For those wanting to develop plugins and skins...
are there any opensource community common plugin libraries? i know a few plugins are open source, and have a library they give out. but is there an actual detected open source library? i was going to the media inset (i havent decided on a name yet), but was also thinking about other...
sub, I'd added the "Exit" option to the System plugin - it used Application.Exit() Then when you posted the AeonLike main menu example, I noticed its exit functionality called EventBus.GetInstance().Notify("EXIT") I was just wondering if you had a list of events that nPVR will respond to....
is there something equivelent in NPVR to PluginHelperFactory.getPluginHelper().ForceRepaint(); ? I have a function for displaying info as private void setText(String Text) {
OK... If I currently have a UiScreen displaying, I can display a title and image using (pseudo): screenHT = "My Title"; screenHT = myImage; screenUI.Args = screenHT; Now, when I update the title/image on the screen, by button press or whatever, the title is getting updated, but the image is...
I am trying to change the location and size of a field using my own placement but I can't recall how, I was able to populate the tvguide before but I've lost the test code I have in the skin location="@locX,@locY" size="@sizeX,@sizeY" I've tried with args = "0.0m"; args = 0.0m; and d...
What interface(s) do I need to implement in order to make a alternative main menu plugin? Also, what needs to be changed in the settings screen or config file in order to use it once available?
I can test the return from DigitalRecorder.DeviceStandard with my capture card and get "DVB-T". I assume its other options are "DVB-C" and "DVB-S" (S2?). Would it ever return anything else? I guess an AnalogRecorder is always just that. Analog. This isn't really for anything important; I...
Can anyone post a simple example of a plugin that extends from SimpleButtonListPlugin? I think I understand the basics of it, with it holding a ref to a UiList object, but so far my fumbling hasn't resulted in a list appearing on screen :( Do we just use the uiList variable from the base...
I notice there are season and episode fields in the epg table (that on some records contains data that doesn't look right). Are these reserved or can we modify them? If we can modify them could NPVR be changed to use these in the filename as name_S##E##.ts ? Finally are you playing to bring...
When you have a DVD in the drive WMP 11 shows the metadata for it (title, cover image, chapter list etc). Does anyone know if this can be hooked into somehow from an external program? Or any other resource or method of looking up DVD metadata based on the DVD disc. Google (for me) has come back...
Can a plugin direct NPVR to use a different named font or colour for an element than than the default defined by the skin? Using @is values to do this is cumbersome and I figure I must be missing something. Martin
Hi! Just a quick question: Is it possible to use absolutely positions for images within skins of nPVR? I started to "reactivate" my old WiP Skin and want to port it to nPVR. But the procentual positions are not good and precise enough for me, so that the skin isn't looking well (enough for...
Hi sub, If you've got a minute, could you look over the following for me. It relates to the "Update EPG" command I have in the System plugin... What I have seems to work (most of the time), but I'd just like to know I've done it the way you'd expect. The few problems I've seen relate to...
i've written a util to help make ntfs links to other drives for chosen dir. basically it pops up a chooser box with your Recordings dir in it, choose a dir/series to move off to another drive, then another popup for where to move it to, then starts moving existing data. after it's all moved, it...
Wowza. I'm feeling a little as if the rug has been pulled out from beneath me. So. Where do I begin? After adding random references to DLLs, there seems to be some interesting interfaces in nutility.dll with promising names. IScreenPlugin I'm guessing, with IVideoPlugin for OSD goodies? ...
Sub, when you have a chance, could you provide a sample of how to do popup's in NPVR fashion. I can get the popup itself but adding the left buttons to it are a mystery. Thanks, Martin
Are there any documents regarding plugin development for NPVR? Or at the very least some good forum posts on the subject?
Here's something I've noticed with a few VM tests and fresh installs: I'm working on a duplicate of GBPVR's System plugin, which I've named "System" in its GetName() method. After dumping its DLL in Plugins\System it shows up in NPVR's settings dialog as "system" (with a small 's'), both in...
new Wiki page: http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Tips/Net2hipsend For everyone who has trouble blasting with HIP and hipsend n hipwsend, try this one... It does the same thing but uses the http server built into hip to communicate with. It also has added benefit of not needing 'Interact with...
With Video Plugin bits (allegedly) returning with the next GBPVR release, is anybody working on (or planning to work on) a resurrected Caller ID plugin? If not, I will do so. But no point in me starting one if somebody else is already working on it.
Would it be possible to get an Initialise(UiList.ViewMode viewMode) override so that the list does not have to be populated twice if you want to start in ViewMode.COVERS? Or is there a better way to do this? protected override void Initialise() { base.Initialise(); // PopulateList called...
