I've got a working version of a Gmail plugin (similar to Googles own 'Gmail Notifier').
At the moment my account details are hard coded into the dll. I dont want to write the username/password as plain text to the config.xml file. Any one know of a good, yet simple way of reading/writing an encrypted string using C#?
Im thinking about getting the Media MVP and was wondering if there is limitations that gb-pvr can do on a Media MVP vs on the computer. I guess what I'm asking is: what a computer running GB-PVR can do more than a Media MVP running gb-pvr on your TV. Also do all the updates refer to Media MVP also and not just gb-pvr running on the computer?
:o Having trouble remembering your Morhters birthday or your wifes ?
Reminder Panel lets you edit a simple database with all important dates as well as the alert format.
[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]
Please see the readme-reminderpanel.txt (in zip)
Special requirements: none
***** Please be patient *****
Even the newest release (0.6) has a major flaw in the configuration (database edit) parts.
Please note that until next release the ONLY way to enter new data (except the 4 example reminders) is by editing the Reminders.XML file yourself. If you're not familiar with XML files and not carefull, this might result in GBPVR.exe and/or Config.exe not being able to start.
If this should happen, just delete the Plugins\ReminderPanel.dll file and try to start GBPVR or Config again.
The error doesn't harm your GBPVR installation, it's just a really really irritating. ************************
*** Updated to Version 0.6 ***
o Changed Plugin to generate sample data if Reminders.xml file is not present - thereby removing one major obstacle for first time users
o Removed the example reminder database Reminders-example.xml since the file is auto generated
o Added some error handling in opening the database file
o Changed timer algorithm to enable more smothly timed display
o Removed menu item from the GBPVR main-page
o Panel is only shown when the plugin is active
I have finally realized the reason for some slightly nagging problems i have been having. Postprocessing.bat does not run after a manually scheduled recording.
Has anyone else noticed this behavior, or is it just a bug in my system?
Maybe this is already possible. But I'm wondering if it's possible to create several recording profiles apart from the ones listed. In other words, I'm wondering whether I can create recording profiles that match what i'm recording. I know i can change the stuff under custom1 and custom2 and others, but it'd be easier if i can also change the name. For example, I can have a Sports Profile; 2-hour movie profile; 3-hour movie profile; etc... Each one I would set at a different bitrate to fit on a DVD.
Had a hard day yesterday. Thought I would add a second tuner to my system to make life easier - Not likely! After many hours I finally worked out the problem.
I now seem have too many devices attached to my aerial and the resulting signal seems to be dropping below some magic threshold on the digital tuners. The result for the record is: jerky image - MPEG artefacts and audio drop out.
I guess I shouldn't be surprised there are 3 TVs, a VCR, 3 tuners, and a STB on the line. All want a share of the signal strength.
You are generally not recommended to add amplifiers or boosters for digital reception. So how does everyone else attach multiple tuners to the one aerial. Spitters, custom short cables, shielding, etc..
