How would I put up a 'loading' screen to indicate the plugin was going out on the net to gather data (like the weather data for example)?  I don't see how I would render the loading screen and return to gb-pvr and still go out, get the data, and render the 'real' weather screen.

Do we need a new plugin method like:

// returns true to render something and false if no splash screen
public bool SplashScreen()

I'm using Hauppauge PVR2 USB2:
Is it possible to use GB-PVR only for watching TV? How would it be possible?
I couldn't get a XMLTV-File for my location (Austria/Europe)?
Would it be possible to scan for the avaliable channels?

Thanks for your help!

I am trying to configure the channel setup (The Netherlands). When using the Hauppage software, I can finetune (+ or -).

My cablecompany delivers some (quite a bit) channels in like this:

Station Channel Frequency
TMF The Music Factory 22+ 482.25

When I just give channel #22 I don't get any signal, so it needs to be finetuned (or the frequency keyed in). Is there any way to do this?
(the channels that don't have + or - work perfectly)

Thanx in advance,

It isn't complete yet but I figured I'd let you all see what it looks like so far.  Only the current conditions and radar image work right now.  I will be adding the other 3 buttons today or tomorrow.

The source is not included yet.  But it will be when the plugin is released.  It is based heavily on the supplied weather plugin C# example.

WeatherPluginAlpha.zip

Right now when you click on the 'current' button with the mouse, it is not highlighted.  That's the only bug I know of so let me know of any others.

As you will see shortly when I put up a new weather alpha, my photoshop skills are almost non existant. If someone has a few minutes and could make default blue buttons (including selected) with the following labels it would be greatly appreciated:

Current
Radar
Extended
Today
Tomorrow

Once you see how mine came out, you will see why I'm asking

I have a very alpha version of a enhanced weather plugin about ready to unleash. One problem I'm having is when you click on one of the buttons, it works OK, but the button does not get highlighted. I imagine something in OnClick has to modify selectedButton. Has anyone tackled this yet and if so, what was the fix?

If I choose a mp3 file for playback, or when I try Netradio, I get no sound at all. If I play a file through Winamp it works fine. I also can use my Xcard to play mp3 files using XMP (player for the Xcard.
When watching tv or playing a recording (throught the Xcard) sound is OK.

Sub,
In my situation, I want to use multiple MVPs in my house with each one running a GBPVR MVP client. I currently have two MVPs, one connected to a Sony TV and the other connected to a LCD monitor. In order to have GBPVR fill and postion the screen the best possible way, I would need different MVP settings in the config.xml file.

Would it be possible, in a future release, to somehow over come this problem. MVPs have unique MAC addresses. Maybe someway you could have a config file that assigns MVP settings by MAC address.

Perhaps obvious but I didn't see it listed, so ...

Ripping MP3's from the CD's to the music folder would be nice too.

It would be nice to see the timeline on-screen during FF/REW operations.
