TV-Browser-Forum

Hi and sorry for all the questions:

I am trying the "Add Entry" button on the "I don't want to see" plug-in.
I click the button, a new "DUMMY ENTRY" appears (with the "invalid color")
I enter a complete title (or a partial title for that matter), case sensitive selected.
Then I click "apply". The item disappears from the "Search text" list and it does not "hide" the intended programs.
What am I missing?
(Selecting the plug-in drectly from the contextual menu of a program does work well.)
I searched the forums and the wiki but did not find any help. I even tried to search the German forums with Google translation, to no avail.


I don't want to be a pain for you, but I cannot find answers elsewhere and I don't speak German

For me it works just fine. When I add an entry and change the title and click Apply the new entry is in the list (alphabetical sorted).

Thanks for the response ds10.
I should have stated that I am using TV-B on a Mac and Snow Leopard.
Are you on the same OS?

No, I'm not. What Java version do you use?

Java version 1.6.0_17

OK. New info.

Seems like a strange bug, hopefully a one-time bug. I restarted and tried again and now it is working and accepting all entries. (I tried restarting before with no success).

So now a new question: The reason I tried my own entries is because I wanted to "hide" some programs by searching a partial title. I don't want to see any instance of the "HBO First Look" series. Since they begin with the name of the movie (like for example: "Avatar: HBO First Look") I don't want to select each and every instance of the differente movies highlighted in the series.

This is not working for me. I tried to hide a complete title, and entered "Eagle Eye"; this worked immediately. But "HBO First Look" is not working for me.

Am I missing anything or is there a trick or process that would help me accomplish this?

Never mind.

Just discovered that I can use "*: HBO First Look" and that will do what I need.

The power of TV-Browser is amazing!

You can even enable the sub menu function of the "I don't want to see" plugin, to get the function to alter the title entries from the context menu (TV-Browser->Settings->Plugins->I don't want to see, Context menu). Once you've changed that setting you will have I don't want to see->User entered value in the context menu of a program.

Thanks! I tried that alternative when things were not working, I will give it another try.
