Misaligned Text 0.25-beta and Arclight

Hi,

I've noticed a few misaligned strings while looking at 0.25-beta. For
example http://db.tt/Iw3SEbvT

Most screens do not have a problem.

Is this likely to be a setup problem on my part or is there a problem
with a few of the screens?

Stephen

TTBOMK, there's nothing a user can do to their system (save uninstalling
a font that's required by the theme) to mess up theme alignment, now.

That said, I'd suspect you're still using an old copy of the theme and
that you need to update to the most current copy. Using the Theme
Chooser, make sure it's showing all/remote themes, and see if there's a
newer version of Arclight. You need to have a 25.x version of it.

What *should* the latest version number be for 0.25rc? I'm seeing
Arclight 1.1

The latest version I'm seeing on my 0.25 system is v25.11 in the theme chooser for Arclight - I use this on all frontends and I do not see the issue you describe.

I would recommend you focus on why you are not getting the latest version of this theme, as I believe this the real problem.

Hope this helps.

Joe

I see this in the backend log:

HouseKeeping housekeeper.cpp:787 (UpdateThemeChooserInfoCache) -
HouseKeeper: Error downloading
http://themes.mythtv.org/themes/repository/0.25/themes.zipremote themes
info package.

I suppose I'll have to remedy that. -A

Sounds like your build is messed up or you built from a branch other than
'master'. There is no 0.25 yet. Are you compiling from source?

I'm currently building from master, based off the original spec files
from Richard Shaw. My latest build setup is here:

http://messinet.com/rpms/browser/mythtv

I am also trying to work out the error:

MPEGRec(/dev/video1): StartEncoding failed eno: Inappropriate ioctl for
device (25)

I see my issue in housekeeper.cpp:

// FIXME: For now, treat git master the same as svn trunk
if (MythVersion == "master")
MythVersion = "trunk";

if (MythVersion != "trunk")
{
MythVersion = MYTH_BINARY_VERSION; // Example: 0.25.20101017-1
MythVersion.replace(QRegExp("\\.[0-9]{8,}.*"), "");
}

I'm pre-building for the upcoming 0.25 release (mostly for practice and
to test and work out potential issues).

I probably just need to set the MYTH_BINARY_VERSION properly, or wait
for the release for this part to be fixed.

Thanks. -A

Yeah, I'm trying to think of a way to have this work for all cases, but
haven't been able to come up with something yet. I can probably start
packaging the known compatible themes for 0.25 so that this will work
for users who fall into this situation. I'll see about doing that
tonight if possible.

I'm pretty certain that I'm on the 25.11 version. That is certainly
what is selected in the theme chooser. I've gone back and forth to a
couple of other themes and also tried delteing
~/.mythtv/themes/Arclight and ~/.mythtv/themecache/Arlicht.1920.1080
directories. On restarting the frontend after deleting them it came
up with the default theme until I selected Arclight from the
themechooser again.
