not working with Live TV

Open tetzlav opened this issue 11 years ago • 3 comments

I use OpenELEC 3.1.5 (Frodo 12.1) on AppleTV 1. The script works fine if i watch movie online or from NAS. Thank you, nice work!

But if i watch Live TV (vdr, plugin xvdr) the ambilight wont work. Is there another API for PVR?

I've read that boblight works with Live TV an ATV....

regards

thanks!

correct, if only works for video playback now, not for livetv. I'll leave this issue open, but I don't use XBMC for viewing live TV. As I'm unable to test it I won't add the feature soon, but if more people request it I might look into it...

Thank you for your answer. The funny thing is, sometimes your script already works with livetv. Maybe its just a small thing...

Today i played around a bit. If i start normal video playback ambilight starts to work how expected. After the normal playback the ambilight plugin also work with live tv after toggle pause/play. Without playing video before it does not work. Maybe live tv api does not inform the ambilight plugin about playback?
