What UI would you like to see and how would it behave?

Do you need any from SchedulesDirect here in the US? I can give you a sample if you still need it.

One would be good if you've got one handy. Thanks.

Here is a 1-day sample from SD from a US listing (DirecTV).

Do you also want a zap2it.xml?

Thanks - but I've already got one of these.

Here's a sample from the UK Freesat EPG (captured over-the-air by DVBGuide).

In terms of content (titles, description lengths, etc) it's all but identical to the Freeview EPG we get, and that gbpvr supports already.

I was thinking how often i opened up PVRX2 just to see what is scheduled to record that day. I was thinking it would be cool if the tray icon had an option for "display scheduled recordings" just for the current day

Can I suggest having a look at SlimmGBPVR which can show pending recordings from it's tray icon or ISTR there is a command line version that pops up a window of upcoming recordings.

UI changes?
Don't shoot me if this was already mentioned, but I read quite a few posts in this thread, and didn't see it.

For starters, a better way to start/stop recordings. If ctrl-k starts it, then hitting it again should stop it.

A way to switch tuners via the UI.

For QAM support, I did see a person mention drop & drag support, and that would be nice, or a auto-map feature, starting from the channels you want them mapped from.
Then again, you don't really need to map them per se, it could be just a different menu that has digital 1-xxx, and people can then edit the names, IF the info isn't available when the channels were scanned.

A quick way to set a program up for recording, and a way to stop recordings that is just as quick. For this, I don't mean hitting ctrl-k, I mean, you know when the program will start, just pop up a box enter the data, and be done. I don't really like looking at the EPG guide. Takes far longer than it should.

On the recording status, it would be nice to list MB/sec it is recording, and any 'skips' that may have occured while recording for whatever reason. (listing said reason is bonus points )

This is just my first impressions so far...

This sounds like the manual recordings popup.
