Support for XBMC2 plugin (formerly XBMCRepeat)

[jonib]

I'm using the 0.6.10 above and got this error:

Have you tried the 0.6.9 version? do you get the same errors?
The first line in your log is "XBMC2.System.OnQuit" did these errors happen after closing XBMC?

Hope it helps.

Thanks for reporting.

I had been using it, but not with json. I'll go back and try it later.

The first line in your log is "XBMC2.System.OnQuit" did these errors happen after closing XBMC?

Yes, immediately.

No errors today, but it seems to disable json on quitting and I need to manually disable, then enable json before it'll work again. I use a Vera plugin for my lights http://forum.micasaverde.com/index.php/ ... 697.0.html, can json talk to both?

I also only get a XBMC2.System.OnStart trigger if XBMC is running when EG starts.

Cheers.

Thanks, it would help me concentrate on the right part of the code.

Yes, immediately.

Hopefully I can figure out whats causing it, have no idea at the moment.

Sounds like what eman457 reported before, unfortunately I haven't fixed it yet. I'll try to make a new test version with the fix this weekend.

There is a "Search" button in the XBMC2 plugins config dialog, does it work for you blaher? if it works it's a new problem, if it don't it's probably the same as for eman457.

With .9, Search pressed once:

There isn't any other option though, just 127.0.0.1:80; I use 8080.

With .10:

When I put in the "ssdp.log" code I assumed there would be a "Plugins\XBMC2" dir. Great that you tested with the previous version also.

There isn't any other option though, just 127.0.0.1:80; I use 8080.

OK, seems your XBMC don't put in the port number in the ssdp network message. I'll try to make a new test version that don't need the port number today.

@blaher
Could you test the attached test version, it should at least detect when you start XBMC. Report any other problems you still have (or don't have) please.

jonib

[blaher]

Unfortunately it doesn't detect XBMC starting, unless I open XBMC, then start EG. Once XBMC shuts, I need to reload EG again for it to detect events.

Search no longer gives the error, just two messages:
12:02:44 XBMC2: Search finished, results in address dropbox.
12:02:44 Task.Created.dwm
12:02:44 Task.NewWindow.dwm
12:02:44 Task.Deactivated.EventGhost
12:02:44 Task.Activated.dwm
12:02:49 XBMC2: Search finished, results in address dropbox.

Below is what it detects:

Just got an idea, do you have any of the UPnP settings activated in XBMC? As the XBMC2 plugin uses SSDP (part of UPnP) to detect when XBMC starts.

Yeah, I removed the crashing code, but I don't understand why your getting the "Search finished" message twice.

UPnP is enabled on my router, but unchecked in XBMC. I also disabled the Vera plugin, (which does detect XBMC starting), just in case it was interfering.

[jonib]

Aha, you need at least one of the UPnP options in XBMC enabled, or the XBMC2 plugin won't be able to detect XBMC starting.

I also disabled the Vera plugin, (which does detect XBMC starting).

Interesting, do you know how the Vera plugin detects XBMC? As I would like to support all possible ways.

I see, which option do you recommend?

No, sorry, it's beyond my ken, but attached are files it uses. Looking through it seems like a ping command might be used, but that's just a guess.

[jonib]

"Allow control of XBMC via UPnP" in XBMC config\Services\UPnP seems to be the one, if your not using the other features.

Thanks, I'll see if there is anything useful.

Sweet, that works perfectly now, even with the Vera plugin running concurrently.

Edit: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=1562&start=795#p27693 I managed to fix the error in this post by specifying my IP, rather than using 127.0.0.1. I was remoting into the machine with teamviewer and got the error on quitting with .11, but it seems to be good now.

Edit again: D'oh, just remoted in and got the same error on quitting.

I have a added a few categories of movies in the main menu as playlist.
For eg:- Hollywood Movies, French Movies, Asian Movies, German Movies

How can i link these playlist directly?
I am using XBMC v12.2 Frodo on Windows 7.

Don't have time right now but try the command from this post, you will need to use a test version with Frodo support.
