arrbee99 1560 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 (edited) Are you using the beta server of Emby? But one after the other. Can you choose a channel group now inside the plugin? Beta (always). And yes I can... And, even better, I think its now playing a channel (exclamation mark). Pretty sure it is but I've got about 4 different ways of playing the same stuff though confident its MP thats playing it. But even though its playing at the moment running that schedule thing still gives the above mentioned Void error. Also, even though I've numbered the channels as... in Emby they're showing up as 1,2,3 etc. Not quite so sure about the playing bit now, have one channel thats only on MediaPortal and just get spinning circle for that Edit - (and no sign of anything playing in dashboard).

If you have more than one tv plugin in Emby i suggest you to rename the channels at the backend to differentiate them. But even though its playing at the moment running that schedule thing still gives the above mentioned Void error. Also, even though I've numbered the channels as... See my previous post at Luke. The plugin is broken now in the beta server in Emby they're showing up as 1,2,3 etc. Sorry, no channel numbers from MPExtended. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrbee99 1560 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Renamed so I can tell which is which. Doesn't appear to be playing anything via MediaPortal. Does plugin broken automatically mean it won't play anything, or its affecting some other aspect. Tried the preview in TVServer and it says 'Preview failed: Tune Cancelled' now. worked fine yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried the preview in TVServer and it says 'Preview failed: Tune Cancelled' now. worked fine yesterday. Only retrieving of schedules is brocken. Playback and all the other stuff is working here. Of course if the preview in TVServer doesn't work, it will not work in the plugin. It's possible that some of your other tv software has locked the tuner...

arrbee99 1560 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Quite possibly. Cleared caches and restarted machine and some channels played in the preview, and in Chrome (transcoding) and ET (direct play). Not sure why some don't, something to do with the source maybe. Will have to have another go later today. Thanks very much for your help. Shall probably pester you some more soon enough.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pünktchen 1258 Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 If some channels don't play in the preview window, you should ask for help in the MediaPortal forum. https://www.team-mediaportal.com/wiki/display/MediaPortal1/New+Zealand https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/calling-all-mp-new-zealanders-both-of-you.2321/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arrbee99 1560 Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 So just to mention, seeing as the object of the exercise, so far, is comparing TV start-up times, just a few results so far - ET, direct play - NextPVR plugin 8 sec Mediaportal plugin 4 sec Emby Hauppauge 8 sec Chrome, transcoding - NextPVR plugin 13 sec MediaPortal plugin 10 sec Emby Hauppauge 8 sec All playing the same channel.

pünktchen 1258 Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Good. If you create a RAM disc drive for the timeshift folder of MediaPortal you will get another one or two seconds, depending on where it is right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrbee99 1560 Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 (edited) Possibly. Not sure if I'm that adventurous yet though... Besides I need to see how things go on Fire TV which isn't actually going at all at the moment as the latest beta (.89a I think) for that is somewhat broke....

pünktchen 1258 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 @@Luke was it intentional that you've changed public List<string> Genres { get; set; } to public string[] Genres { get; set; } in TimerInfo of Mediabrowser.Controller/LiveTv in the beta server? If so, why not also for RecordingInfo and ProgramInfo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37065 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Because that property on timerinfo is very new and I didn't expect that any plugins would be using it. If I change the others then all the plugins will need updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
