I have a download of it, i think it might be old, from march ish.
It runs just fine, works alright, but when irun a stream after the stream starts
i get a progress window pop up.
3 lines of

My programs
My programs
My programs

Yeah, I got the same problem here.

Also with 18-12-2005 T3CH-build and SimpleKML.py

For the script is very old, I assume maybe there are some changed function names or things like that.
I already tried looking at the code but I didn't find s.th. which is not much of a surprise cause I never ever looked at a python script before.

I read some FAQs and tutorials, though, but the script is qutie complicated so I couldn't figure it out.

It would be sooo nice, if someone with python skills could have a look at the script.
I think there are just minor changes to be made - for a pro surely feasible in a few minutes.

BTW - could someone fix the shortened station names if already looking at it?
Thanks.

It's happening with other scripts too, like MyTV for example. Previous XBMC builds work fine.

There is definatly a problem.

Solution

Remove the <visible ...> line from the top of DialogProgress.xml in your skin and see if that does the trick. It did for me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Remove this ---> <visible effect="fade" time="200" start="hidden">Window.IsActive(101)</visible>

Be warned. I have just tried this on XBMC.CVS.12.16.05. build and it worked. However, when I tried it on XBMC.CVS.01.01.06. build, it seemed to cause more problems with KML. It slowed right down and the diolog box was all over the place rather than centre screen.

So, looks like I will be sticking with XBMC.CVS.12.16.05. build with the "vis" line removed, until this can be sorted

Well, deleting the <visible ....> tag does not work. However, I changed the time from 200 to 50 and it seems to work!

<visible effect="fade" time="50" start="hidden">Window.IsActive(101)</visible>

artnada and helsten2, you guys rock!

decreasing the <visible time> to 50 does the trick!

SimpleKML works perfectly again - thanks to you.

I couldn't have imagined finding the solution in one of the skin files.
I thought the script itself would be flawed.

Although the decreased fade time is clearly noticeable - dialog windows are rather vanishing now than fading - a working SimpleKML script surely outweighs this twice as much.

So thank you very much for figuring this out.

I'm sure many other people will also appreciate this information.

the visible time = 50 worked for me too...or so I thought. It will let me back out of the first selection, but then if I go to play a different channel, it gives me the "my program" x3 box again. Is there any other solutions?

edit: seems that if i remove that <visible> line altogether fixes the problem. Yay!
