XBMC (Old board see 'KODI' above) / Re: General help setting up

Sorry, I hadn't visited for a few days and you beat me to it! Thanks again for the great software. I now have a basic rig for the car. Xbmc and vc running. Laptop hooked into auxiliary input on stereo. Mic on the laptop, and "sidemonitor" running on the iPhone connected via adhoc. Sidemonitor let's your iPhone/iPod function as an external monitor. Too laggy for video but works perfectly as a "now playing" for audio. Needs tidying up but the basic principles are sound.

Ok solved. Windows 7 needs a loopback adaptor installing to allow connection to the local host.

It's a bit odd. vc connects to xbmc fine when laptop connected to network. Turn network off and start the programs and it doesn't connect. The strange thing is that you can turn the network on, start programs then disconnect from the network and xbmc continues to recieve commands? I've queried it on the xbmc forum so we'll see.

oh well.

On a different note the commands "fast forward" and "rewind" don't seem to do anything?

Once again great program!

Problem was that I had downloaded both Dharma and Camelot but without realising had installed Camelot (Doh!) which has issues with the imdb scraper - fix in xbmc forum. Dharma installed now and everything working a treat :)

Another quick question though, can vc connect to xbmc on the same machine without going through a network? I ask because it's proving so reliable that it would work nicely as an in-car system.

Update!

The issue is with the imdb scraper in xbmc not returning titles.

Thanks for all the help.

I'm back!

So this is interesting. After tinkering around a bit I have managed to somehow stop vox from generating any xml, no worries i will reinstall both vc and xbmc. The interesting thing is that when attempting to gen xml they all return as 0 except the movies one which throws up an error-  "The 'li' start tag on line 2 does not match the end tag of 'html'. Line 2, Position 36"

I'll have a tinker with it first and see what I can come up with.
My accent isn't bad, just british :)
Thanks for all your help. I'll keep you posted.

Hey James,

I meant that I had only checked one and found an error. After another look they have all got this error. From my reading I may be able to fix it with WMP, if not I shall have to go trawling for a meta data editor somewhere.

Other than the movie problem Vox is working great! I've had adjust the confidence levels slightly but thats probably just my accent..

All files were in library view and scraped to within an inch of their lives with pictures, cast etc (One of my favourite features in XBMC)

After your comment i checked the properties of one of my movie files and the Title box is empty which I would imagine is causing this error. I have done a bit of googling and i'm attempting to edit this information (although it's not as easy as an ID3 tag edit)

Will let you know how it goes.

Please don't apologise, I feel bad about pestering you with questions.

If I delete xbmcmusicvideos and xbmcmovies it throws up an error message but continues fine.

None of my movies have unusual characters. Here is an example of naming conventions..C:\Users\Emma\Videos\Movies\Jay And Silent Bob Strike Back 2001

Gen xml states that it finds 14 movies but xml file only says ..
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!--A VoxCommando Payload file-->
<PayloadsRoot />

then blank. I appreciate that I could probably manually enter the information but as my movie library grows I can imagine it becoming slightly tedious.

Right on the money.

I have no music videos. I can continue past this point but vox doesn't get past loading.. so i need to either create a music video folder and put something in it or somehow remove it entirely?
"generate xml" is picking up artists / albums / tv and it seems to recognise the correct number of movies but upon inspection xmbcMovies xml is empty?

Again, many thanks.

Hey jitterjames,

Thanks for the speedy reply and apologies for any vagueness. I am using xbmc 9.11 - Dharma Beta 3.

Passwords / ports set ok etc

no firewall isssues

same pc

"VoxCommandoXBMC 0_825 EN.zip".......whoops, oh yeah. :-[ - I've downloaded am and currently in the process of setting this up but looks promising. I have already established that it works with some rudimentary commands.

Everything seemds to be fine until i restart after generating xml. "unhandled exception has occured in your application.....'one-of must contain at least on item'

What am I doing wrong now? :)

Hi,

I'm having the same problem as hawsey. I have the latest version of XBMC and have downloaded vox commando from the download page. I have followed the setup guide and read the XBMC for dummies guide. The two programmes seem to communicate as the vox commando recognises movies etc when generating xml. All ports are setup properly but that's as far as it goes. I cannot get vox commando to actually affect xbmc. Having read the reply to hawsey the only thing I can see is that it's a slightly different version of vc as "VoxCommandoXBMC 0_825 EN.zip" no longer appears to be on the xbmc for dummies post.

Can someone please help. I have no doubt that it's something i'm doing but I cannot figure out what.

Any help would be gratefully accepted.
