The new plugin works for me now also, thanks!

Which directory does the plugin get installed in on MacOS?

Hi
I can't seem to get this plugin to work correctly on my Windows Home Server using an Australian HD Tivo. I am using the latest version of the plugin, the latest WMCbrine PyTivo and v 0.98 of FFMPEG. I am getting an error message in the debug log which I have pasted below. It seems likely it is some kind of compatibility issue between my version of PyTivo and the DVD plugin. All other PyTivo functions work fine Thoughts anyone?

Thanks for your help

Strange, that should have errored here too. I don't quite know why it works here. The fix is as follows:

data['vHost'] = (
['TRANSCODE=%s, %s' % ('YES', 'All DVD Video is re-encapsulated')] +
['SOURCE INFO: '] +
["%s=%s" % (k, v)
for k, v in sorted(vInfo.items(), reverse=True)] +
['TRANSCODE OPTIONS: '] +
["%s" % (v) for k, v in vobstream_options.items()] +
['SOURCE FILE: ', os.path.split(full_path)[1]]
)

That fixed it. Now working beautifully...

Much appreciated and thanks from Australia.

OK I tried to get this setup and I am stuck. I downloaded the zip file and unzipped it/renamed it like mentioned to C:\program files\Pytivo\plugins.

I then went to the pyTivo Web Configuration and added a section:

[DVDs]
Type: dvdvideo
path: F:\Movies

I have one folder under movies for testing but I don't see it show up anywhere even trying to use the link in one of the previous posts -

(A quick way to check is to check locally via webbrowser, http://localhost:9032/TiVoConnect?Command=QueryContainer&Container=DVDs )

I get unsupported command

Query:

Container ['DVDs']
command: ['QueryContainer']

Any help would be great.

Run pyTivo from a console session (i.e. not the Windows Service) so that you can see all the debug output.

Then copy and paste the debug output here.

In the pyTivon.conf file it is the following -

[DVDs]
type = dvdvideo
path = F:\Movies

What OS are you running?
