Send Show Window
This is what the Send Show window looks like in Poopli when you are using Poopli+IVSMagic.
NOTE: IE Users: While the demo works in Internet Explorer, it doesn't look as nice and the size of the send window may change while you're using it. The add on itself is Firefox specific, but this should give you a taste of what it's like should you choose to install Firefox and the other components necessary to run Poopli+IVSMagic.
Try it!
Go ahead and click the icons and links you see to the right to try it out. Some things to notice:
- You can test the ISN number by clicking the
icon.
- If for some reason you just want to notify Poopli about the show send, click the "Send Manually" link before attempting to send the show. To go back to sending via IVSMagic, click the "Send via IVSMagic" link.
- Note that the requestor has misspelled the show name, so we were unable to automatically select the show name. If the name was spelled right, it would already be selected and we could just click the "Send Show" button!
- Select a show that you wish to send the user. Only your Poopli etiquette prevents you from sending the wrong show...
- Note that no matter what ReplayTV your show is on, it will appear in the list of episodes and you can send it.
- Once you've got a show selected, click "Send Show".
Status Pane
Here you see a demo of the status pane. The size of the progress bar is determined by the size of the show being sent or received. All sends go from left to right and finish at the right edge, all receives (not shown here) go the other way and finish at the left edge. The color and animation of the bar indicate if a show has not yet been started, or is currently transferring, or has partially transferred but is now stalled. Speeds and estimated times are shown for currently transferring shows.

Features you can try here:
- Pause a show that is partially sent (click )
- Open and close the Settings window (click )
- In the config window, change the "verbosity" by clicking the
icon
Features that do not work here but work in the real status pane:
- Show/hide completed or unstarted shows in the Settings window
- Deny sends (click )
- Delete sends from IVSMagic (click )
- Enable "Near matching" of shows in the Settings window.
In the show send window, a show will be suggested if it is a "near match" when this box is checked. You can set a threshold of how close a match is before the show send window suggests that show. This is a number between 1 and 10000, where 10000 means an exact match. For example "Bones" and "Boneyard" would have a match score of 5000 because they have four letters in the same slots out of eight possible slots, so a threshold higher than 5000 will not result in a wrong suggestion in this case. In any case, only the best match score is considered, so if you have both "Bones" and "Boneyard", the correct one will be chosen.
With the box not checked, only exact matches will be considered and you'll have to select a show by hand even for slight typos. Decide whether you'd rather risk accidentally sending the wrong show, or having to select a show more often.
NOTE:You must click the "Save" button after modifying the IVSMagic URL or the Near-Match Threshold in order for the changes to be saved.
Especially handy is the fact that you can delete or deny or pause several shows at once, as each click is handled separately. On the IVSMagic page, each delete click must be confirmed before you do another action.
