Post subject:  How do I modify the MythTV Status page?

I currently get the following output from the status page on mythweb:

Disk Usage:

* Master Backend:
o Total Space: 231,759 MB
o Space Used: 223,710 MB
o Space Free: 8,049 MB
* Total Disk Space:
o Total Space: 231,759 MB
o Space Used: 223,710 MB
o Space Free: 8,049 MB


As I only have a single backend system, I don't need both listings. I would like tochange one of them to give me info on my LVM which i use for non myth storage....

can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Its possible that changing this involves changing the source code. Try posting on the mythtv mailing list (google for it).

You would need to change the PHP code under the /usr/share/mythtv/mythweb/modules/status directory. It's probably doable, but doesn't look trivial... You'll have to decide if the extra information bothers you enough to be worth the effort. Personally I think this is up there with worrying about whether people break their eggs on the small end or the big end... ;-)

the status page is a little different then most of the rest of mythweb. While most of mythweb makes PHP/Mysql calls to collect data to display, the status page 'asks' the backend for the information.

There is a BackendStatusPort defined in the Settings table, you can get the data by submitting an http request to the port. The request returns a full html stream for display.

http://locallost:

On my box...

http://localhost:6544

You can either mod the server code to generate a different html stream for the request, or parse the resulting html in the $status variable in the code directory referenced above.

Cheers
