Early Adopter Bug Report for el.wubo: Part Deux
That is very strange behavior for the music link. I've retested everything on windows and linux (no mac yet.) Please verify that you installed the channel following my just-now-added instructions in the previous post. If that doesn't work try disabling partitioning by setting max_folders_before_split to -1 in springboard... could be I've introduced a bug there.
I went back, read the instructions, and reinstalled the channel. I did everything, except copy the old config file. I copy and paste my paths straight from windows every time I install and they are correct. My ip addresses are correct also, because the feed works and the channel installs fine. I'm running Vista, if that factors in in any way, and I let pil install in the default place Python26>Lib>site-packages.
I was still getting the same problem with the music, so I set the max_folders_before_split to -1. It found my music, but there are problems with the images. Most of the artist folders has the yellow folder images, but some say 'image not available', and one is all gray (not the normal light gray, but a dark gray). I think all the 'image not available' ones were previously album art (jpg).
I also noticed that on the feed and channel after all my music file are a bunch of album art picture files with long numbered and lettered names (ex. AlbumArt_{9B4BA673-349E-470B-A746-BF6F135C6B3E}_Small) and at the end one picture called AlbumArt and one called Folder. They all say 'image not available.' None of these files are in the music directory on my computer. I tried restarting the roku and it still shows up that way.
As a sanity check, can you try cycling the power on your Roku?
I tried restarting. Still none of the jpg images in my picture folder will show (I get 'image not available') and none of large gifs/png (I get 'retrieving image'). Some of the gifs have dark gray on some or most of the picture. It seems like every sub folder has a least one totally dark gray jpg. I got the first two top level folders (my music/video) to show after uninstalling/reinstall pil and restarting the channel/server, but the my photo folder still has dark gray on the bottom half.
Hopefully, someone else will give a report too. That way you can figure out if it's just my wacky self that is having a problem or if it's some thing with the channel programming.
