Channel logo slice

I gave up with mine. :) Had no end of problem with wrong colours (particuarly red).

Does anyone know how to remove imported logos from the database as i added the set and had no errors during the import but they do not show up in the web interface to associate with the channels. They do apprear in the database as you can see them listed but i want to get rid of them and start again. ? :confused:

WARNING: Some rather dodgy stuff follows, so unless you are pretty keen on playing with the MFS database you may wish to skip this post.

Okay... if you mess something up you may need to do a rebuild... but you are able to remove objects from the database using:

Code:

---

dbobj $objectid markasrubbish

---

This should cause the item to be picked up by the rubbish collector and removed. There is another more direct approach which is what I use when I need to nuke something... you will need to set the "TV_ALLOW_UNLINK_DB_OBJ" environment variable to 1 in order to do this, but as an example, the following script will remove the object associated with the 178123 FSID:

Code:

---

#!/tvbin/tivosh
#
# Need to set TV_ALLOW_UNLINK_DB_OBJ to 1 before running this
#
set fsid 178123

RetryTransaction {
  set result [mfs deref $fsid]
  set result [mfs unlink /Recording/InProgress/$fsid]
}

excuse my noobieness :)

how do I load them?

This [see attached] is a small slice constructed from DeanM's logos. His png's were processed with the canadian tivo tools to create this slice.

It only contains the FTA logos at this stage, it should be enough to bootstrap tivoWeb into life.

[The remainder of the logos can be manually uploaded and associated from there until a full slice is constructed.]

Worked for me anyway... ;)

Back to project work... :(

I have my fill set of logos but have not been able to load them into Tivo. I have been told to try the upload logos option in the web interface but my web interface does not have this option. Have i missed something ? or do others not have this option in the web interface aswell.

load the logo slice first
http://loudas.com/logo-67.slice.gz

telnet to tivo
gunzip logo-67.slice.gz
dbload30 logo-67.slice
reboot tivo

then the logos will show up on tivoweb
