DaN 47 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Hi chessdragon, Other collection types doesn't work for me, I simpley select media folders, go for photo or video collection types, and nothing happens Sent from my HTC Butterfly using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chessdragon136 677 Posted June 26, 2014 Author Share Posted June 26, 2014 (edited) Sigh this is the problem when trying to code on a train on the way home! I tested with a music video collection type and it seemed to work fine.. At least it showed me the video that was in there. You did change the setting in the settings and save it to true first?

chessdragon136 677 Posted June 26, 2014 Author Share Posted June 26, 2014 Yes thanks and it is all correct.. Can take it down now. It must be a tv series issue - bear with me but it'l take a day or so to track down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaN 47 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I enabled experimental as true, photo collection never opens, video or mix type collections opens, show backdrops, but when selecting any nothing happens Sent from my HTC Butterfly using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBers 6782 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 (edited) OK, thanks Chess. Are you able to put up the version before v0.425 that you put up tonight please? Was it v0.421. Edited June 26, 2014 by CBers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chessdragon136 677 Posted June 26, 2014 Author Share Posted June 26, 2014 Photos and Music wont open as there is no code there to play / show anything. Others like you say will open but not go further - that is what i kind of expected. On the plus side it does show that my code for adding new settings into the file works ok and it is recognised in the program. That's the main element in this update. I'm really trying to get music out soon... Photos i don't know how to display them due to a limitation on the server Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaN 47 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Could you share more about the photo limitation? Also, for the video collection, I group then into folders, but when they displayed, all the clips were displaying with no grouping Sent from my HTC Butterfly using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chessdragon136 677 Posted June 27, 2014 Author Share Posted June 27, 2014 Photo limitation is all due to the general design of the Samsung SDK which expects for other sources to push data to the tv (DLNA style) rather than to get data and display it.. so far i cannot make any image viewer that displays images from the server using the mediabrowser3 api. As for the latter how does it display? Also - new version v0.425a out to fix error in v0.425 (I broke tv series!) Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaN 47 Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 (edited) It displays the clips which are the lowest level, I expect to see the folders first, then when I click on them I find the clips, but any way it's OK for now ; when will be able to show clip Metadata?

chessdragon136 677 Posted June 28, 2014 Author Share Posted June 28, 2014 @@DaN - did it fix it for you too? It may be that as I push out my updates remotely the file failed to update before pushing out the update. Thats the best case scenario. Onto other good news, v0.450 is out. A semi major release, for users who want to test, Music playback is implemented in a relatively basic form... Just enable experimental mode. Music will playback throughout navigation and can be accessed once closed by the music icon in the top right. I won't say more, I'll let those willing to test test and let me know. As a note I do expect lots of problems, I am pushing this out a few weeks earlier than expected but since I know the next few weekends i'm busy i thought i may as well push it out now and fix issues on a variable basis. Personal Note - Find screensaver settings and enable screensaver on user choice (to save screenburn) Enjoy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
