v2.3 - 03/12/2014

* Updated installer with many changes including:

  - New style

  - Top left dropdown Menu to select screens

  - Admin Screen to provide additional directory rather

    than having to do this on startup

  - Able to exit the installer from the web interface

  - About Screen

  - View of installation process as TV communicates

    issues experienced by user.

    Needs files creating in c:\temp\e2logs as follows:

E2Stream Update

Posted on2 Comments

I’m still working on the next release of E2Stream – likely to be v1.5
This has had a few massive changes in to:

  1. Finally fix the 4:3 issue that’s plagued the SD channels
  2. Work with picons using service name (new functionality in e2) or service id
  3. Introduce a new full screen mode to change channels/etc
  4. Allow playback of recordings

One offshoot of this – the changing between a windowed player and a full screen player really causes problems on certain TVs that I can’t recreate on the emulator or other TVs, therefore I’m almost certainly likely to abandon the ‘window’ player as it doesn’t add too much and gives more real estate on the screen.

The full screen mode allows you to use channel up/down to change the channels, but you can always revert back to the bouquet list to select still.

Due to the volume of changes theres still quite a lot of testing to do and some small bugs to iron out so the release of this will be a few days off yet.

The following screenshot shows the full screen mode (that is really full screen on SD channels!)
