Someone help a noob please... I'm on R5D1
I copied the mythXM_installer.sh through Samba to myth\tmp (the first place I checked that wasn't write-protected)...

Ran the script from that same directory in Putty, while logged in as root. (Frontend was up, watching TV actually)

Entered username and pswd when prompted and for button picked "MAXAMIZE" for my ATI remote...

seemed to have done its thing successfully... but now...

1)How do I use this? I dont have any new buttons, and the maximize button on the remote doesn't do anything new... actually...

2)my Stream and Games buttons disappeared... I read the previous post about adding it back, but was this supposed to happen? How do I get the same R5D1 buttons I had before back?

3) Reading the typed out script posted previously, I see mention of what channel to start playing... this was never asked in the process, figured I'd mention this.

Please "baby-step" me through this... I only know enough to be dangerous (as you can see)....

Thanks!

If maximize is a valid button on your remote in your lircd.conf file then it should work and yo uprobably just need to restart your frontend.

Stream should still be in the menu but as mentioned before i removed games from mine and used mine as a template so just add the before mentioned code to library.xml to get it working again.

The chan that is playing is specified in the new XM_*.xml files.

Also if you restart your frontend you should see the chan logos too.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, got it to work! Had to rerun it... power down and up, just restarting the back and front ends didn't kick it in for some reason...

Then I had input my username incorrectly (forgot it was my whole e-mail address needed for XM) and when I'd click on a channel it would just sit there... I thought it would prompt for a correct password so I didn't check that until I ran out of options...

But now... it's GREAT!!! WAF skyrocketed!!!! Thanks!!

One more thing...
How can I make the song info show permanently? I upped the 5000 value to 15000 to give more time. Ideally, I would like a way for the song info to show in a more graphical way, integrated with the animation screen, just steady in a small part of the screen like WMP does, not in a separate popup. Is this doable?

Also, is there a way to leave this playing and then go watch pictures, or do something else?

Thanks again! This is fantastic!!

To leave the song info on forever just take out the time value and it will stay on forever. I have been looking intto ways of getting it to look better but i have not had time to look any further.

Rocky,

Just wanted to dedicate a message without additional requests to thanking you for this!!!!

Just a few days ago I thought I threw away forever the idea of ever listening to XM on my main equipment at home. This would have entailed upgrading my receiver to one XM-ready ($$$$$$)... then would have had to purchase an XM tuning thing...(about $50-100)... and THEN... pay 7 bucks a month to XM for using an additional receiver...

You just saved me HUNDREDS... well, actually I was not going to go through with it at all if I had to pay, so let me rephrase... you just GAVE me hundreds of dollars worth of upgrades!!!

Thanks again!!!

Jester

Rocky,

Ok I finally had time to look into things and have figured out what happened.

When you made your changes to the install script the path is wrong in
mv /usr/share/myth/library.xml /usr/share/myth/library.xml.bak

This fails and the library.xml file never gets updated.

It should be mythtv instead of just myth.

Since I had installed it before from your first script it worked until I upgraded.

I added in the correct library.xml from your archive file and now it's working.

If your looking for ideas for the title box I think it would be cool if you used the type used to display the channel information then fades away.

Since some like the idea of the title being there all the time make it an selection from the install script.

Thanks for the help.

jester747,
Thanks for that. Its good to know people like this.

tscholl,
I have updated the script with the correct path. do you think it will work with myth .20 now?

Also i will look into making a more graphically appealing osd similar to the one used for live tv osd.

Rocky,

There are still some problems with the script, all of the your *.xml files end up in "/usr/share/mythtv" instead of "/usr/share/mythtv/mythXM" your also doing a
"chmod 644 /usr/share/mythtv/XM_*" which dosent exist, and something strange is happening but I haven' figured out what.

After I make the edits to the library.xml, and then reboot, the mytharchive menus quit working. Havent figured out why yet.

Hi rocky007,

Just to let you know that a couple of us think your XM is rather slick. My friend has xmradio however being a ms guy he sometimes needs my assistance to get things going. It took a couple times to figure out the tricks but with in ~15 minutes he was listening.

One obervation he noted was that the menus show the groups and then the specific channels by name where on the radio they are by channel numbers. He was a happy when I last chatted as he was editting the list of stations to put in the numbers in front of the menu items, (115 - Disney) now show both..

He also mentioned that some items that are available by radio are not via the web so he now knows how to <!-- to those unavailable --> ones out of the list.

Also made the window of information 600 x 150 and time of 20000 which he found much more suitable to his liking.

The way the script works is if you don't have an account, then you can't install the menus. Maybe install the menus then add a setup script in the utilities menu to add account information? That way if a person were to make a box for someone else, they could enter their own needed information?

All in all, very nice :) Almost makes one interested to obtain an account. I would bet that if XMRadio were to setup a couple day free test default account from an install they would probably recruit a few more subscribbers that would not normally even consider it.

Would be nice to be able to turn on/off the eye candy and also make it an option for the radio to play when viewing items in the image gallery. But that may be just me as my machine is very non standard :)

For a beginner, a lot of these nice features are a bit intimidating to setup. Your script does a good job of easing some of that pain for them.

Also, not sure of why, however in the addition of the remote button, it appended it to the the last entry. " endbegin " looks like it missed a couple cr's.

Thank you !
Mike

This sounds really great. I wish there was something like that for Sirius. :(

I'd be willing to add an online listening account to my Sirius account, if someone would be willing to try to work up something exactly like this for Sirius. It would be fantastic to be able to listen to Sirius through my Myth box while I'm lounging around and such, or working on projects.


Thanks!
--Eric

Rocky,

I finally had time to look at the code and have figured out why your install creates problems with the menus if you are running version .20 and using the Titivillus theme in mythtv.

During the install you overwrite the themes/Titivillus/theme.xml with the one you created to support your XM module. There some changes in the themes/Titivillus/theme.xml from version .19 to .20 this creates problems.

The quick fix is to remove the theme.xml from your tar and it will work on either .19 and .20 without any problems, but without the nice icons.

I just wanted to throw in my experience with the script. Overall it looks like it will be awesome, but I've run into a few difficulties:

1. I have a 720p HDTV. I updated the -G flag in the scipt's call to xine to set the correct geometry (both size and offset). I also added "--aspect-ratio anamorphic" to get the visualization to fill the screen, instead of just a 4x3 area. My guess is that this setting would also work for 4x3 sets.

2. I switched to a great new Theme called blootube-wide (http://homepage.ntlworld.com/justin.hor ... twide.html), made by the same guy that did ProjectGrayhem. I had to copy the PNG files to the new theme and edit the theme.xml file manually to add the button objects. It would be nice to update the PNGs to fit with the theme and add the theme to the install script (but I'm sure you don't want the hassle of supporting multiple themes).

3. I can't get the audio to actually play. I have a home brew Dragon, using the optical AC3 output of the Chaintech AV710 (as opposed to the onboard Nvidia soundcard). Are there some xine flags I need to modify here?

4. I was able to get the IR remote to trigger the OSD, but I can't get it to quit xine when I want to stop listening. This requires me to have access to a keyboard. Is this normal?

Is there any chance that #3 and 4 are related to me using the blootube-wide theme instead of Tivillus? I guess I'll switch themes back later to test...

I can't wait to get this all working!

Thanks,
Chris
