Allow the user to select multiple items and adjust the play and download actions accordingly, i.e. always play the current item and download all selected items.

The distribution-via-torrent branch sounds intriguing. Is this still being developed?
May help against the nonsense "depublication".

Hi, since a few days QMediathekView coredumps and I get the below output. It happens both on my main Arch Linux box and on an older Ubuntu machine, both running a build from git. Might this be a bad entree in the mediathek database? It always happens when QMediathekView tries to update its db, but I'm not sure if that's the case.

When I noticed chrono-0.4.22 I patched the Cargo.toml to try chrono-0.4.23 but that didn't change anything. If I can provide any more info feel free to suggest what you might need. Now that my favo app for searching/watching German TV shows is broken I resorted to installing mediathekview's AppImage and that works fine with, I assume, the same mediathek database.

Best wishes for 2023!

Please make it easy to copy the download link URL, e.g., by clicking a "Copy download link(s)" button and selecting the size.

It should be possible to copy multiple download links for more than one episode at once, by selecting multiple ones:

It might be a silly question, but what is your oppinion about a windows build?

Is it already possible or would it require much work?

Hi, I've been using QMediathekView for a while and build from git master all the time. Generally I'm loving all the recently introduced changes/migrations (thanks for those), but I have noticed the default column widths are a bit sub-optimal for me. Looking at the code, it is the Topic column that basically decides the layout:

m_tableView->horizontalHeader()->setSectionResizeMode(QHeaderView::ResizeToContents);
m_tableView->horizontalHeader()->setSectionResizeMode(2, QHeaderView::Stretch);

For most channels this looks great, less so for HR and ZDF (my preferred channel), which have rather wide Topic items, making the Title less readable. I've tried to rectify this by setting ResizeMode to Interactive (user resizable) and dropping the Stretch on the second (Topic) column:

m_tableView->horizontalHeader()->setSectionResizeMode(QHeaderView::Interactive);

This works out better for me, but I'm having trouble integrating save/restore functionality for the QHeaderView state. I'm not suggesting to change the defaults, just asking for some pointers on how to achieve the latter, if at all possible.

Regards

Hi, on Arch Linux I'm using the AUR package qmediathekview-git and am getting segfaults. I cannot exactly state when this started to show, it's been a while since I used the app.

Maybe I'm too stupid to understand the app -- however, here's my problem: I played only 2 minutes with it and already love it... but I accidentally closed (or minimized) the "search" panel, and now I don't find a way to get it back.

Update. I should have added this, maybe: I'm using the AppImage release. Maybe there is something missing -- because I cannot identify any menu giving me access to some "prefererence" settings.

Instead of defaulting to VLC which may or may not be installed on the system, default to the system's default media player which can be queried like this:

me@host:~$ xdg-mime query default video/mp4
parole.desktop

On Xubuntu bionic:

• Used to work e.g., in QMediathekView-4943468-x86_64.AppImage
• Does not work in QMediathekView-45aea73-x86_64.AppImage anymore

Also, 45aea73 shows errors on the command line that 4943468 did not.

Has something changed in how the binary is compiled and packaged?

Hi, I wonder if it's possible to enhance QMediathekView with a routine to update the mediathekview database(s)[0][1] via traditional cron job and/or systemd timer.

Add a setting so that the user can configure an external program to download streams instead of using the built-in Qt-based download support.

A first implementation could bypass the download dialog and call the configured command using the preferred URL. A more complete variant would have a separate UI to choose only the URL kind, e.g. default, small or large, and start the external program, maybe as a streamlined dialog, or using a pop-up menu on the download button itself.

Hi, I wonder if it's possible to add a feature. I miss having the opportunity to sort columns (ascending/descending). It would make this feature-complete for me. Nothing urgent though, QMediathekView is working fine.

Enjoy the holiday season, regards.

An option to mark specific videos as favorites and having access to them in a favorite list, would be very nice.

In addition, a way to search the list would be perfect.

While you can of course search for "livestream" in the Topic search field, it would be very convenient to have a button to show all available livestreams.

Building with the newest commit is failing with the following error:
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/libzstd.so.1: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line

I use the following AUR package on Manjaro:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qmediathekview-git

Build commands are:
qmake-qt5
make

Currently, playing a stream will always use the preferred URL. Add a simple UI extension that allows the user to choose which URL kind should be played, e.g. a pop-up menu on the play button showing the available options with the default action corresponding to the preferred URL.

For example I searched for the new ZDF series: "Das Quartett"

Regular MediathekView shows it, but QMediathekView doesn't.
