[E² Plugin] SimplySports

Mandatory registration in the plugin is not a good idea at all. 

Its not registration like entering email, just enter a nickname

SimplySport v4.8 Update - Enter the AI Era & the Ultimate Screen Update!

Hey everyone! A massive update to SimplySport is rolling out today (v4.8), and it brings one of our most highly anticipated leaps forward: Artificial Intelligence and an absolute overhaul of the main broadcasting user interface.

Here is everything packed into this massive release!

The New Main Screen Experience

I have completely ripped out and polished the main scoreboard screen to give it an elite, premium broadcaster aesthetic.

- Live Possession Bars: Look right underneath the team names for live matches! You will now instantly see a beautifully colored, real-time possession bar moving in real-time. Know instantly who is dominating the pitch without changing channels.

- Dynamic Score Tracking: The interface smartly tracks high-drama and high-scoring games right inside the UI layout.

- Voting counts: The scheduled matches now shows users votes as:

Home 2 VTS 1 AWAY to give you the fans sentiment about the match.

Live AI Sporting Commentary

Say goodbye to generic static notifications! SimplySport is now powered by Generative AI

If you enable AI Mode, a tiny non-intrusive "toast" notification will slip onto the bottom of your screen during games. As live events unfold, the AI writes organic, contextual commentary for you:

- Match Flow Awareness: The AI knows if a goal is an equalizer, a massive late comeback, or just pouring salt on a wound.

- Real-time Global News: The AI will seamlessly pull real-world sports headlines from the internet and weave them into notifications!

- Strict Persona: It speaks like a real human broadcaster, no robotic AI clichés!

### 🛑 IMPORTANT: Mandatory Community Registration

To help drive our gamification and leaderboard features into the future, **we are now tracking active installations.

When you launch v4.8 for the exact first time after updating, registration is required.

The system will bring up the Enigma2 Virtual Keyboard. You MUST enter a display name (Voter Name) to continue!

*If you press EXIT or leave it blank, you will be bounced back to the Enigma2 menu and will not be able to use the plugin.* Don't worry — your identity is locked anonymously to your device ID, so feel free to pick any fun display name you want!

How to Supercharge SimplySport with Groq AI

To get the absolute fastest, most intelligent AI commentary (driven by the famous Llama 3 engine), I highly recommend using Groq as your AI provider!

Here is exactly how to set it up for free:

1. On your phone or computer, go to exactly: [console.groq.com/keys](https://console.groq.com/keys)

2. Log in (you can use Google or create a free account).

3. Click on the "Create API Key" button. Give it a name like "SimplySport".

4. Copy the long text string it gives you. Keep it safe!

5. On your Enigma2 box, open SimplySport and press `MENU` on your remote to open the Settings.

6. Scroll down to the AI Settings and configure these exact fields:

- AI Mode: Set to `ON`

- AI Provider: Switch this to `Groq (Llama 3)`

- AI API Key: Click this, and carefully enter the API Key you copied from the website (Pro Tip: Use the Enigma2 Web Interface (OpenWebif) Remote if typing the long key on your TV is too annoying!) Or follow the instructions in the images below.

- AI Language: Choose your native language. The AI will provide commentary seamlessly in whatever language you pick!

Enjoy the game, and let us know what you think of the new AI commentator!

Quote from giorbak

Since SimplySports now uses AI, could the "Key Moments" and "Match News" windows also be translated into the language of our choice?

Its a good idea, but I'm afraid it would consume all the tokens as this part is data rich

Quick update V4.9

Just bug fix to make the main UI fast.

SimplySports: V5.0 Additions & Enhancements

1. Dialect-Aware AI Commentary

I took the AI commentary to the next level by making it hyper-localized.

• Expanded Languages: Added Greek, Croatian, Serbian, and Bosnian.
• Native Arabic Dialects: Added عربي (مصري), عربي (عراقي), عربي (خليجي), دارجة (مغربية), and عربي (شامي) to the language menu, written nicely in their native script.
• Smart Prompt Routing: Built an underlying engine that automatically detects your selected dialect and instructs the AI to adopt that specific regional tone and vocabulary (e.g., instructing the LLM to speak with a "casual Egyptian football fan tone" instead of just standard Arabic).

2. AIToast UI Positioning & UX

Polished the visual presentation and usability of the AI commentator notifications.

• Less Intrusive: The AI overlay can now be dismissed instantly by pressing almost any standard remote button (Up/Down/Left/Right, OK, Cancel, Red, Green, Yellow, Blue), so it never gets in your way.
• Better Typography: Increased the AI Toast font size (from 26 up to 30) so it is significantly easier to read from the couch.
• Screen Placement: Lowered the AI window by a total of 25 pixels (shifted the Y-axis from 927 down to 952) and slightly padded the height so it anchors better to the bottom of the screen.

3. Critical Generator Stability Fix (The GeneratorExit Bug)

• Under-the-Hood Fix: Resolved a critical system issue where the plugin was improperly suppressing Enigma2's termination signals. By upgrading bare except: catch-alls to except Exception: inside the match processing loops, the plugin now safely respects GeneratorExit events.
• Result: This permanently clears the RuntimeError: generator ignored GeneratorExit errors that were silently flooding the logs, improving overall memory safety and system stability when closing the plugin or rebuilding UI lists.

I left some issues, so you can see what to do.
