Sorting and Display Issues for Recordings

I have a wall flow setup for recordings with view options of group by Show and sort by Original Air Date, descending. I'm not totally sure how it is sorting but it is not correct (verified by comparing the same sorting in the default recordings list).

I have Episode Simple List turned on and when I go into the episode list for shows often there will be multiple columns, the second one obscured by the info display and not navigable. This happens with Wrap List both turned off and on and is somewhat random (sometimes displays properly in one column).

I can post screenshots if it will help. Thanks.

Do you have the OAD sort on the first level of Show or on the second level? Which level is have the sort issue.

I will try to reproduce to see if I can understand what is going on but a screen shot would help.

First level grouping and sorting. The episode lists seem to be sorting OK.

Which View did you use for this Flow? TV Shows?

Ideally, if you could post the results of the View Configuration Summary (top option on the View Options) that would help to know all the settings for the view for me. It is displayed on the screen but it is also dumped to the gemstone.log file found in the Logs folder.

Sample
Code:
LoadView: View Created as follows....
DescribeView: View 'TV Shows(custom)'
DescribeView:  - Name (name) = 'gemstone.source.allTV.custom'
DescribeView:  - Label (label) = 'TV Shows(custom)'
DescribeView:  - Description (description) = 'NotSet'
DescribeView:  - Visible (visible) = 'false'
DescribeView:  - Flatten (flat) = 'true'
DescribeView:  - Children Only (children-only) = 'false'
DescribeView:  - Prune Single Item Folders (prune-single-item-folders) = 'NotSet'
DescribeView:  - Path to the Root Folder (root) = 'NotSet'
DescribeView:  - Position the view at the Bookmark location (bookmark) = 'NotSet'
DescribeView:  ViewSource 'TV Shows'
DescribeView:   - Name (name) = 'gemstone.source.allTV'
DescribeView:   - Label (label) = 'TV Shows'
DescribeView:   - Description (description) = 'All TV Shows, Grouped by Show, sorted by title,then grouped by Episode'
DescribeView:   - Visible (visible) = 'true'
DescribeView:   - Flatten (flat) = 'true'
DescribeView:   - Children Only (children-only) = 'false'
DescribeView:   - Prune Single Item Folders (prune-single-item-folders) = 'NotSet'
DescribeView:   - Path to the Root Folder (root) = 'NotSet'
DescribeView:   - Position the view at the Bookmark location (bookmark) = 'NotSet'
DescribeView:  ViewPresentation Level '1'
DescribeView:   Grouper 'Show' (show)
DescribeView:    - Empty Group Name (empty-foldername) = 'NotSet'
DescribeView:    - Promote single item groups (prune-single-item-groups) = 'NotSet'
DescribeView:   Sorter 'Original Air Date' (originalairdate)
DescribeView:    - Sort Order (sort-order) = 'asc'
DescribeView:    - Folders First (folders-first) = 'true'
You need Gemstone logging set to DEBUG. On the Main Menu press options and then select Utility Functions, Log Options and set logging to DEBUG. Then select the Flow again and grab the DescribeView lines from the log.

Let me see if you can just change some settings but likely a code change would be needed to fully fix it.

The Episode Simplified works only the first time...odd no one has raised that yet but it seems consistently broken on and subsequent use after the first one.... I need to fix that ;o)

A work-around.....

Create a second Flow that uses the type Sage Flow. The view can really be anything but making it Recorded TV or TV may be less confusing later.

Go into the Wall Flow you created and in the Options select Level Overrides. In there select your Sage Flow you created previously.

What this does is when you select an item from the first Flow level in the Wall Flow it then launches the second level with the Sage Flow and uses the selected item from the Wall Flow view to determine what is displayed on the second level. The second Flow....in this case Sage Flow, can have completely custom and independent settings for the Info Options etc. Very Flexible but confusing to many I am sure that's why the Episode Simple List was created....but if it's broken then this work-around will provide the same outcome.

I tested it and it works consistently. Let me know if you have questions in setting it up.

Thanks. I actually tried this initially, but there seems to be a bug where when I go left out of the Sage Flow episode list, it seems to be a blank screen where none of the thumbs in the Wall Flow are visible. They actually appear to be displayed off screen, since if I hit Up several times the bottom some of them appear at the top of the screen.

Odd....I cannot recreate that issue. Perhaps more info needed or upload the logs so I can see if there is an error I can use to trace it.

I found the Episode Simple List issue and have it fixed in Gemstone2. I don't plan on releasing Gemstone2 any time soon but I have attached the Gemstone.xml file if you want to try out the fix.

Just replace the existing Gemstone.xml file located in the SageTV\STVs\SageTV7 folder while SageTV is not running or while it is running with a reload of the STV (revert in the detailed setup and then select Gemstone again as the STV)....either approach would work.

Let me know how it goes.

Grab the zip here....

Looks good. Thanks.

Any idea about the group sorting issue or do you need a log for that?

I have been trying to ignore that one

It's a tough one to track down as the OAD for each group needs to be based on the latest OAD per group and then the latest for all the groups. As my test area is obviously not the same as what you have then I cannot tell why yours does not seem to match the other results from the built in view.

The issue could just be the built in view doesn't ONLY use OAD or the OAD sort on the Phoenix based view is broken when done on a Show Group.

Not sure the logs are going to tell me anything as they do not list out all the shows and there OAD.

You could try getting rid of the 1st level group and just sort the FULL recordings list by OAD and see if that is working. That would tell us if the OAD function is working for you.

You could also try the Recent sort and see if that gives you what you are looking for.

I will try out a few things on my end as well.

I'm not sure what is going on with OAD, but "Recent Activity" seems to give me exactly what I want. Thanks.

One other minor issue I've noticed is that when returning to a flow after exiting a video, the title and fanart of the completed video is displayed, however the metadata text information is from the first title in the flow. Everything corrects itself as soon as you move to the next title in the flow. Hopefully that make sense...

Any specific Flow?

Sage Flow. And the misbehavior is consistent with various views in Sage Flow.

I've long noticed this in the Cover flow that I use for movies. Backing into the flow shows the fanart for the first item (even though the actual focused item is correct - hitting play will play the correct item, not what is shows, so it's just a presentation issue. I have not looked into it - I need to get a proper Gemstone dev environment set up again.
