Excume me for my doublepost, I had already posted in de bugreports, bus discovered this thread later
( Webinterface - Edit Timer - Recording subpath disappears )

In the webinterface of Enigma 2 I experience the following problem:
When I edit a timer which uses a subpath to record to, the subpath disappears and points to the default recordingpath.

Example:
The timer points to: /media/hdd/movie/Stargate (I checked on the TV).
When I click EDIT on the webinterface, it points to /media/hdd/movie (the default recordingpath).

Is there a solution for this problem?

I experienced the same problem.

Hi Gutemine,

Thank you for your explanation and files.

I've installed Eclipse + Pydev on my PC for learning Python.
Eclipse looks good with syntax highlighting etc.

Have fun creating a Version 3.0, and I'm looking forward to test it !

thanx. I'll do my best for it, but don't know when I've enough time cause I've to learn Python first.
Usually I program in VB.Net 2005 on my WindowsXP-box.
When it's ready, you're the first to know! =)

regards,
BW

Well, a Class model would be fine, but I don't think you will find one - even in DMM office building - correct me if I'm wrong

Probably not.

But the Pythons normallyhave relatively speaking names so a simple grep class *.py gives you a quick answer of what could be relevant and then it is not difficulet ot guess from the names which one would be usefull to import/use in your code. So i think the programmers at DMM have done a pretty good job and Ilaways try (!) not do do too much harm to their code

Good idea! I'll grep it.

I now understand your problem - the code in my Plugin' uses simply python string replace (Q&D I know) for moving in the new string, which will not work in this case. But changing this so that the name is always put at the right line of the string variable would be relative easy - because name and description are always at 2nd and 3rd line in the metafile which is easyto adress within the string array I use to read in the meta file content.

So if you know only a 'little' bit of python (which could be more then what i know) this should be easy to adapt.

If you are really "motivated" feel free to optimze the code, and create a new version out of it.

PS: I could even post you the 2 scripts needed to build the ipk out of it on the Dreambox itself, so that you don't need to have a full development environment to work on this extension.

Because I simply don't plan to continue work on this issue/plugin, but if it is an inspiration and you wanna continue this path you are welcome.

I wanna give it a try. It would be great if you post the scripts.
Is there a `full development environment` for development for the dreambox?

Thnx again!

ps. I like your avatar! Why don't you use it ?

Hi Frits,

I know restarting Enigma flushes the data to disk, but I think it's weird that I have to restart Enigma everytime I change timers for the case that....

Would it be possible to flush some data to disk instantly.
For example the timer-data.

I had programmed a couple of timers and an hour later there came a thunderstorm: DM7025 hanging. (there is already a thread for the hangingproblem: Dreambox hangs when signal is poor ).
After the hardboot the timers were gone.

Hi Gutemine,

Thank you for your response.
>> gutemine ist einfach schon ein altes Mädchen
You're the cleaninglady...
It's not easy: In Germany they have translated all names
zB Abraracourcix == Majestix, Bonemine == Gutemine
( http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonemine )
In NL they use the original names.

Now on topic again....
I tried to rename the title, not the files.
And in the source I've found the `problem` alias feature.

With an instant recording there is no title in the meta-file, so it cannot be replaced.
I've attached the 2 metafiles, 1 with EPG, 1 without EPG.
When renaming an EPG-recording it works perfect!

Something else:
Do you know where to find a classmodel of Enigma2.
I would like to program myself, but it's hard without classmodel/diagram.

Thanx again for all the plugins. I'm also using BA.

BW

Hi gutemine (why the 2 behind ? ),

I've tried your plugin, but I get an error (see att's).
The way it works is great!

For your second request, try the new cutlist editor from the newer CVS images. Simply open the video mode, select your movie and press "menu - cutlist editor". There you can edit your movies, cut off (virtually) unneeded beginnings and endings and commercials. Further you can insert chapter marks.
The files aren't actually cut, there are simply markers which tell the video player which part it shall play and which not.

Hi Olove,
Thanx for your fast response.
I'm an old Dreamer..... I'll try the cutlust editor.

Hi,

What I really like to do is change the name and metadata of recordings.
I have a dream-keyboard, so it would be very handy if I can use it for the renaming.

Another request: A simple way to cut a recording. I always record 15 minutes before and 30 minutes after (Veronica is bad in timing ) and I would like to remove the crap before and after.

BW

I'm very interested in the solution. A virtual NIM is a very good idea and is imho not very difficult to program.
Maybe a similar solution can be made for webradio. Than it can work the same way as a sat-radio channel and can be set into a bouquet.
