DigiTV Shared Memory Data
|
From DigiTV application v3.509 support has been included for additional shared memory data transfer to an external application.
To access this data from your application you should declare a structure identical to the one below (the following code is in the C programming language):
|
// ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// ---- shared_mem - DigiTV v3.7.00
typedef struct
{
int Channel_No; // Currently tuned channel number
int State; // DigiTV State
char Channel_Name [256]; // Current channel name
char Now_Name [256]; // Current Programme name
char Nxt_Name [256]; // Next Programme name
char Now_Desc [512]; // Current Programme description
char Nxt_Desc [512]; // Next Programme description
SYSTEMTIME Now_Start; // Current Programme start time
SYSTEMTIME Nxt_Start; // Next Programme start time
SYSTEMTIME Now_Length; // Current Programme Length
SYSTEMTIME Nxt_Length; // Next Programme Length
bool Is_Tuning; // True if DigiTV is currently auto-tuning
bool Flag_16_9; // True if DigiTV is currently displaying in 16:9 format
bool Signal_Locked; // True if a Digital station is tuned
bool Encrypted; // True if the digital station content is encrypted
bool Muted; // True if the audio is muted
bool No_Video_Audio; // True if there is no Video and no Audio stream present
bool In_Systray; // True if the DigiTV application is residing in the system tray
char Instance_Desc [256]; // Text describing the current instance's activity
} shared_mem;
|
|
The 'State' variable describes the current running state of DigiTV and can take any of the following values:
|
// ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// ---- Current viewing states
#define ACTN_PAUSED 1 // Playback or Live TV paused
#define ACTN_STOPPED 2 // Normal Live viewing
#define ACTN_PLAYING 3 // Play
#define ACTN_RMTPLAY 4 // Play (from remote)
#define ACTN_RECORDING 5 // OTR Recording
#define ACTN_RW 6 // Rewind
#define ACTN_FB 7 // Fast Back
#define ACTN_SB 8 // Slow Back
#define ACTN_SF 9 // Slow Forward
#define ACTN_SS 10 // Single Step
#define ACTN_FF 11 // Fast Forward
#define ACTN_TIMER_REC 12 // Timer-based recording
#define ACTN_REC_PAUSED 13 // Pause OTR Recording
#define ACTN_TMR_PAUSED 14 // Pause Timer Recording
|
Then you can open up the Shared memory (named "DigiTV_Data") using the code below to gain read access to the data in the structure within, eg:
