mythtvosd doesn't update the OSD

[Doug Haber <doug@…>]

I think this may be since the new OSD merge but I didn't notice it until today. I'm trying lines like:

mythtvosd --template=cid --verbose --caller_name="doug"
Thanks!

After doing a little research I found that the following code is commented out about line 11931 in tv_play.cpp:

/*
    if (osd && set)
        osd->StartNotify(set);
    else if (osd && !name.isEmpty())
        osd->ClearNotify(name);
*/

This seems to explain why the Notify doesn't show up on the OSD. StartNotify & ClearNotify are not implemented in osd.cpp any more (presumably because the OSD code was totally re-written).

Hope this helps!

Same problem when updating from 0.23 to 0.24. I no longer get any kind of reaction from from mythtvosd commands that previously has been working for several years. This is kind of annoying, and I hope it'll be fixed in 0.24 still.

Not a bug.
