I don't really know what I'm looking at in the cache file, but I don't think I see any errors. It's just trying to load cache content from a different profile that has different server information. In this case, instead of pointing to userdata>profiles>myprofile>addon_data, it goes to userdata>addon_data (masterprofile). I just don't understand why a brand new profile using MQ5 skin would do such a thing. That's why I'm not sure if it's the cache or the skin, because the error goes away if I remap those default menu items.

 

I hope this helps....

Running the beta repo now and on the latest stable server

 

@ - Great improvement on the image handling buddy, everything is much faster and more stable for me (after the cache is built of course) -- since I like the dancing hot dog on my built in XBMC show info screen  :D (where the disc art rolls across is very stable - I'm not sure if it was looking for disc art each time previously so the improvement could have been on the skin side as well) Overall, backing out and re-entering the movies and tv shows library is much quicker now

Version: XBMB3C 0.9.702, Skin Aeon MQ5, XBMC Gotham 13.2, MBS 3.0.5424.1

 

I think I've just experience a caching issue. I've created a new profile with my server information and it keeps trying to pull information from a different server information I have put on my masterprofile. I have not copied any settings. I'm posting here, because I don't know if it's a skin issue. If it is, then Aeon MQ5 might needs a quick update for default home menu items.

 

What I did: I've tried different skins like Titan and Eminence. I've not experienced the issue.

 

Error in XBMB3C log: The following error results in XBMB3C failing. This happens when trying to access Movies and TV Shows after putting the new server information. To work around the problem, I have to repath movies and TV shows (the default home menus) or else it will keep trying to use a previously created cache (it persists after XBMC restarts). It seems to ignore the server IP address I've configured.

I'm using 0.9.702 on my raspberry pi and am getting a similar JSON issue (this shows up when I simply navigate to "TV Shows"... I don't get it when navigating to Movies... I also don't get the error when navigating to "All TV").  Same issue as reported above?  Here's the exception:

version 0.9.703 is now available to test the changes mentioned above.

I'm now getting a different issue (which happens when I launch the addon... I can't even get to the main menu any more).

Awesome job! However, I do not see any improvements when I'm browsing my anime. I use absolute numbering so it's common to see +100 episodes under Season 1. It still takes 15+ seconds to load the right list view.

 

 

The latest beta version has a half-fix for slow episode loading.  If you turn OFF 'Show Indicators' it will be significantly faster loading widgets and large episode lists.

 

Over the weekend I hope to come up with a solution where 'Show Indicators' does not add nearly as much delay.

Right - it was causing a slow-down even when not enabled before - that is what I fixed...

I do not use Show indicators. I believe it is useless to enable them when using MQ5 skin. Therefore, I do not think the indicators are the cause to slowing down the loading of +100 episodes, in my case.... Oh also, I do not use widgets with MQ5, they never loaded properly.

 

[Version 0.9.703] The good news is the latest beta version did fix the buffering I had when loading +100 episodes. It now loads instantly, so awesome job guys! I will keep testing further and report back if there's anything wrong.  :)

Were you guys able to reproduce my issue above re: entry1 must be a Tuple or a List?  I am getting it on multiple PCs and can't even get the main menu to show (whereas that used to load just fine).

Had to completely uninstall the beta repo, i got "Script error" - "Cant connect to server"

The log said: 

  1. 18:29:01 T:3059798560   ERROR: GetDirectory - Error getting plugin://plugin.video.xbmb3c/

After completely uninstalling beta and installing stable version, it worked again like a charm!

A new version is up 0.9.705

 

This version contains changes to the alternate Info screen that would need 1080XF to see the changes...but it should be backwards compatible with other skins so please test it. Another change is in the theme music area, it will now play theme music when viewing the alternate info screen. 

 

Edit - version 0.9.705 has been pushed with a tiny change to choose alternate fanart background images with the info screen instead of the first.

 

---

 

With regards the problems posted above...I cannot reproduce them and the log does not make it obvious why it is going wrong for a lot of you. As xnappo requested, please post a log with level 2 debug on...ideally in the format shown in my signature as it makes it easier to read :)

I'm getting this error with 0.9.705. At first, I was simply trying to navigate to my movies. XBMC then stopped responding. I've restarted XBMC and I'm now able to navigate to my movies. However, the Attribute error repeats itself in the log after every =====XBMB3C Stop=======.

Thanks, yes I am also seeing that error in my logs..no idea why at the minute and it does not seem to effect anything. Perhaps it's cache related, have you tested it with the cache disabled?

I have just retried with the original cache system and it's still happening (I've restarted XBMC in between, to make sure)

Ok, I had a further look and if I am reading the logs correctly it is failing at this line in DownloadUtils:

def __del__(self):

        xbmc.log("\rURL_REQUEST_REPORT : Total Calls : " + str(self.TotalUrlCalls) + "\r" + self.TrackLog)

then for some reason the xbmc attribute is not set. If this is the correct place then it is only logging that is failing so it could easily be removed. But I will let @@xnappo and @ have a look to see what they think.

A new version is up 0.9.705

 

This version contains changes to the alternate Info screen that would need 1080XF to see the changes...but it should be backwards compatible with other skins so please test it. Another change is in the theme music area, it will now play theme music when viewing the alternate info screen.

 

Edit - version 0.9.705 has been pushed with a tiny change to choose alternate fanart background images with the info screen instead of the first.

With regards the problems posted above...I cannot reproduce them and the log does not make it obvious why it is going wrong for a lot of you. As xnappo requested, please post a log with level 2 debug on...ideally in the format shown in my signature as it makes it easier to read :)

Have you had any chance to look at the theme music volume fading issue mentioned in the confluence thread? I have disabled theme music in the settings atm
