[hoborg]

Hi. Is there an plugin wich will bring some recording notificator (like red/green ball) on desktop? I disabled on my HTPC taskbar, but i miss such notificator a lot.
Something like iMon have when recieved IR signal.

Any tips?

If you are running Vista, there is a Sidebar gadget included in EWA.

Browse to the GBPVR program folder
Browse to web\Services\Installs\Vista
Double click "GBPVR.gadget"
Select "Install"

The icon will be grey when idle, green when recording and red when it can't communicate or there is low disk space (configurable). The flyout will give additional information like which tuners are recording, etc. It can be configured for low disk space warnings and can also be run on a client machine to monitor a GBPVR server.

EWA must be running on the target machine.
