Plugin: CDManager (Update 09.19.2010)

1)

Thats barely could be the CDManager bug: it does nothing with subtitles.

2)

Thats not a bug: as you might see "Media Folder" plugin hides all sub menu items under "Local drives" menu including the one CDManager creates. Once its impossible (or I do not know how) to reliably recognize if "Media Folder" plugin is loaded (because, depending on the loading order at the time of my initialization another plugin could possible be not loaded yet), the only possible workaround I can suggest for those who use this plugin with CDManager is to move "Eject button" one level up by replacing the code in doBuildMenus manually :

Code: Select all

CDManagerPlugin.prototype.doBuildMenus = function() {
   this.Debug.Log("[ doBuildMenus ]");

        Menu.Top["$$Video"].addChild(new Menu("ejectMenu", "$$Eject Optical Disk", this.rootPath + "eject_n.png", this.rootPath + "eject_f.png", true));

        Menu.Top["$$Music"]["$$Local Drives"].addChild(new Menu("ejectMenu", "$$Eject Optical Disk", this.rootPath + "eject_n.png", this.rootPath + "eject_f.png", true));

        Menu.Top["$$Photos"]["$$Local Drives"].addChild(new Menu("ejectMenu", "$$Eject Optical Disk", this.rootPath + "eject_n.png", this.rootPath + "eject_f.png", true));

        Menu.Top["$$Music"]["$$Local Drives"].ejectMenu.handler = function() {
      CDManagerPlugin.instance.eject();
   }
        Menu.Top["$$Video"].ejectMenu.handler = function() {
      CDManagerPlugin.instance.eject();
   }
        Menu.Top["$$Photos"]["$$Local Drives"].ejectMenu.handler = function() {
      CDManagerPlugin.instance.eject();
   }
}

i've integrated the disc eject button bit from this into wdlxtv-live.

the disc monitor is not necessary anymore as I've fixed cd-manager to do all the loading automagically

enhancements i made:
- eject button is hidden when booted with no optical drive
- /conf/config:CDMANAGER_LEVEL key to set eject button level to main category level or inside local folders

thanks arifg.

I wander if it is possible to play a DVD movie full screen rather than in 4:3 format? When I play such a movie from an ISO file (from hard disk), it is shown full screen; but when I do it from a DVD disc it is shown in 4:3 (black strips on the sides).

EDIT: I have found out that if a DVD movie had been recorded in 16:9, it is shown in full screen regardless of the playing source.

Oh cool! What release of firmware it it would be implemented in?

Hello.

It's not going so well for me. I can see the eject button under the "local drive" menu, but it does not work. Also, if I try to list the files on the drive, I get a "no files found" error message.

However, if I use the USMP media server instead, I can go to "optical drive" and browse my DVD. The eject button also works once.

The USMP is very flaky with my DVD drive, it will only list the content of the drive if I reboot with a drive inserted. But this is still better then the CDManager plugin.

Any ideas?

Any ideas?

Telnet to the box and execute the commands:

Code: Select all

cat /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info

Code: Select all

cat /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info | grep "drive name" | cut -f3

Tell me what they will return back.
