Thanks for letting me know (again) - like a greedy kid I keep on asking for more

It sounded like Tim was saying that Dirk was possibly working on making it compatible with SageMC, on the Webisode thread.

Anyone else seeing this?

btl.

I don't use a client, but just one htpc, but I'm also having this problem.

hey..

just updated a bunch of software...java, sage 6.2, HDHR remapping/nightmare, and sage MC. I had been getting a weird font corruption at the end of HD playback occasionally...wasn't able to read the menus in sage mc.

The default STV has really improved...

Where are youtube and google video in sage mc?

My guide has all current shows kind of highlighted, and future airings are kind of greyed out now. How do I reset all my guide settings?

Thanks a bunch...

My video library has 2 folders, but regularly it automatically add's the root of the C:drive (resulting in several additonal folders as "windows" etc to appear).
I each time remove this C:folder, but it just keeps coming back.

Known issue with known solution (I hope)?

What menu system are you using? (I assume the standard, and not dynamic menu's, otherwise you would probably already know where to see these.)

In order for them to show up in the standard menu system, you need to go into SageMC Options, and find the Custom Menu items (SageMC Options>>Menu), and set the internal menu to point to each of these (assume you use Custom1 and Custom2), and rename the Custom1/2 menus to what you want them to say in the main menu. Then, after getting that setup, return to the main menu, hit your options button, and enable Custom1 and Custom2, then hit the refresh button, and hit your options button again, and there you are.

Is anyone else having issues with the miniguide? Pressing up cycles thru only 5 channels, and pressing down does the same with 5 different channels. Where are all the rest of my channels?

Since I can't seem to solve my problem with SlimServer, can anyone email (or post) SageMC 6.3.3c?

Thanks...got google and youtube up and running. Works great.

What about:

My guide has all current shows kind of highlighted, and future airings are kind of greyed out now. How do I reset all my guide settings?

I remember some time back changing guide colors/txt highlights from some menu. Is there a way to put it back to default. I can't see what's on after the current show...it's white txt on grey background.

Settings > SageMC > Main > Screen Specific Options > EPG

From there you should be able to set the text colors as well as toggle between the old and new methods of setting the guide background colors. If you set the new method to false, then it should revert to the way it used to behave. HTH

Aloha,

Hi Karl,

this sounds strange, it's working fine for me, and I haven't heard any other reports about this...

Hi Jan,

the only thing I can think of: check if you have "Auto Add Offline Path" enabled in the SageMC options, and if you have the Offline path set to C:

Just a little patience...

Yes, you can specify a different "Movie" category in the SageMC options. I just tried it and changed it to something different, and it seems to work fine.

Do you have "Show Premieres" enabled in the SageMC options ?
The first button on the schedules screen cycles through "All", "Conflicts", and "Premieres"

Nope sorry, this is not included in SageMC.

This happens everytime the show description is 5 lines or more...
Can i fix this myself, or is it a visual bug ?

I'll take a look at that...

But there's no RSS ticker running at the bottom, and when I select the RSS menu item I've created (to nielm's rss feed thingy), I get a "failed to load" java classes error.

I've tried switching to dynamic menus a few times throughout my SageMC use, but whenever I go back to my main menu screen I get an error and have to switch back to the regular menu.

Not sure what I've done wrong in either case.

Do you get any errors in the log when you enable debug logging ?

1. Sage Client is sleeping (full screen, little green sage logo bouncing around)
2. Press "Menu" button, the Home screen of SageMC shows up, "My TV" highlighted.
3. Press "OK" - My TV menu is opened up, "Live TV" highlighted
4. Press "OK" - Media is started up, usually on the last channel I was on.

More often than not at this point I can't use the up and down arrows to browse the mini-guide. Nothing happens.

btl.

Seems to be a real issue if several people are seeing this, but I tried this over and over and so far I'm not able to reproduce it...

I'm trying to setup @email for the first time, and am having issues. Can someone post their mailaccounts.xml file without a password, so I can see what your settings are? I'm trying to setup gmail, and am getting the following log error. I have IMAP setup in gmail, and am using the imaps host setting.
