First of all, it displays audiotrack type and language.       1.jpg   145.84KB   3 downloads

Would you like these changes to be applied ?

[WanWizard]

I leave that to people that actually use this information. Personally I only visit that screen if I need the service ref...

@jpuigs

Even if openpli did not applied...post here your source.

We will use it in our environment build patches ...

 

Thank you

[foxbob]

If you can source.

it looks like a very long list... when for the basic do not see
any big change it is fine...

The Basic view is the one which appears by default. The extended list only appears (if available = more than 1 audiotrack or any subtitle track) when pressing yellow button.

The basic view has only one change, audio PID gets codec info and language (if available).

 

Do you want me to commit on github ?

 

Apart from this ServiceInfo file, PLi skins have to be slighly modified to include this : scrollbarMode="showOnDemand"  on serviceinfosimple screen, to enable scroolbar viewing if list gets long on extended view.

[littlesat]

But from the other side the extra audio and subtitles are also viewable via the audio/subtitle or yellow button and then also selectable... So what is the real added value???

[jpuigs]

Audio/yellow button doesn't show Audio PIDs.

 

If a channel has 3 audio tracks, and you want to know APIDs, you have to change three times audiotrack and check info.

Using this mod, you can get it in a one simple screen.

[littlesat]

You also can add the pid in the audiolist... I think a smaller change with a bit more added value...
The service info screen was intended to show the current situation.

I do like it. Why does the list need to be short? I don't see the need for it to be called with another colour key. Most people aren't using this screen anyway, because they don't understand it anyway.

[littlesat]

Sounds like someone needs also to add a scrollbar there with scrollbar functionality as the list is no static and will be dynamic and could also get too long to put on one screen.... At this moment the design is give the current situation... Not give additional possible selectable information...

 

It is 'more' than just add thinks....

 

But when you see above the scrollbar is there so it sounds like the patch is OK... and having it behind a yellow toggle button to select less or more is also fine for me.

 

Now we 'just' need to evaluate of the merge request will be ©lean...

I also prefer this type of technical info to be in the same screen, instead of scattered all over, just because other screens show "related" data. 

[Robinson]

In my opinion, quite useful.

Thank you.

[jpuigs]

Cleaning code...

 

when it's ready we'll apply.

[mirakels]

I like it too!

Good to see all related info together including some human readable info. Very nice.

 

(if the fact that part of the info is also visible in audio/subtitle menus would count, then the same would apply to for instance the program info on infobar and the in the EPG...)

[jpuigs]

The code has been merged today.

Thanks to littlesat to help me to optimize it.

[ims]

Thx.

One note - language codes could be displayed as lowercase,imho - same as are broadcasted (iso693)

[Erik Slagter]

Yes, no unnecessary capitalisation (sp?) please.

[jpuigs]

I did in capitals, because audio Codec is in capitals too, to have them equal.
