Webif icons explained

[Brian]

I didn't say anything was unclear, perhaps it would be clearer to everybody if it simply said "File is encrypted".

The problem is that the ENC icon doesn't mean that. It's about the file being decrypt-protected - more like a "must remain encrypted" thing.
The lack of a DEC icon means that the file is encrypted.
I agree that the on copy isn't right though.

In that case I don't understand the relevance of your post 19, unless you don't care for a process of peer-review and refinement.

Auto-expire?

Thanks - I've added that and a few more that were missing and restructured the Media Browser section.

This is very confusing to the uninitiated. Perhaps the icons should be DEC, ENC and PROT. rather than DEC, nothing and ENC?

Perhaps, but the ENC icon is used by the on-TV interface for protected so the web interface uses the same logic for consistency.

 

[Black Hole]

We've had this discussion before, and Enc is the standard interface icon carried forward into the custom interface. We could (possibly) change the standard icon as well, but the net benefit is diminishing. Once you know what it really means, the previous outcome was to live with it.

What does the green circle with an underscore on a folder icon mean please? I have looked through the wiki but can't find it, sorry if I missed it. Nor can I see anything special about the file in the folder. Ta.

 

[af123]

It means that there's a child folder in there that starts with an underscore, usually something like _duplicates or _original. It's just a hint to indicate that something might need a bit of cleaning up.

Useful info. Please can this be added to - https://wiki.hummy.tv/wiki/Icons (to Media Browser - Folders)

Done

Done

Many thanks for that.
Have also found the symbol will appear for any file that is not visible on Webif, let alone the TV screen interface. Could be the result of a corruption in isolation.
You can login to the cli prompt
(via Telnet menu) and check if there are any bogus files in the folder in question that are prefixed with an underscore.

In WebIf the AR symbol in the schedule had what looked like falling coloured snow over it.

Can someone please explain what this means - it is not in the Wiki.

 

[af123]

This means that the box is actively watching for the start signal for this scheduled item.

 

[Black Hole]

Neat. I don't spend much time looking at the WebIF, so I've never seen this.

It's in the Wiki Page now
