    yes i know buddy.


    after you posted the fixes in the 3player file for the straight of the telly,to be used just on the vix image,i edited the fixed file so it could also be used on none vix images.


    i was stating that yesterdays fix after the edit worked,but then stopped working and that todays fixes didnt work.


    but


    it was my mistake as i didnt understand properly how the straight of the telly feature worked,and that after a short time(no idea how long)the programming is no longer available.
    but when i was told to try the very latest news,this worked,so it proved that your fixes also work too.


    so


    your files are fine,and all is working as it should be.


    i wish you had uploaded those a few days ago buddy as it took me a full day to source them off the net myself lol.also because they are mips32el i had to decompile the buggers so i could get them to run on mipsel as well.


    not to worry at least its all done now and Ten Bellow has just sent me a pm saying he's succeeded in creating working ipk files,so this plugin should soon be available to all on all images.
    this is how it should be rather than it just working on the vix image alone.


    these plugins were not theirs to begin with and the original itvplayer was created over on Satpimps by Subixonfire and we helped and tested to get it working.However Subix forgot to include the py file in the upload to other forums and this was instantly jumped upon at vix and decompiled.it was always intended to be open source and as soon as Subix realised his mistake he posted the source files on the github.


    but now vix have packed that plugin and the BBCiplayer plugin ect into just one plugin that only works on vix and claimed the plugin as their own.
    this is why we undertook the task to get this plugin working on all images for all users and not just vix users alone.im not saying that this was ever done to make the plugin only available to vix,but they have made no effort in getting it to work on other images.so we have done this instead for them.


    i hope all now enjoy it.

    pm sent with links to the existing ipk files that ive uploaded for you,but remember they do not work properly,but should contain all the needed files to install manually if you extract them using 7zip.


    good luck with creating a working ipk,but as i said we have so far failed in this.
    if for some reason your box complains about not having certain modules installed after you have installed the plugin,let me know and i will upload all the extra needed files in a rar file for you.


    if you succeed please feel free to upload the new ipk's here or anywhere else you may choose to do so for everyone to use.


    Ian.

    not quite as simple as that im afraid,i wish it were.


    there are many new files needed to get this to run on none vix images and many go into python,such as beautifulsoup,lmxl and dns resolvers.
    these files have many dependencies too and removing the host folder when its python itself is not an option.



    as i said though if you want this edited plugin to try to create an ipk for it i will upload it for you.


    it is ready for general release and proven to be working on all images weve tested so far,but its the ipk creation thats stopping the release,simply because we feel manuall installation of so many new files will be above the average users capabilities.


    the plugin files are all in py format so will work on both 2.6 and 2.7 and the plugin itself is quite simple to instal as you have already stated,you are all capable of doing this manually.
    its just the installation of all the extra files that concerns me,although they are all in there own independent folders and with a bit of common sense,you can easily send them to their correct folders in the image.but they do also all have to be chmoded too.


    Ian.

    forgot to mention


    once we have sorted out the ipks to install this edited version i will also upload it to this site.


    manual install works perfectly on all images,but because there are so many new files to install as well as the plugin itself,in order to devixify it,its probably a bit above the average users capabilties.


    im not good with ipks though and at the moment,if any of the needed files are already installed on an image i cannot get the ipk to overwrite the existing file so the install fails.
    the present ipk only works if an images has none of the needed new files installed upon it or any of its dependencies.


    if you would like i could always upload the files anyway and someone with more experience than i in creating ipk's could pack them in a manor that any existing files would then be overwritten and so the install could then continue.


    this project has been undertaken by myself and others over in the VIP++ section on satpimps, we are going to release it to everyone,but not until the ipks are sorted out.


    Ian.


    EDIT: just read your post after id finished typing. so if you are mainly end users you may not want this version as it will have to be edited and updated as and when vix update theirs on the github.it wont of course stop working,but it also wont remain the very latest version.


    up to you,let me know.

    ok you are quite correct


    the latest news bulletin from the straight off the telly section works perfectly.


    so,its down to me not fully understanding what this section is and how long the programming in this section remains live.


    can you answer this ?


    do you know the retention of the streams in this section ?


    Ian.

    when the straight off the telly is selected a box pops up stating that there has been a problem in retrieving the stream


    i think the exact words go something like EXCEPTION PROBLEM RERIEVING STREAM:CHECK DEBUG LOGS


    i have to add though that i have vastly edited the files to get this plugin to run on none vix images including BH 2.01


    but this error is on a box running Blackpole python 2.6
    and because 2.6 doesnt support functions ive had to change line 391 to


    lastservice = self.session.nav.getCurrentlyPlayingServiceReference()


    this is to get the plugin to run on python 2.6 without gsods when a stream is selected.


    but the same error also occurs when its tried on an openpli 2.7 image without this line being edited,which also worked perfectly yesterday


    your previous fix yesterday worked perfectly using this line,until late last night when it stopped working.
