Feature Request: TVGuide on Android Display #45

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Pressing TVGuide Button on Navigation Tab opens TVGuide on MythTV Output 
Device (i.e., TV).
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Same.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Current version available in Market.

Please provide any additional information below.
If possible I'd like a setting option to display the TVGuide on the remote 
(android device)'s display rather than calling up the TVGuide on the MythTV 
display.  

In other words, I'd like to have the TV output remain the same while the 
android device displays the contents of the guide.

Just a thought.  :)

kev.

One way of achieving this is to connect to mythweb from the remote, it 
illustrates the possibilities.  With this in mind I have made some experimental 
hacks to my R190 using android.webkit and WebView. This is by no means ideal, 
it does have lots of limitations but is only a beginning.

The telnet interface does have listings available with the query command but a 
full tv guide implementation might be a bit cumbersome. Dan Frey mentioned 
using mythxml which looks to be a better solution. Check out the mythtv wiki.

Which as per that wiki page is being completely rewritten in 0.25 to be less 
cumbersome, and allow JSON instead of XML.

Sorry for the double, see also http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Services_API

In fact, everything could be rewritten to use that API eventually, since it's 
going to be able to do anything the current telnet can do and anything mythweb 
can do combined.
