Wow! That gadget is really useful... just what I was looking for :-) Thanks.
I read I think that the gadget makes use of RSS data from NEWA? Is it therefore possible to make the status of tuners scroll across the bottom of XBMC, as that has an RSS ticker!??! - I've found the RSS feeds for pending recordings etc. - but don't think there's one for tuner status?

I've tried starting to build my own RSS script from info displayed on the page, but can't CURL the page from PHP due to it being password protected....
<?php

$url = "http://MYWEBADDRESS:8866/info2.aspx";
$curl = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
$output = curl_exec($curl);

echo $output;
curl_close($curl);

$DOM = new DOMDocument;
$DOM->loadHTML( $output);

//get all H1
$items = $DOM->getElementsByTagName('div');

//display all H1 text
for ($i = 0; $i < $items->length; $i++)
echo $items->item($i)->nodeValue . "<br/>";


?>

THanks,
John
