Config

[Craig]

Hey guys.

I pass the instance of my config class through to the plugin loader
(Basically the line thats there when you open a fresh template), How
do I then get a reference to it in the mcml? I see there a property
called 'ThemeConfig' being passed around on the default theme. But
when I try the same thing I get errors saying that the ThemeConfig
object is null when I use it.

thanks all.
Craig

Have you tried:

<

app:Config Name="ThemeConfig" />

where app is a reference to your plugin assembly.

 

 

 

On a totally unrelated note, I'm having one of those moments, how the heck does studio images work? I swear I've put everything in the right place. Actors are loading fine, just no studios whatsoever.

Thanks, I'll give that a try.

This is what my studio images look like.

<Binding Target="[StudioRepeater.Source]"
Source="[Folder.SelectedChild.StudioItems]"></Binding>

<Repeater Name="StudioRepeater"
Source="[Folder.SelectedChild.StudioItems]">
<Layout>
<FlowLayout Orientation="Horizontal"
ItemAlignment="Center" Spacing="0,0"/>
</Layout>
<Content>
<vs:Studio
StudioItem="[RepeatedItem!lib:StudioItemWrapper]" Name="StudioLogo"/>
</Content>
</Repeater>

I found a solution to my problem... very simple .. blow up the image cache and let MB repopulate it. I don't like it but ... it works :(

[justin thomas]

as in MediaBrowser.BlowUp();   ?

[Jas Manghera]

As in SHIFT-DEL:  Are you sure you sure you wish to delete media browser cache

 

 

YES!!!!! I AM %#$@^$ SURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111

[Craig Thomas]

Ok, I still cant get this thing to work... :(

I have tried cor:Object even and it keep retruning null. As a test I
tried just setting a labels content to ThemeConfig.ToString but it
always just says ThemeConfic is null

Here is a bit more context:

 

<

UI Name="Something">

<

Properties>
   <a:Application Name="Application" Application="$Required"/>
   <app:Config Name="ThemeConfig" />

</

Properties>

<

Rules>

<Binding Source="[SourceText]" Target="[TargetText]" >
   <Conditions>
       <Equality Source="[ThemeConfig.InfoOption]" ConditionOp="Equals" Value="true" />
   </Conditions>
</Binding>

</Rules>
.

.

Thats what I tried, but it still said ThemeConfig is null.

To which pages does mediabrowser pass the instance?

Page, moviedetails and your config panel?

You don't have a "$Required" on it, right? If you do, it will be null.

This whole thing doesn't work exactly like I think it should. I don't know
if it's a bug or a design deficiency or what but I can't get it to pass the
actual object reference around properly. So, if you just declare it as a
local or declare it as a non-required property, you should get a fresh
instance of your config object. This should work in most instances but,
sometimes, changes to the options won't be seen until you re-start MB.

Cool, thanks for the info.

Still doesn't work. I have implemented another system for the settings,
so at least I can continue till I have time to figure out whats up.
