CBers 7118 Posted June 3, 2014 Posted June 3, 2014 Not sure if it's the plug-in or the Channels infrastructure, but I can't sort any of the content, either the list of netcasts or the episodes within each netcast. TIA.
Koleckai Silvestri 1151 Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Can't wait to test it out. Thanks for the contribution.

TIA. Well, if I remember correctly when I last looked it kinda worked like this: Netcasts ListSortable only by Default(Name)/Name, the netcasts folders don't have a release date or runtime associated with them so those two sort types are ignored. Episodes ListSortable by Default(Name), Name, Release Date, and Runtime. However, it is worth noting that for episodes lists the name and release date sort types produce the same order, since the episodes are already listed by names that correspond to their release order. Runtime, on the other hand does produce a sort order that is exactly by running length (shortest to longest). For the Episodes List I made sure to wire up the ability to sort by both Name and Release Date so that this Channel is prepared for any future developments that may be made to the sorting/channel backends in the mb server. But really, atm, yeah Netcasts Lists are effectively only sortable by Name, and Episode Lists are only sortable to the equivalent of Name & Runtime 1

im85288 1493 Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 For what it's worth I am also experiencing issues with Twit. It works fine via the web client but is not retrieving the channel details on the Roku...or actually for me via the API to get the channels data. This is the error shown when attempting to get the channel data via the API:
snazy2000 344 Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 If the same I'd works on web client but not in api then I'd of thought it's an api issue Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk

Luke 40105 Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 it's up to date. just a bug where it's checking the windows catalog for updates
im85288 1493 Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 Ah ok then it still does not work for me @@flexage - the same error message as shown above is produced when I attempt to get the channel data. Looking into it in even more detail this call works: http://192.168.1.214:8096/mediabrowser/Channels/d51e6f2cc27dee8bfb984be260b83039/Items?StartIndex=0&UserId=c0be427190e662f0ed319e512f6d72ab But this one fails: http://192.168.1.214:8096/mediabrowser/Channels/d51e6f2cc27dee8bfb984be260b83039/Items?UserId=c0be427190e662f0ed319e512f6d72ab So it looks like the StartIndex is incorrectly a required field?
im85288 1493 Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 Ok thanks, My point is that all other channels successfully return the channel data without a StartIndex provided. This one is the only one (I have tested) that fails with a InvalidOperationException when the StartIndex is not included in the request. Not a big deal as I can add it to all requests..just odd.
flexage 125 Posted June 9, 2014 Author Posted June 9, 2014 Hmmm, I'll take a look see at my code... I might have left something erroneous in there, or it may be that I'm implementing a server feature that the other channels aren't to do with paging and filtering... Probably the latter tbh
Redshirt 1487 Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 I'm able to surf this channel on Android without providing a startIndex. 3
Luke 40105 Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 start index is not required but you do have to respect the channel's max page size - for now, the lower channel is i think 50, so if you limit your calls to say, 30 at a time, that should last you a while
