Hi! No, this is not possible! Try to find and download the program "dvbvspy.exe" and click on "GetTags", then you will see all global variables that are available by default on specific OSD pages. Other information is available only in the page where they are intended to be displayed. E.g. in "mysysinfo.xml" the progress control with the ID 52 and and a label with the ID 51 will be filled with the information you need. On other pages different control IDs may be filled with different information. This depends on the context of the page.

Some time ago I wrote a small plugin, it exports such variables:

# Miniepgvars.SignalStrength - signal level (updated every 1 sec);

# Miniepgvars.SignalQuality - quality (updated every 1 sec);

# Miniepgvars.HDlogo - possible values: HD_1080p_Video.png, HD_1080i_Video.png, HD_720p_Video.png;

# Miniepgvars.Channel_Root ;

# Miniepgvars.Channel_Category;

# Miniepgvars.Sat_Position - position of the satellite;

# Miniepgvars.Transponder.Frequency, # Miniepgvars.Transponder.Polarity, # Miniepgvars.Transponder.Smbolrate - frequency, polarization, symbol rate of the current transponder;

 

Limitations:

# Miniepgvars.SignalStrength, # Miniepgvars.SignalQuality obtained for the first found hardware (DVB File Device, PTV Network Device, Unicast Network Device, Multicast Network Device excluded, when installed more than two cards may not correctly receive data. Unfortunately I do not know other way).

 

I understand that this is not the most elegant way but it works o:)

Hello evgen_ln,

 

and why did you hide this gem for so long ? B)

 

Do you want to release the sources ? Public or by PM.

Hello evgen_ln,

 

is it correct, that you plugin blocks the DVBViewerServer for other applications?

 

Can you correct or fixe that?

 

I try to run a command-line skript wich try to read things from the DVBViewerServer.

 

Thanks.
