PLAY_STARTED Event for LiveTV?

[Ben Hardill <b.hardill@…>]

Hi,

I've been playing with the new Event model in the 0.23 stream (using the rpms from atrpms) and I really like it but I've come across a couple of things that don't seam to work as expected.

When starting LiveTV I don't get a PLAY_STARTED event for what ever is playing when I start. There is a REC_STARTED event but there is no way to tell that from that if it's Live or if it's just a scheduled recording.

Also if I change channel I don't get a PLAY_CHANGED event which given the description in the change (23012) set I would expect.

PLAY_STARTED events do get fired when I watch recordings and PLAY_CHANGED events get thrown if I use the "Jump to Recording" menu to switch recorded playback.

Have I miss understood?

Please read the ticket howto, milestones are for developer use.

version info moved to file

(In [24278]) Add a new LIVETV_STARTED System Event to signal when LiveTV starts. We can't easily send a PLAY_STARTED with the proper program info, and LIVETV_STARTED helps differentiate between playback of a recording vs LiveTV.

Send a PLAY_CHANGED System Event when we jump to the next program in NuppelVideoPlayer?.

Closes #8388.

(In [24279]) Carry over [24278] from trunk.

Add a new LIVETV_STARTED System Event to signal when LiveTV starts. We can't easily send a PLAY_STARTED with the proper program info, and LIVETV_STARTED helps differentiate between playback of a recording vs LiveTV.

Thank you for this, it works a treat.

There seams to be one case I had missed earlier, when one program ends and another starts while watching live tv.

I'm going to have a look at seeing if I can add something myself, as/if/when I get it working I'll submit a patch
