I concur with jldcon re: the error message (and I have a full year premium subscription).

I've upgraded (love the new look, btw) but I'm getting the same error - even though my /home/user/.mlb/config file correctly states my username and login.

I can't remember now but if I trash that file, will the 'configuration' menu actually work in this latest version? It seems that 'configuration' never works again after the initial addition of your login and password... .

Yup. Trashed the file, rebooted (just because) and the configuration dialogue box reappeared. Entered everything correctly. And I'm getting the same error message :::sigh:::.

I've gone back and trashed all the /home/user/.mlb/ files, relaunched, filled in the 'configuration' box again and... still get the same error.

I've completely forgotten which log you like to see to help you track down awful culprits. The 'outputlog.txt', the 'log' or the 'mlboutputlog.txt' in the /home/user/MyDocs .

Did I mention the layout is really nice, though :-)

EDIT: I've trashed the outputlog.txt file, relaunched, tried a game, got the usual login error message (though my login and password are correct), took a look at the outputlog.txt again and rather abruptly ends during the listing of all the games. I did a search for 'error' and got nothing. A previous attempt ended in 'err' at the very end of the .txt file.

Well. I'm completely stumped now.

MORE EDIT: you know, I was stumped a while ago because the replays from previous days were even choppy and pixilated. But now... clear as day! So it seems that as long as the game isn't *today*, I can watch a beautiful video :-)

This is so bizarre... .

Well dang... I just retested, and I get the same problem. I know that it worked for me last night right before I released... now it doesn't. I'm checking my log's to find out.

And jldcon, you're mention of your dell laptop reminds me: the easiest way to get around your n8x0's file system (or atleast the easiest that I've used) is to use openssh and winscp. openssh allows you to log in via a terminal (ssh) or over secure ftp (which is what winscp uses). In winscp you can browse all the directories as the root user, view/edit file contents, and upload/download files.

Hi,
I use mlbviewer on my desktop, love it!
On my N800 When I launch mlbviewer from the 'Extras" menu nothing happens.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

It seems to be working for me (I realized my previous issue was setting my user name to a@email.com) I'll update the package with the latest svn from mlbviewer tomorrow morning, hopefully that will fix the issue.

Mrbadboy's problem is due to an oversight on my part, I just redirect the standard output to a file, but the directory doesn't exist unless you've run the program at least once. (chicken, egg) so in the repackage I'm going to put a dummy log file to pre setup the /home/user/.mlb directory.

Good work, hvacengi! I have no troubles with the streaming and the new layout is much improved, thanks!

:::channeling whiney 4-year-old:::Why does Greeeeeeeyghooooooossst always get the working model?

What's so special about *him*??:::channeling whiney 4-year-old:::

LOL! My mama always said I 'fell into a tub of butter'...just lucky I guess!

Plus the L'Astros are cellar dwelling right now, so I got some blues, eh?

Ha! The Mariners just got two grand slams against Cleveland... in less than 6 innings.

Now let us see how they'll blow it :-P

It's the top of the 8th... they can't blow it. Can they? Um... naaaaaaaah.

OK, I've released updated packages again. I have the most recent SVN from the main package (python-mlbviewer 0.0.2-1) and a coresponding update to mlbviewer_gui. They changed a few things with team name handling, so I had to fix the way I label games. I also made nationally blacked out game buttons sensitive, since the audio is still valid, and added the game status code after the time (which is now 24hr EDST, I have to look into converting it back and varying the time with the offset setting).

I tested this two ways: first I updated my already working version. Next I unistalled all three components, deleted the /home/user/.mlb folder and /usr/lib/mlbviewer_gui folder, and then reinstalled each component.

Works for me without issues.

I'm starting to wonder if maybe you're original /usr/lib/mlbviewer_gui/MLBviewer folder did not get deleted with the upgrade to switch to python-mlbviewer as the backend - python searches first in the running program's root folder, and then the python site packages folder when loading modules, so if you had the old version it would load first. Check the contents of /usr/lib/mlbviewer_gui and see what folders you have there.

Oh, and I actually email greyghost extra packages to make sure that his version works, in exchange for keeping all the other colored ghosts from haunting me ;-)

The only way it worked for me was to uninstall everything and reinstall.

I tried trashing /usr/lib/mlbviewer_gui/MLBviewer but I just couldn't. Even after uninstalling everything. There was an 'MLBviewer' file in there. When I reinstalled everything, the file became 'OLDVMLBviewer' and the new components were added in the same /usr/lib/mlbviewer_gui/MLBviewer folder along with the renamed OLDMLBviewer one.

Just waiting for you to single-handedly upgrade and improve mPlayer.

BWAHAHAHAHAAHA.

Nah. I'm happy enough with just the audio and the potential with an eventual (I hope) mPlayer upgrade done by other people.

Many thanks again.
