I am having an issue with sge in CrossPlatform\sge030809-w32\sge-msvc\sge\VisualC library not compiling now. I have load VS2005 and get the same error, do i need to go back even further to VS2003 which is what the projects were created in.

Code: [Select]

I am building the libraries because i couldn't debug the windows orbiter after building it. It looked like one of the libraries required a version of  MSCV70d.dll. Anyway I have learnt a lot about building C++ apps.

Developers / Help with updating windows orbiter to VS2008

« on: October 16, 2009, 11:28:06 pm »

I have managed to get the orbiter to partly compile in VS2008 but am now getting the following error.

Code: [Select]

Compiling...
PlutoPhoneCommands.cpp
OrbiterApp.cpp
_CE_ACTIVEX was not defined because this Windows CE SDK does not have DCOM.
 _CE_ACTIVEX could be caused to be defined by defining _CE_ALLOW_SINGLE_THREADED_OBJECTS_IN_MTA, but it is recommended that this be done only for single-threaded apps.
_ATL_NO_HOSTING was defined because _CE_ACTIVEX was not defined.
c:\pluto\trunk\src\orbiter\cenet_smartphone\LRMenu.h(147) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '*'

I have also updated from STLport4.5.3 to STLport5.2.1

I am new to C++ and suspect that something with the STport upgrade requires a compiler flag to solve the issue.

If i can get this to finish compiling I believe i should be able to target the newer mobile platforms as well.

I have a requirement for a cablebox (foxtel IQ2) template as i have been unable to get any buttons except 'info' working with the LiveTV or DVD remote on the template i have created.

Installation issues / Re: BskyB 3000 template

« on: September 09, 2009, 08:17:58 am »

I have also been frustrated in making a template for the Australian Foxtel IQ2 pace STB. I have successfully learn't all of the IR codes and tested them both in the device template and from an MD going into advanced.

The issue I am having is that none of the buttons will control the  box except for the info button. ( have tried a LiveTV and DVD device). The strange thing is the volume controls do contol the amplifier as expected and my projector turns on.

I am not connecting the STB to my Core as a capture device, but still want it as a device to control. (specially because it is located in another room). Will happily submit the templates back once i get it all working so any pointers on how to get the IR codes to map to the buttons would be appreciated.

Hi Thom,

I have downloaded all the reuired packages as per your list. I had to 2 more steps
   * add  libDCECommon.so.
add root@IP-ADDR-OF-ORBITER to mysql. ( Can this be configured )

I was not prompted for anything when i ran orbiter for the first time and had a screen that was strange, and system locked up.
After re-booting i now get the following message.

GenericHIDInterface::UpdateEventDevices() - End <0xb3654b90>
Segmentation Fault

There are also a couple of errors higher up.
Invalid type of WM_CLIENT_MACHINE_PROPERTY property
Invalid type of _NET_WM_PID property.

Not sure how to go from here.

You are not going to get any support if the Core doesn't meet the minimum requirement of 2 NIC's. Wireless does not meet that requirement.

Hi Thom,

I will give it a go , but won't have much time to allocate to doing it untill late september as i have some projects going on at work at the moment.
I am also assuming that by implementing  it you would like LMCE to be the gateway and not to remove the 2 NIC requirement.

LMCE has a requirement for it to be the "gateway" , which in my opinion is not the primary function of the home entertainment/automation server. The fact that it is requires 2 NIC's it complicates getting new people starting out with LMCE. If it is going to be the firewall then it needs to be more  configurable than it currently is. 

We don't need to be discussing what the reasoning for implementing a good firewall is, I just want something that is configurable. LMCE needs to improve it's firewall , or take a step back and remove the requirement for it to be the gateway.

Can you please post your shorewall config files as they should work for any LMCE system and I would like to implement it.

« on: August 19, 2009, 05:56:04 pm »

Thanks for the help. It was pretty straight forward to add the new resolution to the size table and i now have an orbiter the fills the screen properly.
I think that this should be a standard screen size as there are a lot of net-tops/netbooks with this resolution.(1024 x 600 and not 1200 x 600) as i originally stated.

I know that asus have just release a tablet version for under $1000 in Australia, and that is also 1024 x 600.

As to the Linux orbiter I will attempt that over the next few weeks as It will work for the Acer as well as my desktop. Would much prefer the Acer to run ubuntu and obiter than windows and orbiter and it already dual boots.

« on: August 18, 2009, 12:46:23 pm »

I have an Acer aspire one which i am using as an orbiter and would like to have it running full screen (1200 x 600). None of the available sizes seem to fit well. Is there a way that I can get it full screen.

I also use a fedora PC as my computer and would like to have an Orbiter running on it.( instead of inside a windows XP virtual PC). Is there a native linux Orbiter.

On the global cache website they have a GC100 - CCF converter program. I was using it before I worked out why my USBUIRT wan't learning correctly in LMCE.

I have just done the update on 2 of my MD's and was unable to boot either one afterwards.

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Both froze at PVR250... something, dont remember exactly what.

Now i am unable to add an MD.

Code:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
