Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Issue is fixed, had to do with the daylight savings not being considered for UK.
Im waiting for the repos to be fixed, seems like its down and not building any packages at the moment. :(.
You should recieve the update sometime today if they fix the autobuilder .

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Thanks mate, appreciate the quick fix!!!

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

New version 1.2-5 uploaded to the repository.

Fixed an issue with UK channels being 1 hour behind as the data source does not account for daylight saving.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

I thought a translation for the menu.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

sure I'm happy to translate this app to any language you like.
I had translated my other app buddy to many languages and trust me it was a nightmare to use google translate to translate each phrase into many languages.

I'd appreciate if I can atleast get some help in the english-->"your language" translation. I will do the neccessary code changes then and repackage.
If anyone is up for it let me know and I can send across a file with english phrases and you can translate them for me in your language.

thanks

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

If you give me the .po-file I could do the English=>Swedish translation.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Hi krk969! I like showtime very much but I'm missing some german channels like 'phoenix' and 'n24'. I'm not very familiar with xmltv and so I searched and found the xmltv.info site including an xml file which includes the tv stations in question.

May I ask you to include the missing german tv stations in showtime from this xml file?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Hi krk969,

I'd be very happy to translate your nice app for you in italian. Please feel free to send me every file you want, I'll translate it.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Hi Jehan,

this is the source Im using for germany => http://www.xmltvepg.be/rytecxmltvskyde.gz
can you compare the source you have provided me with this and see which one is better for germany.
Other users from germany also please take a look if you can.

currently showtime can support only 1 source, its a bit more complicated to support multiple at the moment and I will enhance it in the future.

I'll wait to hear.
thanks.

@Strutten/Torpedo , thanks guys for offering to help, I'll send you an xml file that will contain english phrases in <source> field and you need to fill the language translation in the <target> field,
I'll explain it properly in an email or PM to you, any questions feel free to msg/mail me.

cheers

Language Translations for Showtime
 

Hi Dr.MZ, torpedo48 , Strutten, g0dzilla,

Attached are the files for translation to German, Italian, Swedish and Russian.
the file format is qph but its a simple xml file with each phrase in this format. You can open this in any editor, Notepad++ is good but you can use any.

if you need any clarifications feel free to get in touch.
Also if you wish to use QT linguist tool to learn something new, I will be happy to help.

@Strutten, I have also included the .po file for swedish, if you prefer that.

thanks everybody for helping to translate.
Once all are done, I can make the neccessary changes and repackage Showtime, would prefer to do it all at once if possible, so you can post here when done so the rest know.

P.S . if there is anybody who could help with any other language translations , please let me know.

cheers

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Btw, Showtime is now available in the maemo.org appstore in Extras.

http://maemo.org/downloads/product/Maemo5/Showtime/

Many thanks to all who helped test Showtime and vote it up.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

It seems that the list is working ;) Even travelapp is getting more votes every day!

I've just downloaded the qph file, I'm starting the translation right now. Just one doubt: do you want me to write the translation all in capital letters (of course when the source is in capital letters)?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

yes definitely Torpedo48 , your list was most helpul.
Many apps sometimes just lie there since its not known they exist.
Thanks to your list in the signature ;)

You can send me the translation how you would like to see ;)

One thing for everybody while translating, Im aware that some phrases in english may have very long translation in another language.
Please try to keep the size same more or less otherwise alignments might go a bit bad and the app will look slightly wierd :)
Its not a hard rule, but something to be aware.

cheers

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Another doubt: what's the "search title window" phrase? I can't properly understand it, so I can't translate it... Where does this phrase appear?

And: what's this? &amp;REGION

Should I translate only the REGION, leaving the &amp; ?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

You could use google translate to do it, thats what I had done.

yep you can add '&' before the translation of REGION.
That shouldnt have got there in the first place actually :(

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Hope I've done it well, I've checked it many times and the only doubts are about the &amp; thing; maybe I've used a bad text editor...

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

This is the Swedish file. For some reason I got a msgfmt-error. If I need to change anything, please let me know.

The words Yes and No did not exist as separat objects, but were mentioned in the text. I translated them in the text, but maybe there are som buttons that need the translation aswell?

Yes is Ja and No is Nej.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Where the term is used?

Early Download Warning!


In the time settings, there are a term with which I can not handle. Or rather they are meant.

Past Listings

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

From the menu when you click "Clear Cache", this is shown if the data was downloaded just a couple of days back.

You could translate with google translate also and try ( even for the above "Easrly Download Warning".
It means channel listings from the past.( before the current time ).

hope that helps.
thanks.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

I hope it's good, but please check back over it because I was not sure whether I should "&amp" with in the target area.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

looks good Dr.MZ. The &amp you left it as it is so its good.

Thanks Torpedo48, Strutten, Dr.MZ seems like I have 3 languages now, I think I will release a new version with these translations, unless some other language translations are also needed .

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Hi Strutten, all seems good. Will keep the YES and NO in mind for the translation. which buttons did you mean exactly ?
All button text were also included in the .po file, but Ill have a look again.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

I'm talking about the string that says: "If you still wish to proceed click YES else click NO to use available data". There where, however, no other string, in which I could translate Yes and No.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Oh well, I think I get what you mean now.
That message is a warning Showtime displays and the YES/NO buttons are provided by QT framework automatically which will get translated also automatically by the locale setting on your phone , so thats why you didnt find a user defined string for YES and NO buttons.
hope that makes it clear.

thanks.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Perfectly clear! So, a note to everyone else translating Showtime- Translate yes and no in that string!

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

I've made a correction, please use this file instead of the previous one.

If you have already modified/used the previous, and can't use the new one, can you modify this translation:

"Avviso Download Precoce !"

in

"Avviso Download Recente !"

please? I misunderstood the meaning, so I translated it bad. The first string sounds a bit ridiculous... ;)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

done ;)
thanks

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Yes ... Ja
No ... Nein

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Hi, I'm interested in the Sky remote functionality but can't find it mentioned in the user guide, do I need to configure something so that it knows which sky box is mine to send the remot record to?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

all you need to do is goto sky.com register yourself there with your mobile number.

then select programme(s) in showtime and hit the record button.
This will open up the sms window with the message to send, hit send and a message will be sent to your digital reciever by sky since you have your mobile number registered with them.

hope that helps, let me know if you face issues.
This as mentioned before is available for UK and Ireland, if other countries support this feature you could let me know to add it.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Thanks for the help, good work on making this available, I will test and confirm that it works ok

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

I tried it with BBC for this afternoon's world cup game and it was successful, I just rung the missus and she confirmed that it had made its way into the planner fine, Thanks for the help, will be even better when you don't have to move between apps to send the SMS.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

thanks for letting me know.
Well I did think of using some telepathy based libraries to send the sms automatically, TpSession does it, but I didnt have enough time to integrate and test it , showtime works well for now and does whats needed, I agree perhaps it would be a good value addition and if I find some free time will try adding this.
Now that we have QT mobility also coming up soon so QT apps can make use of phone functions but again its still beta and Ive already faced my share of troubles using beta stuff with QT. :)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Hi ,
I cannot refresh my program anymore and only getting "Have you clicked on go already.If yes then no data available for this channel!..."
Had no issues before and already tried to clear the cache and reeinstall the program.
Any tips what the problem could be ?
Thx in advance.

//edi: just tested some other regions and they were working fine. Just Germany is not working properly :/

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Hi NokiaRocks,
just checked the source for germany, seems like their data is updated only until 22June, perhaps they are updating today or some temporary issue for data generation from 23June.
http://www.xmltvepg.be/rytecxmltvskyde.gz
(If you see the dates in showtime only 22June shows green the rest are in red.)

A good news is that Ive seen some newer channels added to germany and some new countries like Swiss, Austria etc....
I will update showtime with the new information as well.

Sorry Strutten/Torpedo48/Dr.MZ , I know there is the translation still pending with me.
Ive moved to a new computer so had to set up everything again, also the italian and german translation files crashed in QT linguist application, the files you sent me looked fine to me so I was investigating that also.

I will be doing all this in the next few days, sorry again for the delay.

-krk969

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

update : the data for germany is generated and available now.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

I want to start by saying thankyou. I used the tv app on my iphone a lot and this is so much better. I had problems with itv channels on early versions but this got sorted. Then the times were an hour behind and that got sorted.

If I had a complaint it would be not loading from the cache on start-up. This would save about 2 seconds a day, which is'nt even as long as the iphone app took to start up.

Still can't believe this is from one person. Love it and thanks for your work. Downloaded the time problem update from extras-devel. Do we have to vote again or will it be sent to extras automatically.

Thanks again.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Thanks a lot for the kind words Ralphred. Appreciate it.
yes every new version needs to be voted unfortunately to put it to extras.

btw, if I understood you right, showtime does read from the cache, it only downloads when the data you have is much older than dates in the current week. You can manually clear the cache as well, in case you want current data in case its updated.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

thanks for that. I'll vote for it. but what i meant was it doesnt load from the cache on starting the app, i have to select favourites and the hit go. i'm slightly embarased about how petty this sounds and wouldn't give a f**k if it was never sorted it's still ace. i'll vote now if i can figure out how to. thanks. Jo

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 

Sorry but I can't figure out how to vote. Think it has to go to testing first. Not really sure what I'm doing. you should set up a paypal fee for it. I'd happily pay for it and I'm sure other would to.
