Also, simply following your instructions at
http://pytivo.krkeegan.com/pytivo-stopped-working-t412-15.html#3256
didn't work to allow me to enable the service. I could run the console, but not the service.
After I copied pyTivoService.exe...and...crap, sorry, another pyTivoService.* file I was able to start the service. |

My bad, I'll update the instructions. Seems krkeegan's installer does some extra magic to install those because they don't show up in his git fork. |

| Not that it matters at this point whether I'm running it via console or service... |

In your pyTivo.conf, change your beacon line under the Server section to the specific IP of your Tivo box which I believe you said was 192.168.0.2, so:
| Code: | beacon = 192.168.0.2 |
There are reports from others saying that the default beacon isn't working and setting the beacon to the specific IP(s) should fix it for now. |

Thanks for not giving up on me.
Unfortunately, the specific beacon trick (the first thing I tried, actually) doesn't do it. I've tried it variously through this process, and I did it again in response to your suggestion.
.2 is my server.
.8 is my Tivo. |

Hey, uh, I got home from work today to find that my pyTivo is working!
Thanks so much for all your help.

Here's a long shot.
Shutdown pyTivo, then edit your pyTivo.conf and add this to your Server section:
Make sure you have your beacon line still set to just your Tivo's IP address, then start pyTivo.
See if that works. |

Ah, cool. Maybe the beacon line worked, but you just needed to wait for the Tivo to refresh. |

Nah, I had started my post and then got distracted. Meanwhile you posted your success and then I finally hit the submit button  |

| Now to see if I can make my mp3s show up. Do I need to install a plugin or something? |

No extra plugin needed. The music plugin is builtin.
However, the music share shows up under the Find Download something or other.
Also, if you're using the latest wmcbrine fork, the music player may have a slight problem. There's a line of code that needs fixing for it to detect the right song duration. I've been meaning to tell wmcbrine about it, but I keep forgetting.
Shutdown pyTivo.
Open pyTivo\plugins\music\music.py in your favorite text editor and change the following line:
| Code: | durre = re.compile(r'.*Duration: (.{2}):(.{2}):(.{2})\.(.),').search |
to
| Code: | durre = re.compile(r'.*Duration: ([0-9]+):([0-9]+):([0-9]+)\.([0-9]+),').search |
Be careful not to change the spacing before the line at all, save and restart pyTivo.
That's the important fix otherwise fastforward/rewind and the time estimation won't work.
There is another small fix where the milliseconds are slightly off, but it really doesn't affect things.

| Boy, I'm happy with pyTivo. This is great. Too bad about my AvelLink, though. I'll have to put it to use somewhere, I guess... |

No, it would be under the "Music, Photos & More" menu.

Do tell.

My bad.
As for the timing fix, when calculating the total milliseconds duration, the multiplier for the decimal part varies based on the digits of precision. I think this fixes the math, but just using the constant 100 factor wasn't really that far off
In pyTivo\plugins\video\transcode.py, change:
| Code: |
if d:
vInfo['millisecs'] = ((int(d.group(1))*3600) + (int(d.group(2))*60) + int(d.group(3)))*1000 + (int(d.group(4))*100)
else:
vInfo['millisecs'] = 0
|
to:
| Code: |
if d:
vInfo['millisecs'] = ((int(d.group(1))*3600) + (int(d.group(2))*60) + (int(d.group(3))))*1000 + (int(int(d.group(4))*(10**(3 - len(d.group(4))))))
else:
vInfo['millisecs'] = 0
|
I might have stuck in more parentheses that really required, but it helps me keep the terms straight by righting it all out.
And there is a similar line for calculating the millisecond duration in pyTivo\plugins\music\music.py that needs the same change. |
