TopField GUI - 7700 HDPVR Application for Web Configuration

[flemlion]

As I am not that big a fan of Internet Explorer only, or even Windows only applications, I've developed a little tool that enables you to use the Topfield 7700HDPVR web functionality from a java application.
That means you use it on pretty much any platform and even without any browser.

On top of that you can select a list of recordings and download all of the related files automatically with just two mouse-clicks (because I added a confirmation dialog).


For those interested it is available from http://www.flemlion.net/topfield/.


It does require you to install java 6 (see http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp), but that should be it.
The installer should create shortcuts on Windows and Linux (when the proper desktop is available). Unfortunately IzPack does not enable this for MacOS yet, so there you'll have to follow the instructions to do it yourself.

And if you do use it, feedback is welcome, so I know which 'feature' I should look at first for any next version.

Hi Flemlion

I tried to install TopField GUI on MAC OS 10 with Java (build 1.6.0_07-b06-57, mixed mode).

I wasn't very successfull. After running your install.jar 0.7 I have found your libraries here
/Users/rene/Applications/lib

-rw-r-xr-- 1 root staff 391834 4 Mär 2008 log4j-1.2.15.jar

Executing FlemLion-TopField.jar does not show any GUI. In the tasklist I can see that a task called
org.flemlion.gui.topfield.main is running.

Silly question: how do I start this application?


Executing command as noted in your readme creates lots of errors (see bottom)

java -cp lib/log4j-1.2.15.jar;lib/jcalendar-1.3.2.jar;lib/FlemLion-TopField.jar org.flemlion.gui.topfield.Main

Any hint is appreciated.

Cheers papago1

I'm not sure if papago1 got it working on MacOS, but the error indicates that the ; in the shortcut should be replaced with :
For example:

java -cp lib/log4j-1.2.15.jar:lib/jcalendar-1.3.2.jar:lib/FlemLion-TopField.jar org.flemlion.gui.topfield.Main
