xJumpTo - jump to a specific category entry

xJumpTo


This lets you find a specific item in a catergory, either by specifing a text string or passing in a variable name. I have not coded it but it could be easily be extened to find a given index or a page if needed.

Functions are -

Search catergory for a "field" equal to "text". This is case sensitive.

Hi,

I used .net C#, its a free download from microsoft - http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/

You can also write them using the vb version.

Sean,

Will this work on EPG or could you make it work on EPG database ?

This will be really helpful to be used with XLTV plugin. Currently, when you switch the channel and call in EPG it does not jump to the tuned channel. You have to manually scroll. Maybe, I can use this plugin to automatically jump to a given channel.

[S Pittaway]

it should work on any catergory

its a really dumm bit of code, all is does is call catergory>next untill it finds a feild matching the text passed in...

i use a nebula tv card so i have never played with the epg stuff so i dont know how its stored.

Ok this is getting damn weird....

I cant get XjumpTo to appear on plugins list in xlobby... i dont get what im doing wrong... this is exactly same behavior i experienced with my own test plugins...

i just copy dll files to plugins directory... but they dont appear in xlobby...
before that has worked just fine... i simply dont get this

[P3rv3rt B3ar]

I realised my problem now... it was the fact i never updated my xlobby2.exe... im just wondering how many of problems i have had, has been just cause ive been running old version.
