STV: SageMC 16x9 Version 6.x (latest dev build)

[ke6guj]

I'd guess you might have borked something. I just tried doing a IMDB save in SageMC and it saves the description fine. It even has the cast info below the description. SOmething I see the .my/.properties plugin I was using in the defaultUI doesn't seem to do.

Hmmm... What version of Sage/SageMC are you running? Did you install the new JAR file from the latest IMDB search? Unless I do that the IMDB search is completely broken.

Thanks... I went back to the original SageMC STV and all seems fine. Once I import twieder's stvi I loose the detailed info.

Anyone seen this strange anomoly?

Just a guess, but do you have any closed captioning turned on?

To change it, close sage, and open the sage.properties file. A few lines down, it will list the STV file to load. If it says SageMC_169.stv, change it to SageMC_169.xml. Save and start up sage again. That should do it. I would delete the .stv file so that you don't accidentally select it again. HTH

Aloha,

Thank you MeInMaui! That worked!

Did you install the latest imdb update from the plugin thread?

I have this issue resolved in the latest version of SageMC Enhancements. Let me know if you still have any trouble.

Is there a way to change the size of the font for the clock in the info OSD. I changed the clock font size, but it only affects the main clock. Also is there a way to not need to to press select after manually typing a channel. EX: just type 6. Not 6 select. THANX!

I have more than enough tuners, and even when there is possible way for a conflict padding set up in SageMC never shows up for my recordings.

This was even more evident this week when I had the idea to combine my The Daily Show and Colbert Report recordings. I set the padding for the end of t The Daily Show to be 35 minutes, which should extend through The Report. However, I'm still getting a simple 30 minute recording (should now be 65 minutes).

Is there a setting somewhere that I'm missing to turn on padding?

Thanks.

If you have 'remove padding for back to back favorites' enabled and you still have the Colbert Report set as a favorite, then what you observed is exactly what should happen. Remove either condition and you should get your desired padding.

I had already removed the Colbert Report from favorites. I'm not getting padding on any of my recordings. I never have (default padding is set to 2 minutes at start and end). It never really bugged me until now with this Daily Show/Colbert idea.

Thanks for the help. Any other ideas?

Sage 6.1.9.143
Java 1..6.0_01
SageMC 6.3.3b

When playing a DVD from a HD on an MVP the preview window is not resizing the video to fit. What you see is a "preview-window" sized section of the playing DVD. All settings set to "default".

Live TV and any recorded Sage TV are resized to fit in the window.

Been using Sage for about a week following the 15 day trial - I'm impressed!!!
MVP integration is very good, WAF has doubled since we started using the SageMC interface.

Still have some tinkering to do, however so far its working very well.

Regards

You're in the right forum, its just that nobody that has read the thread has an answer. It appears that real-life may have intruded on flachbar for a while, so you haven't been able to hear from the current SageMC author.

Have you tried to see if you get the same behavior using the default UI? That way you can see if it is a Sage issue, or a SageMC issue.

As ke6guj says try it with the default STV and see if it does the same thing for you. I've seen it before with the default STV but it was back with an earlier version of SageTV (4.1.3 maybe? or maybe is was with Matt's client from even earlier - don't remember). In any case I have not had that problem in a long time.

Same here, anyone working on fixing this or have a clue how to get it working?

I was wondering if dvd profiler 3.0 colllection xml is functional for importing into sagemc. Also, where do you point the dvd proifler directory, the one in program files, or the one in my documents?

[popechild]

Anybody else not getting the correct folder heirarchy showing in the latest Beta (6.2.4)?

I can't be positive that the beta changed this, but it's the only change I've made recently that I can think of. I used to be able to go into my imported videos folder and see all of the sub-folders in each of my specified imported folders. Now all of the movies in those folders, regardless of folder heirarchy, just show up in the "top level" in SageMC.

Anyone else seeing this?
