Thanks,

EP,

I narrowed this down. CBS->Criminal Minds hangs UPnP2Podcast.exe every time on my system. I checked for feed updates and it's running the latest.

Using UPnP2Podcast.exe v1.3 does not hang.

I hope that helps.

Is it normal to have CBS,NBC, Hulu listed twice? I have Hulu but I also have Hulu browse and I have NBC twice and CBS twice. Thanks guys.

Did you remove the original CustomOnlineVideoLinks files before installing any of the later versions?

No, you can change around the files in that folder at any time, you don't even have to stop/restart Sage. Just leave "online services" and then come back to it, and it will update to the latest files you have in the folder.

If you're confused by what to delete, you can delete all the custom feeds and then manually run (read: double-click) SageTV\UPnP2Podcast.exe and it'll automatically download them again.

Thank much for the help!! So I deleted all the files that said custom and ran the exe. Now all I have in my OnlineVideos folder is 2 files one is OnlineVideoLinks.properties and the other is OnlineVideoUIText.properties. Also can you Look at my attachment to see if that is normal to have podcast listed like that. Thanks much again.

I think that may be due to Sage some having the old categories cached in memory. Can you try restarting the Sage server to see if that helps?

Over at playonplugins.com, the HGTV plugin has been updated. I updated my previous HGTV files for the new plugin.

*Known Issue*
A few of the Shows now have Season Subcategories, but I haven't figured that out yet.

I did restart several times but no luck

EP, and everyone else involved -- i said this before but awesome awesome job on this... I LOVE IT!

question though regarding the integration. So i got my PS3 Netflix disc in the mail and i now have "HD" content from netflix available. Will Playon pick up the HD content and allow me to get it on my Sage Setup? Or, is the HD content limited to the "authorized" device with netflix?

I apologize if this topic has already been covered, or if this is not the appropriate place to ask this...

Thanks.

Threw this together for the Marvel plugin over at playonplugins.com. Feel free to make improvements if you like. Right now the 3 sets of Spider-Man videos, the X-Men, and Comic-Con videos work. Can't seem to get the FF or Spider Woman videos to show up. Thanks to EP (especially) and everyone else for all your great work on this.

Now if I could just get the Adultswim and Cartoon Network scripts working...

I am experiencing the same thing. I love this plugin. However, I am running WHS and only have 20GB for the C: partition. There is about 4 gigs of .flv movies sitting in the windows/temp directory. Is it safe to delete these?

Thanks,
Peter

EP,

Can you reproduce this problem? It happens using the default STV with no add ons. It's very reproducable on my system.

Thanks,

Tom

Does anyone know why on Netflix, my instant Queue only shows 4 shows versus the 237 I actually have in my instant queue. Was there a fix I need to do, or should I just be grateful that I can access Netflix at all?

Thanks!

[gplasky]

Well I have 9 showing in mine. Also keep in mind that there is a time limit for how long you can keep a Watch Now show in the queue and it still be playable. I've had some come back to say it has been over x days and the movie is no longer available to play.

Have you guys seen this?

Clicker.com

Does this give us anything new to add? Looks pretty slick.

It's on a pc client. I get the whole image, it's just smaller with green bars top and bottom. I have tried changing to different aspect ratios with no luck. Something on the server side, perhaps?
