Title was empty, seek bar screwed up. The whatsOn response said liveCache but the offer gave no content. Was being recorded.

Be more explicit about non-TiVo branded devices

1. Be extremely explicit about the message given when selecting an (e.g.) Virgin Media or ComHem branded device.
2. Block sending error reports when such a condition is detected.

Enhance PC vs. TiVo detection

Via email from wmcbrine:

I posted a little about this on TCF the other day, but anyway, I just noticed this bit of code in Discover.java:

} else if (platform.startsWith("pc/")) {
  Utils.log("Ignoring event for PC platform.");
  // This is a e.g. a TiVo Desktop or pyTivo share. Exclude it.
  return;

I should tell you that I've only used a platform string that matches this ("pc/pyTivo") since November 2012 (and then, only for video shares); before that it was variously "pc" or "pyTivo". Hence, I guess, why some people (running older pyTivo versions) are still complaining about their pyTivo shares appearing in DVR Commander.

Maybe you could check for a TSN? pyTivo has never provided that.

So this detection logic could be a bit more intelligent about selecting away PyTivo vs. TiVo Desktop shares.

Add a "Now Viewing" screen

Which would have some basic info/options like the individual episode view that My Shows offers, and a play time readout and scrub bar and play/pause/seek buttons.

Release on the blackberry app world

Blackberry 10 has some sort of android app emulation/support. It should be possible to distribute via blackberry app world.

latest Tivo Premier XL update broke Tivo Commander

don't know more than the the subject line. Sorry. I can gather some data if you like, but let me know what it would be.

My Shows: Long press, delete last show leaves empty list

nb

Fix the multicast error string

Device search failed. (Read below and) Try custom settings.

This isn't a great message to display when multicast detection fails.

Update third party dependencies

jackson and jmdns surely have updated since last release

Doesn't work with hardware keyboard

My Transformer tablet with keyboard dock does not work with the keyboard part of the remote control.

Refresh the My Shows list when appropriate.

1. My Shows
2. Open folder
3. Long press+delete, or explore+delete
4. Back up to same my shows view from 1

The folder opened at 2 displays, with the old number of shows, before the delete.

Action bar: don't show the current view

nb

Error reports: custom dialog

Require that the user types something before allowing the report to be sent.
Request (require?) a picture of the TiVo device itself. (To catch non-branded devices.)
Remind users that I'm just one guy giving away a free app.

Consider moving work off of the main thread

MindRpc.dispatchRespose() runs all its callbacks on the UI thread, because that's easy -- most all of them end up constructing UI objects, and have to. But not all of them and not the whole of the work of each one. Running them on the network / a dedicated thread, and having each delegate to the UI thread only at the appropriate time might speed up the app / make it appear more responsive.

But it would be a lot of work and can't be done partially. So consider this.

A lot more logging

Log all details when trying to connect.
Log interaction with custom device pane.
Read the system log into error reports.

Can't display downloaded programs

When I try to select a show that was downloaded or pushed from pyTivo, I just get a "Response missing content" error that drops me back on the My Shows screen, making it impossible to, say, delete it.

I tried to debug this myself, but it seems that building from source requires a client certificate/password that isn't in the git repository.

Refresh the To Do list when appropriate.

1. Navigate to To Do list.
2. Click on an entry.
3. Click Record...
4. Click Don't record.
5. Press back

The to do list will now still list the item you just set not to record. Go back and to To Do List again (to make it load data again) and now it won't. It should reload the moment you come back to it, if recordings were changed.

Crash when pressing title during TBA status

nb

Release on the Amazon app store

nb

Don't show the error report dialog for common errors.

Today common and/or permanent errors (wrong brand device, multicast doesn't work, etc.) show the Help dialog which unconditionally includes the error report button. So I get lots of unactionable error reports.

When there are warnings/errors, trend towards showing a custom dialog, where the Help dialog is another click away.

Consider integrating a bug reporting solution

http://acra.ch/ seems highly recommended.

In Explore view, (some?) movies are still offering "add season pass" choice for "record..."

nb

Season Pass Manager: Long press options wrong for wishlist

Long press on a wishlist search and it will say modify/cancel season pass. That won't work right. Maybe cancel will, but if so it should be labeled differently.

Support platform "tcd/XG1"

User reported inability to connect to the device named "family room" which was described as a tivo premiere device (while "master bedroom" is a mini).

Because it says platform: tcd/XG1 which is currently not allowed. I don't know what XG1 means, but all the premieres I've seen have said Series4.

"Upcoming" list shows wrong details

When picking one of the items from the "Upcoming" list, the wrong episode's details will be loaded.

The Now Showing screen "breaks" with video display off

TiVo. HD UI. Turn off the video in the corner (e.g. press the "slow" button on the remote to toggle it). Open the Now Showing screen. Spinner spins forever. As soon as video starts playing, then the info and scrub bar load. In this case, the whatsOnList RPC returns "playbackType" : "idle" with no content/collection/offer IDs.
The official app crashes; the official "for tablets" app says "To Be Announced" on the relevant screen.

If the SD UI is in use, the whatsOnList says "playbackType" : "loopset" with no content/collection/offer IDs. The official apps display the same behavior.

Unable to connect to Virgin Media TiVo (even with v15)

Virgin Media (in the UK) updated their firmware in January 2012 and made it difficult to connect to MindRPC. I was hopeful that your changes for #15 would make TiVo Commander work again, but apparently it doesn't.

I can confirm that the latest version (v0p8t) of kmttg DOES work.

I also used the cert & password from kmttg in my prototype Windows Phone 7 app, and got it working, too. That's using the C# version of BouncyCastle, and I did have to make a change to the sources to ignore a failure to validate the KeyUsage settings on the server certificate.

Scrub Bar wrong for old "live" show

Start a live recording. Pause the TiVo. Wait until well after the recording ends without touching the TiVo (i.e. overnight). Open DVR Commander. The scrub bar is wrong.

Attach build.prop separate from log

For readability.

And most surprising, my one-off python script that I run overnight to check for interesting movies DID run and connect successfully last night! So the TiVo itself is definitely running and working correctly. Just connections from Android devices (all three tried) fail.

Run the official app and:

And 60 seconds later it shows a popup that says "the box is not responding". On three different devices tested, both my app and the official app. On one of those, the official app was not installed. It gave the network control prompt, but never asked for my MAK.

Images don't display (Virgin Media)

Images (films/actors etc) aren't being displayed on the Virgin Media Tivo (UK) - just default icons - everything else seems ok

Rotating the phone deletes a show

Conditions are not exactly clear, but some user reports claim that rotating the phone will cause a show to be deleted.

I was in the my shows section and noticed that rotating my phone causes whatever show is selected to be deleted.

and

When using the remote function in the my shows menu, it will delete the selected show if the phone is rotated sideways

My Shows: Display "new" badge

Perhaps?

Improve small remote icon image

Tilting it should make it fit better into the square-ish box it fits in?

Add the skip forward/backward buttons to Now Showing's mini-remote.

Upgrade JmDNS

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=28176629

Apparently the StringIndexOutOfBoundsException might be fixed in a newer (than 3.4.1, so nightly build) version.

Modifying season passes creates a second instead

Haven't figured out why yet, but picking modify season pass adds a second pass, with the new settings, rather than modifying the existing one.

Perhaps related to the conflict dialog?

Action Bar: remote opens my shows

When appropriate, show time/channel in Explore

"Clear" button registers twice

Some number of users have reported that pressing "clear" always registers twice, and deletes two shows as a result.

Search returns "Response missing content"

Get this response after selecting a program icon on the search page. Search works on the tivo. Other functions OK.

Discovery: Sometimes shows the same device twice

It's got to be a timing/race condition, because it's very transient. But sometimes the device discovery screen will show the same device twice, once OK and once with the warning icon. It should only show once, OK, if it is in fact an OK device.

Add info to show view

The show/explore view should display:

• Length of recording (and partial status).
• Badge and text about how the show will be kept.
• Full channel, date, and time of recording.

Upcoming long press: record

It would be useful in the "upcoming" view to schedule recording a particular episode with a long press, rather than the multiple taps it takes to open it and then record from there.

Use ActionBarSherlock

http://actionbarsherlock.com/

I'd like to use the Honeycomb/Ice Cream action bar style. This library (claims to) makes it relatively easy to do so while maintaining compatibility with older versions of Android.

Add long press options to the Upcoming screen

Refresh the Season Pass Manager when appropriate.

1. Navigate to Season Pass Manager.
2. Click on an entry.
3. Click Record...
4. Click Modify season pass
5. Complete the modification, press OK, wait for it to complete. Acknowledge conflicts if necessary and wait to complete again.
6. You're back at explore now, press back to return to season pass manager.

The subscription will still list the old state. Go back and to Season Pass Manager again (to make it load data again) and now it will list the new state. It should reload the moment you come back to it, if recordings were changed.
