Hello,

I'm using the videoplayer SDK modified by belltown viewtopic.php?p=352494

My question is I'd like to remove the runtime "0m" from the springboard of only our live streams but leaving the runtime tag available for VOD and AOD content. I'd like to be able to just edit our XML files by just inserting a "<runtime>null</runtime>" whenever we'd like the runtime duration tag to not display on the springboard.

What code would I need to add in our "appDetailScreen.brs" and/or our "showFeed.brs" to make this happen? I would image this should be a simple.

Thanks!

Chris

Have you tried not including the runtime element on those entries?

[chris2]

Yes, I've tried removing the runtime tag completely from the XML file and a duration of "0s" still displays.

Then I'm afraid you're going to have to get your hands dirty with the code. Locate the line in the code that sets the "Length" metadata attribute, and only set it if a value is present in the XML feed.

You probably have it defaulting the value in init_item when you parse the feed.
