Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

I concur with jldcon re: the error message (and I have a full year premium subscription).

I've upgraded (love the new look, btw) but I'm getting the same error - even though my /home/user/.mlb/config file correctly states my username and login.

I can't remember now but if I trash that file, will the 'configuration' menu actually work in this latest version? It seems that 'configuration' never works again after the initial addition of your login and password... .

Yup. Trashed the file, rebooted (just because) and the configuration dialogue box reappeared. Entered everything correctly. And I'm getting the same error message :::sigh:::.

I've gone back and trashed all the /home/user/.mlb/ files, relaunched, filled in the 'configuration' box again and... still get the same error.

I've completely forgotten which log you like to see to help you track down awful culprits. The 'outputlog.txt', the 'log' or the 'mlboutputlog.txt' in the /home/user/MyDocs .

Did I mention the layout is really nice, though :-)

EDIT: I've trashed the outputlog.txt file, relaunched, tried a game, got the usual login error message (though my login and password are correct), took a look at the outputlog.txt again and rather abruptly ends during the listing of all the games. I did a search for 'error' and got nothing. A previous attempt ended in 'err' at the very end of the .txt file.

Well. I'm completely stumped now.

MORE EDIT: you know, I was stumped a while ago because the replays from previous days were even choppy and pixilated. But now... clear as day! So it seems that as long as the game isn't *today*, I can watch a beautiful video :-)

This is so bizarre... .

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Well dang... I just retested, and I get the same problem. I know that it worked for me last night right before I released... now it doesn't. I'm checking my log's to find out.

And jldcon, you're mention of your dell laptop reminds me: the easiest way to get around your n8x0's file system (or atleast the easiest that I've used) is to use openssh and winscp. openssh allows you to log in via a terminal (ssh) or over secure ftp (which is what winscp uses). In winscp you can browse all the directories as the root user, view/edit file contents, and upload/download files.

Hi,
I use mlbviewer on my desktop, love it!
On my N800 When I launch mlbviewer from the 'Extras" menu nothing happens.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

It seems to be working for me (I realized my previous issue was setting my user name to a@email.com) I'll update the package with the latest svn from mlbviewer tomorrow morning, hopefully that will fix the issue.

Mrbadboy's problem is due to an oversight on my part, I just redirect the standard output to a file, but the directory doesn't exist unless you've run the program at least once. (chicken, egg) so in the repackage I'm going to put a dummy log file to pre setup the /home/user/.mlb directory.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Good work, hvacengi! I have no troubles with the streaming and the new layout is much improved, thanks! :D

LOL! My mama always said I 'fell into a tub of butter'...just lucky I guess! :p

Plus the L'Astros are cellar dwelling right now, so I got some blues, eh? ;)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Ha! The Mariners just got two grand slams against Cleveland... in less than 6 innings.

Now let us see how they'll blow it :-P

It's the top of the 8th... they can't blow it. Can they? Um... naaaaaaaah.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

OK, I've released updated packages again. I have the most recent SVN from the main package (python-mlbviewer 0.0.2-1) and a coresponding update to mlbviewer_gui. They changed a few things with team name handling, so I had to fix the way I label games. I also made nationally blacked out game buttons sensitive, since the audio is still valid, and added the game status code after the time (which is now 24hr EDST, I have to look into converting it back and varying the time with the offset setting).

I tested this two ways: first I updated my already working version. Next I unistalled all three components, deleted the /home/user/.mlb folder and /usr/lib/mlbviewer_gui folder, and then reinstalled each component.

Works for me without issues.

I'm starting to wonder if maybe you're original /usr/lib/mlbviewer_gui/MLBviewer folder did not get deleted with the upgrade to switch to python-mlbviewer as the backend - python searches first in the running program's root folder, and then the python site packages folder when loading modules, so if you had the old version it would load first. Check the contents of /usr/lib/mlbviewer_gui and see what folders you have there.

Oh, and I actually email greyghost extra packages to make sure that his version works, in exchange for keeping all the other colored ghosts from haunting me ;-)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

The only way it worked for me was to uninstall everything and reinstall.

I tried trashing /usr/lib/mlbviewer_gui/MLBviewer but I just couldn't. Even after uninstalling everything. There was an 'MLBviewer' file in there. When I reinstalled everything, the file became 'OLDVMLBviewer' and the new components were added in the same /usr/lib/mlbviewer_gui/MLBviewer folder along with the renamed OLDMLBviewer one.

Just waiting for you to single-handedly upgrade and improve mPlayer.

BWAHAHAHAHAAHA.

Nah. I'm happy enough with just the audio and the potential with an eventual (I hope) mPlayer upgrade done by other people.

Many thanks again. :)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

So audio is working now? when you tried to delete /usr/lib/mlbviewer_gui/MLBviewer did you have root access? If not, you can use becomeroot to "sudo gainroot" and then run emelfm2 to try to delete it.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Audio *and* pixilated video! Yeaaaah.

I tried trashing just through emelfm2 and I managed to trash everything except what I mentioned. The untrashable subfolder automatically renamed itself.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Erm...we agreed not to talk about this, yes? :eek:

BTW, am still waiting for the 'extra package' that delivers the As*tros from the cellar...it'll just show up in the app mangler one day...right... :o

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

That's my line!;)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

This worked great. I deleted the older files and installed the new files and got the audio. Thanks so much for making this work.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Thanks so much. This is an awesome app! (I installed it on an N800 under Diablo with no problems). I am not even an MLB subscriber yet but like to watch the free game recaps! (am a lowly Cincy Reds fan!)

Thanks again! I'll look forward to further updates.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

The GUI now launches, I have Audio stream with Game Day, and I watched an Archived game last night.
Condensed games stop playing after a minute or two, and live games video is pixelated, audio works great.

With the desktop version, I had no luck with Mplayer, and configured mlbviewer to use VLC.

Hopefully Video happens soon.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Today is my first time here, I don't speak english , please perdon for my grammar errors.
I am a MLB subscriber , a Phillies fan, I need help with mlbviewer,I installed it on my n800 but I can't get nothing, the program open and I can login with my username and password , the viewer open but nothing else, no video ,no condensed games ,no audio.
I installed mlbviewer_gui-0.0.8-2_all
python-mlbviewer-0.0.1_all
phython-sinplejson-0.0.-1_all.

Please help me

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

I really wish the mplayer guys could somehow get this to work, this application was awesome to start with and just keeps getting better, yet I rarely use it, because of the video issues.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

You should have python-mlbviewer-0.0.2_all installed for 0.0.8-2 (it should have required it though)

And when you say you get nothing, what do you mean? Upon opening the program do you get a screeen with a bunch of buttons with game names and times on it? Does clicking on these change the view to show you audio, video, and condensed buttons? are they "grey"/inactive? Does clicking them bring up a message that it is launching? Does it next give a "stream caching" message, or does it give you an errror? If an error, what is it? There is a log file after every run at "/home/user/.mlb/outputlog.txt" which might include any exception data.

Do you have mplayer installed? What OS version are you using?


I'm glad it seems to be working for every one else. Thanks for the info on the condensed game mrbadboy, have you tried other games? It worked for the whole game in my experience. You can also customize the application that is launched (the stop stream button may not work if pressing q doesn't quit) and try using the vlc port for maemo. My understanding is that it isn't fully optimized, but if you have experience and the patience, it may be worth while.

But I have to say, none of you have pointed out the most obvious flaw with this release: the home and away teams are swaped. I'll patch it tonight and re-release.

Thanks to every one for testing, reporting, and enjoying!

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

I got all the buttons,all the games and times the butoon are green for live games red for no started games blue for archived games Yes clicking on these buttons change the view to show audio, video, and condensed games I get the stream catching, the score and two butoon STOP STREAM and BACK TO SCHEDULE
Yes I have mplayer installed and the OS is DIABLO
If you told me how Icansend the logs but I don't now where is "/home/user/.mlb/outputlog.txt,
Please tell me how to get python-mlbviewer-0.0.2_all

Sorry ,you are right I have mlbviewer-0.0.2-1_all and one time I got a error message It was fetish url

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

I just updated the package to fix the error in the home and away team names. I also included a seperate app to view the log file. This should help with figuring out what is wrong with your version jorgecallejas.

Change log:
"Added log viewing application (open xterm and run "mlblogviewer.py" without quotes). Only copy and paste in the n810 or an n800 with BT keyboard for now, but it should help see whats going on.

Fixed home and away team names swaped.

Fixed date/status label being fixed at 100px wide and cutting off some messages (now 200px)"

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Thank for all, but now what I have to do, delate mlbviewer and install the new version

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Just install from the new .deb file. It will update the application.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

I did but nothing

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Upgraded to 0.8-3, can't view condensed game, I can only watch top plays. Condensed game is grayed out.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Someone can tell me how to copy my log and send it to hvacengi.
I installed emelFM2 and at home/user/.mlb is a green outputlog txt empty,log , this file is big, cookie and config but I don't know what to do.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

well, you can copy and pate the text here in a reply, or if you go to the advanced posting option you can click "manage attachments" and upload the file. Updating to 0.0.8-3 should have made that command work, is the log viewer app working for anyone else?

mrbadboy, when you click on the game's button, does it say "(CG)" after the game time? The condensed games are not available right after the game finishes, so maybe you're just in the dead band.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

hvacengi,
There is no "CG" after the game time. I just got home, I will look at it on my desk top and N800.
Thanks for your hard work.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Everything is still grayed out, only the top plays are available on the N800.
Desktop condensed games are available.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Ok, I uninstalled, and reinstalled everything. I also removed the config file. Condensed games work, top plays too. The archived game is still pixalated.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Hmm, thats kind of odd. One of the python files must have gotten messed up some how. The gui just reads the game info for that "CG" to determine if it should make the condensed game button active or inactive, so for some reason it wasn't getting the CG flag. Glad that the reinstall fixed it. Have you tried the logviewer app to see if it works?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

I have not tried the Log Viewer. Will do so this evening.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Ok ran mlblogviewer, it opened, but no output?
I had it open while I was listening to the BOS/NYY audio feed. Mlbviewer gui locked up.
I was Watching the game on my desktop; is it a good idea to allow the Red Sox fans to have beer in the bottom of the 9th??

Not sure when to run the log viewer?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Very bad idea to allow either boston or new york fans beer in the ninth, thats just asking for a brawl!

After a crash, but before the next time you launch the mlbviewer_gui app, open xterm and run "mlblogviewer.py" (without quotes). It is installed in /usr/bin so you shouldn't need to use the full path. Let me know if it works, and if it turns up anything for your crash.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Will do. It will be late tomorrow.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

How copy the log file? I open /home/user/.mlb/log, when I clic the copy button I get a cannot create a file/log. permission denied message

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

Idelated all, mlbviewer, and with emelfm2 config, cookies, log, from home/user/mlb' reinstalled mlbviewer, but all is the same , i get the schedule, if a clic a game ,can view audio, mlb, at live games and audio, mlb and condended games at archved games but condensed games are greyout, clicking audio or mlb bring a catching stream message, but nothing else, because I cannot copy the log file I there are a picture

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

I got the condensed game button come active ,I unistalled all and delated the mlb file and installed all back,all look well but nothing work.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] mlbviewer_gui for maemo (Beta)
 

OK, I've uploaded some screen shots of my own here.
The first four show how to copy the log file to a folder "log" in the /home/user/MyDocs/.documents folder.
It is important to create the folder in the normal file manager, or running emelfm2 as root, other wise you won't have permision to create the folder.
It is also important to have the file on the left be the most recently selected file when you click copy. Once you have the log file copied out of a hidden folder (any folder starting with . is hidden) you can upload the file here.

**
Now before I bog you down with too many other pieces of information: What I am most looking for is the information about Mplayer. I want to see that it is launching, that it is caching, and that it is trying to play. If any part of those steps is messing up, then we need to find out why.
**


Otherwise, the begining of the data I'm interested is shown in screenshot5. If you have an N810 or a bluetooth keyboard you can use Ctrl + A to select all and Ctrl + C to copy, and then paste the text into a reply or new file.

Also otherwise, screenshot7 and 8 show how I access the built in logviewer that I wrote. Just enter the command as shown in the screen shot, and it should open.

Also otherwise, starting with screenshot10, you can see how I run the program with all of my debuging output visable from the terminal. This won't do you much good in showing me what's wrong, but it may help you see just what's going on with future issues.
