I have a Caller ID plugin about ready. Â However, there are some gbpvr issues that need to be resolved before I can officially release it. Â But there are a couple things you can do to get your system ready.
For those interested in trying this, you can go and get the YAC Caller ID program and get that setup and running on your network. Â You can run the main YAC program either on your GBPVR box, or on another box on your network (so you don't have to have a modem in, or run a phone line to, your gbpvr box if you don't want to). Â Test it out on the install machine and get it working nice. Â Then when you get the CallerID plugin you just need to configure a 'listener' in YAC. Â If YAC is running on the gbpvr box, you will create a listener to 'localhost'. Â If it's on another box on your LAN, you set the listener to the IP of the gbpvr box.
By default, YAC (and the CallerID plugin) uses port 10629. Â if this doesn't work for you, change it in YAC and in the CallerID plugin config.
That should be all there is to it!
Here is what it looks like now. Â It will look better once sub fine tunes the method of plugins putting text on the screen. Â Up until now, no one has really tried this method before
