Please provide any additional information below.
I have a master backend server(no frontend on this) that multiple frontends
connect to.  I do have the settings correct for mythtv and mysql(obviously,
or I wouldn't even be able to select a show to watch)
Under paths, I've tried using my backend recording directories, but get an
error they don't exist--assuming this is for the local machine only.  I do
have a mythtv-frontend and slave backend on this machine.  I don't run the
frontend while using XBMC.  Also got this same error some time ago on a
windows XP machine--was hoping to be able to build a windows based myth
frontend.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. open the EPG
2. go the the specific show
3. press i for information.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When I'm in the EPG I should be able to see the show description.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1105

Please provide any additional information below.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. attempt to run the mythbox script

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

I'm on Arch Linux, i installed "pacman -S mysql-python" (extra/mysql-python
1.2.3b2-1)

Linux PCname 2.6.30-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Jul 31 18:10:38 UTC 2009 i686
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux

I've read up on similar errors but they were using 64bit OS's, I have an
AMD64 but i'm NOT on 64bit Arch Linux.



Please provide any additional information below.

I've gotten this to work on MythBuntu but not ArchLinux, I'm a bit of a
noob but I tried my hardest to give you as much info as possible.

please note that the FAQ in the tar.gz file needs updating, the XBMC log
file in Linux was located in /home/<user>/.xbmc/temb/xbmc.log only after
turning on the feature.

[deleted issue]

mythbox.log is never created on windows because of this key error.

Hello,

Here you are a Spanish translation of the scipts.

You are doing a very nice work :)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.start watching a TV channel. 
2. Press i for information on the show.
3. there is no time frame for the show (show is from 21:30-22:00).

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
To see the time frame from the beginning of the show to the end and the
line should be filled from the beginning to the specific current time.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
latest svn 1105.

Please provide any additional information below.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?


Please provide any additional information below.

This is not a bug really, but a feature request, you could say.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Watch LiveTV
2. Go to the Guide
3. If you now try to start a new channel, it doesn't work. You have to
explicitly STOP playback (STOP button) before playing a new channel.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I would like MythBox to automatically STOP the playback of the old channel,
and starting the new.

a thought: it would be really cool if it checked to see if there was an
idle tuner, and if so, start buffering the new channel WHILE playing the
old. And when the buffering was complete, stop the old and show the new. It
would just be cool, havn't thought of it much. However you would
temporarily lock up another tuner which is a small drawback.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

658 on Linux

Please provide any additional information below.

If any more information is needed, I'll provide it.

ffmpeg.exe executable is not found since XBMC exposed PATH is not the
Windows PATH.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Play live TV channel
2. Shows buffering then live TV starts

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected:  continuous playback of that live tv channel until instructed to
stop.

Actual:  live TV plays for a few seconds and then stops.  repeated attempts
do the same thing each time.  hit "I" key to bring up info, see that seek
bar goes to then end and playback stops.

If you instead pause playback as soon as it starts for just a few seconds,
you can then allow playback to continue with no problems.  I assume from
seeing the numbers tick that you're refreshing periodically to get the new
file length.  I think either increasing the buffer time or refreshing more
often would take care of the issue.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Mythbox Beta 3 SVN1062
Mythbackend TRUNK 0.22 - SVN 20490

Please provide any additional information below.
Using HDHOMERUN as capture device.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. start mythbox svn 1053 and then select tv guide
2. click on a program and change the rcord option to record once
3. Click save

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Unsure what expected output should be as i have never had this working but 
the gui comes up with a message along the lines of "catchall error onclick 
expected int"

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Using ubuntu 9.04 with xbmc 9.04 alpa and latest version 10532 beta

Please provide any additional information below.

I've attached a copy of my mythbox.log which does seem to contain some 
information related to the error.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. From MythBox select Watch TV
2. From the channel listing select a show

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expect Live TV to appear. Instead, I see buffering then a blank green
screen. If I attempt to exit, I'm allowed back to the previous screen but
not any futher; Have to kill xbmc processes from there.

Please provide any additional information below.

I'm not sure exactly how to reproduce this problem; it simply seems that 
occasionally when I play a show from the list of recordings, it will crash.  It 
doesn't 
happen all the time, and it seems to happen more often if the computer has been 
idle on the channel recordings list for a while, but that could just be bad 
luck.  I've attached the log file generated by mythbox.

This is on a computer running Ubuntu 8.10 with XBMC from XBMC's official 
Intrepid repository.  I also have the latest release of MythBox.

Also, XBMC dumped a core file when it crashed.  Here's the top of the stack

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Went through installing this on my Mythbuntu 9.04 install. (XBMC runs great)
2. Wget the Mythbox (newest edition), unzip it to my .xbmc/scripts dirctory
3. Run it from XBMC scripts menu.  Mythbox only shows a quarter of the
screen when it is loaded up.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Should show what your screenshoot show, but I only see a quarter of the
screen. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Mythbox = Beta 3 (SVN 1062) Released - OS = Mythbuntu 9.04 

Please provide any additional information below.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Select Mythbox script
2. Select Live Channel
3. Error is thrown

When I select a channel it seams to go through all the steps (tuning,
buffering etc) then shows

Error: CATCHALL

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start a LiveTV session on any channel
2. While buffering, press Cancel
3. Instead of cancelling, it finished buffering and then starts playing TV.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect it to cancel the buffering, and not play.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

658 on Linux

Please provide any additional information below.

If any more information is required, I'll add it.

XBMC 8.10 Atlantis on Windows + MythBox SVN 658  fails with module 'msvcrt'
not found.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Choose to watch TV
2. Choose one of the channels
3. Whatever channel is selected in GUI, one specific channel is actually
started every time.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Well, the channel you choose should start.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
mythbox-svn-1055.tar.gz
This problem started a few versions ago though, I've just been too lazy to
report it. I really though this was a small mistake that would sort itself.

Please provide any additional information below.
Logs attached. This log is from a fresh install (of both xbmc and mythbox).
I select settings, start two recordings (works), then select the third
channel from the list to play, and the second is chosen.

I mad the german translation of strings.xml

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Use Mediastream skin
2. Start watching a recording
3. Pop out to the guide

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected:  The current playback should take place of the thumbnail for the
currently selected recording

Actual:  The current playback is in the place of the thumbnail.  There is
also an additional smaller playback window mirrored with the correct one in
the upper left.

Works fine when using PM3-HD skin

I used it on the Xbox in the past and loved it. It's great to see this on
linux!


ALPHA 4 doesn't work AFAIK wth Mediastream, but it's a great develpment
nonetheless!

Thanks!

Since MythTV is designed for handling and playing back its recorded data,
the MythTV internal player is currently better suited than the XBMC
dvdplayer for playing back MythTV data, particularly in the case of HD
content. 

As the MythTV player can be launched independently of the MythTV frontend,
I would like to see MythBox capable of launching the MythTV player (rather
than remaining within XBMC) once the user selects a channel or recording to
watch.

1. Extracted "mythbox-svn-1098.tar.gz" to C:\Documents and
Settings\<userid>\Application Data\XBMC\scripts, where <userid> is my login id.
2. Started XBMC and clicked on MythBox under the scripts list.

I get an error message (see screenshot please) and no MythBox settings
screen appears.

I am running XBMC 9.04 on Win32.

ffmpeg 0.5 output format has changed so the framerate is no longer parsed
correctly by pyxcoder. fix to support following video stream output:

Stream #0.0[0x1011]: Video: h264, yuv420p, 1280x720 [PAR 1:1 DAR 16:9],
59.94 tbr, 90k tbn, 119.88 tbc

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install Mythbox on Windows XP Professional SP2
2. Install mythbox-svn-865.tar.gz into C:\Program Files\XBMC\scripts
3. Go to Scripts and run the mythbox script

Got an error saying "No module named msvcrt" - see attached screenshot.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.   Go to Watch Recordings
2.   Select a title
3.   Press the right mouse button to return to the previous menu. An error
message is returned (see attached)
4.   It is not not possible to return to the previous menu. Anywhere in the
screen, the error message is returned. (Need to go and get my keyboard and
press the ESC button to back out. )

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
XBMC 8.10 bf1:Atlantis (compiled 18 Dec 2008)
MythBox SVN 851
OSX 10.5.2

This problem occurs on a OSX and Windows build of XBMC. 

Please provide any additional information below.

I have not been able to enable my logging. Please tell me what I need to
set in the .ini file. I will very happily then repeat the testing. 

What steps will reproduce the problem?
* Start XBMC
* Select MythBox
* Select "Watch TV"



What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
* Clear audio, instead the audio is broken.  

MythTV works and XBMC inbuilt myth:// protocol works.  Only seem to be
experiencing this problem when using MythBox.

When watching live I am experiencing broken audio seems in sync but hard to
tell as I only really hear very short, the picture seems okay.  If I pause
the Live TV stream the sound seems to be okay for a while.  I have tired
increasing the XBMC cache settings but have not noticed any change. 


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

I am using MythBox 3/7/2009 Beta 2.  I am running on a minimal install
Ubuntu 8.10, Xbmc (latest from svn) and default MythTV (from Ubuntu repos).  



Please provide any additional information below.

MythBox setting are correct (test setup works).  I can connect to the
mythbackend, see program guide, see channels, watch TV etc.  But I did have
to install ffmepg to enable MythBox to work.  

XBMC, MythTV (backend and frontend) etc all running locally within the same
environment.

I use MythTV as the reference platform but long for better XBMC integeration. 

MythTV seems fine.  The frontend is working, live TV, recording etc.   

XBMC's inbuilt myth:// protocol works picture a not quite as good as MythTV
but provides limited functionality. 


Any ideas where I mights start looking to identify the problem.  Is this a
ffmpeg issue and I should provide an option to ffmpeg.  Since this is a
minimal install of Ubuntu 8.10 am I likley to be missing some software?

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. View recordings 
2. Select a Program
3. Crash to desktop

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
To view the Program. instead it crashes to desktop

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1260 , mythbuntu 9.01 with xbmc latest SVN

Please provide any additional information below.
Works the first few times but if you exit and come back a couple hours 
later it will crash to desktop.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Go to http://code.google.com/p/mythbox/source/checkout
2. Follow instructions

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expected to see a populated tree.  I saw an empty directory.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Trying to use the latest from svn, but can't get it.

Please provide any additional information below.
Attempting to browse the source
(http://code.google.com/p/mythbox/source/browse/) also shows no source in
the repository.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install mythbox script in Windows XP SP3 according to the readme
instructions.
2. Insert mythtv backend ip address and mythconverg password.
3. Select 'test settings' in mythbox setup.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected output is that test was successful and mythbox starts to work.
Actual output is 'Recording directory /var/lib/mythtv/recordings does not
exist'

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Alpha release of mythbox(SVN 682). Windows XP SP3. XBMC for windows 9.04.1.

Please provide any additional information below.
Mythbox working fine on my combined backend/ frontend linux box (where the
recordings folder resides) using the same settings as input onto the
windows version of the script.

I have a symlink from /var/lib/mythtv/recordings to another location (on
another partition of the same linux box) where the actual recordings are
stored. Inputting this location as the recordings path returns the same
error message.

Something to do with a non-console windows application not having a stdin
file descriptor to pass on to the child process. May have to put in a hack
for a workaround.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Watch live TV 
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Video shouldn't judder

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
SVN1260 on XBMC Live (Linux Jaunty)

Please provide any additional information below.
The live channel feed judders every 2-3seconds (hardly noticeable) this 
problem isn't a backend issue as when I use the XBMC native client Live TV 
plays without any issues

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. On os x choose a live channel and play it.
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I want it to continue playing live tv but it just plays the buffer and goes 
back to the channels list.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
865

Please provide any additional information below.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Using plex 0.7.5-bf77101, mythbox-svn-682
2. Install (tar xvfz) into ~/Library/Application\ Support/Plex/scripts/
3. restart plex, go to scripts menu, choose mythbox

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Mythbox should run - instead Running appears briefly and then this appears
on console:
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback

No ~/mythbox.log (err, whichever is supposed to appear) appears.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

OSX 10.5.6, developer kit installed.

Please provide any additional information below.

Running python on the command line shows 2.5, and interactively an 'import
site' does not complain.  I note that Plex has libpython2.4.dylib - I don't
know if this is related.

I realize this is probably a Plex issue.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Keep default buffer size of 1024 
2. Immediate stuttering on LiveTV
3. Raise to 4096
4. Stuttering after a while.
5. Max is OK

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Put a bigger buffer size in the settings

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
mythbox-svn-1055.tar.gz, but this has been a problem since the start.

Please provide any additional information below.
Have a local myth-backend. LiveTV is in the end of the attached log.

Would be a nice feature to burn inside xbmc allready 
transcoded files to dvd.

I for one would like to completly replace mythfrontend with 
xbmc. 

I can't start the script because of this error:

18:27:24 T:1138977104 M:1690177536   ERROR: Unable to load 
/home/htpc/.xbmc/scripts/MythBox/resources/lib/MySQLdb/linux64/_mysql.so, 
reason: 
libmysqlclient_r.so.16: cannot open shared object file: No such file or 
directory

I'm using the "stable" mysql 5.0 branch which provides me 
libmysqlclient_r.so.15 (i saw that .16 
comes with mysql 5.1), is it possible to have a build compatible with mysql 5.0?

Hi,

I have setup the MythBox script as described in the readme. But I am not
getting the settings screen from point 5 of the instructions.

Whole setup:

Hardware: Intel DP43TF, Intel Q6600, 8GB DDR2-800, Asus 8400GT 512mb
Software: Debian Squeeze, X.Org 1.4.2 (.deb), compiled XBMC r21138, MythBox
r1105

Problem: Navigating to script/mythbox bombs out immediately with a script
error. "Python script failed: special://home/scripts/MythBox/default.py"

Attached is screenshot of UI as of above error. xbmc.log having only
launched, attampted to run MythBox, and exited.

I have recompiled most days since XBMC r20801 (1st Jun 2009). I compile
with a single configure option, "--disable-pulse".

When leaving MythBox to return to the MythTV main menu, I am unable to 
reconnect to the MySQL database if I try to reopen MythBox.

I am given the error message "Connection to MythTV failed (111: Could not 
connect)"

Restarting XBMC allows me to reconnect, until I leave MythBox again.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Have Mythtv backend set to auto shutdown 
2. Run MythBox
3. Watch a recording

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Mythtv backend should not shutdown while MythBox client is connected. It
seems that MythBox is not registering itself as a client to MythTV backend.
On my server, after 5 minutes of no activity, MythTV shuts down the server.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
xbmc 9.04-rc1svn19929-jaunty1 from ppa.launchpad.net
MythBox svn 1062.
MythTV 0.21

>I thought it would be intuitive to separate paths with the platform
specific path separator

I thought I had tried that, so I double checked and still have a problem.
When I enter multiple paths separated by a colon, I get an error dialog
that says:
Recording directory 'mypath' does not exist.

The 'mypath' path is always the second directory in the list, so if I enter:
/mnt/mythtv/live:/mnt/mythtv/rec
I get:
Recording directory '/mnt/mythtv/rec' does not exist.
If I enter:
/mnt/mythtv/rec:/mnt/mythtv/live
I get:
Recording directory '/mnt/mythtv/live' does not exist.

If I enter three paths separated by colons, I still get an error referring
to the second path. All paths do actually exist and work fine if they are
the only path entered.

BTW: I'm running Kubuntu 8.04

Let me know if I can provide more info on this. Thanks again.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Have more than one tuner using the same guide data.
2.Look at the TV Guide and I see guide data for only one tuner with the rest of 
them saying no 
data. 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Would like to see the guide data used for all tuners if all tuners are using 
the same data.
