippet

I'm much too poor to own a mac so I'll have to guess.
On windows you just run the exe with the argument of the folder containing the WebGrab++.config.xml file. Do not rename the file.
So you probably need to make some shell script or shortcut or whatever its called in appleland that says something like.
mono WebGrab+Plus.exe Folder
where Folder is the Output Folder in the Webgrab+Plus Configurator Settings.
You probably need the full path to the exe.
Then point the Program Setting to your script.

If you find out the exact command please post it here to help others.

Did you set up the Output Folder and run the Output Config command?
The call([exe,path]) command needs the exe and path ie Program and Output Folder.

I have mono installed. How do I get this add-on to call the WG exe in mono?

For the LibreELEC addon a short script is called by the webgrabplus configurator "webgrabplus.start" which then holds few lines of code required to run webrgaplus.exe and any additional optional scripts under mono

So create a similar short script for osx and call that via the configurator?

I did that.

I made a file called wg.command with this single line in it ''mono /Users/mike/POS/exe/WG++.exe ~/POS/exe''. I made it executable and i can launch WG from that file from Finder or Terminal.

The add-on displays 'Error 127'

When i load that file in this add-on i get this:

I tried moving the POS folder into your add-on folder and amending the command so that it is all local.
