    poster in next events works using this code

    Quote

    <widget source="Event" render="PosterX" position="931,184" size="185,278" path="/media/hdd/poster/" zPosition="9" />

    change stb language to arabic...

    or add

    language="ar"

    to the code


    There should be a poster in arabic on the tmdb site...

    check on pc first...

    if there is an arabic poster about the event, it will show...

    I will have some experience and advice on this subject...

    - "urllib (2)" uses the lightest...least cpu to download files...

    - "start_new_thread" is a good option for background download. It's lighter than "Thread"....prevents spinner from working...

    "eTimer" can be used as an alternative...but I don't remember why I didn't use it...it's been a while...

    - event name filtering, each added was born out of a requirement...

    Based on satellite broadcasts on 13 and 19e... added by a russian friend for russian channels...


    the code that doesn't download a lot in the background seems to be faster...

    it will have to update both that code and this one...

    in the next days...I don't know when it will happen...

    this is the the simplest form of the code...

    pstr.py


    but,

    TV channels do not give their movie-series names in their original form...it needs to be filtered...

    then everyone wants to download posters in their language...this is being added...

    It is necessary to determine whether the event is a movie or a series...

    If there is, the year is added..etc..etc..

    I also added a lot of downloads in the background...

    became posterx...


    Of course, everyone is free to change the code as they wish...

    it seems to me that just filtering the event name is enough...

    even in this state, it can be found with a high degree of accuracy... except for special cases...


    the code in the first post is working...new tested...


    options;

    path="/media/hdd/poster/"

    language="en"

    nexts="1"

    size="185,278"


    Code
    <widget source="session.Event_Now" render="PosterX" position="40,140" size="185,278" path="/media/hdd/poster/" zPosition="9" /

    hi,


    enigma2 restarts after pressing download with timer

    pls help

    because it was programmed that way...it's okay...

    to start a search at startup...

    If you don't want to be called immediately, just exit the plugin...the settings will be saved...

    if restart is crash, add log file...

    it would be more helpful especially if you add this..../tmp/xtraEvent.log

    ok..

    I'm dealing with nacht skin these days...

    It makes more sense to make posterx compatible with the plugin...

    I'll do it sometime...

    looks nice...

    especially the menu is very nice...

    However, if you'll excuse me, I'd like to make a couple of points...

    1- bitrate will not work on every device...

    2- large images need to be optimized...

    especially on large images, alphatest="blend" command should be avoided...it seriously degrades performance...

    for optimizing,

    These are my first observations...

    good work...

    for background,


    zPosition="1"



    for poster,


    zPosition="2"

    should it be like this,

    if there is a poster the background should appear,

    if there is no poster the background should not be visible...

    Your code should work...

    first, replace pstrBG with pstrNm

    If it works this way, it will also work as a background...

    Note the value of zPosition="x"...

    It should be small for the background and large for the poster...

    zPosition="0"

    zPosition="1"

    dear digiteng

    hope you're doing good

    after xtraEvent 3.6 update i face strange issue on plugin (4.0 to 5.2 all updates) when i try to download poster manually or trough plugin the error show on screen (No Internet Connection Or Faulty ) even my internet working fine.. but working fine on previous versions.

    will you please help us to fix this issue

    #screenshots Attached

    Change dns to 8.8.8.8, and network restart...

    or

    telnet,

    Code
    wget -q "--no-check-certificate" https://github.com/digiteng/xtra/raw/main/xtraEvent.sh -O - | /bin/sh


    reinstall with this command...


    These are the first things that come to my mind...

    here is the problem, the convert file "NitroExtraInfo.py"...

    backdrop works if you disable it...

    you need to fix this file...

    too many errors appear...

    but it's not related to your problem, i guess...

    zPosition="-2" this can cause problems...

    If the background png is greater than -2 it will not be visible...

    make this > zPosition="2"...

    Hi is there any way to add my api keys instead of writing them inside plugin?

    telnet ,

    init 4

    go and open,

    /etc/enigma2/settings


    add...,

    config.plugins.xtraEvent.tmdbAPI=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    config.plugins.xtraEvent.tvdbAPI =xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    config.plugins.xtraEvent.omdbAPI =xxxxxxxxxxx

    config.plugins.xtraEvent.fanartAPI=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx


    save...

    init 3

    Our dear developer... @digiteng

    Thank you for all the continuous additions and updates to the wonderful plugin

    I had a question or suggestion if possible

    When the series is shown, a poster is downloaded for each episode... Is it possible to identify the series by name and ignore the episode numbers, and download one poster that appears for all episodes

    I don't quite understand... different posters are not downloaded for each episode...

    For example, the poster with the most likes on tmdb is being downloaded...because it's in the first place...if you want a different poster for each episode to be downloaded......................

    fixed with v4.2...

    also,

    I started making a custom channel list for the plugin...

    I don't know when it will end...

    v4.0 update



    - various fixes...

    - Fixed bug in "bouquet" selection...

    I guess..because some stbs had this error...

    - Improvements have been made to render files...all epg scans have been removed unnecessarily...

    some files will have 1 scan, some will have around 10 scans..


    - Added support for fontSize="xx" for xtraBackdropList.py

    - Added support for fontSizeNow="xx" fontSizeNexts="xx" for xtraBackdropList2.py

    you can add to skin codes...

    - a general problem with the arabic language for the plugin...

    I did not use the classical method for language support... because to translate the whole plugin..

    I don't know if there is a problem in arabic language because of this...

    Arabic can also be written from right to left...

    no problem with openatv 6.4...

    If those who use the stb language arabic want to use the plugin in english, I can remove the arabic support...

    no problem detected in other languages...


    You can update it via the plugin (yellow button) or telnet code,

    wget -q "--no-check-certificate" https://github.com/digiteng/xtra/raw/main/xtraEvent.sh -O - | /bin/sh
