Wow... cool... you seem to have done a good job! This is quite interesting if you can pull it off and get it stable =) Keep up the good work!

Is someone able to help out with putting this on WIKI, i think that would help alot, there will be a number of people here that can help point in the direction to help it work. I for one would love an MVP client on the PC.

Any update on this topic?
I am very interested in the Media-MVP like PC client for GBPVR.

Do I have to run this on the GBPVR server? All I get is "Timeout gui". What are the ports on the Config.txt? I left them as the value they were. Do I need to change them?

Try setting the IP address to that of your pvr, ie. not 127.0.0.1 which is the local machine but rather the actual address.

What are the port numbers that should be entered into the config.txt file?

Also, do I need to set GBPVR to autostart an additional MVP server in the GBPVR configuration?

Thanks,

First you need to SRART an MVP server on the server, this is done below:

SERVER
In config go to TAB "MVP" (your need the latest version of GBPVR for this tab) theres an option "Number of servers to auto start" this needs to be set to the amount of MVP clients you have, so if this is the ONLY one then set it to "1". Then OK and you will have the client on the server AND an MVP client you cant see as well.

The above must be done or no MVP client will log in as the server isnt "serving" any MVP client controls.

Yes.

I've posted the VB6 source code for the MVP client here, if anyone wants to look at it, or more importantly, make it run better.

Has anyone gotten it working on their own computer?

Does anyone know how we can coordinate making changes to the source? I wouldn't mind doing a complete rewrite (with better programming techniques), now that I know what's going on with the protocol.

Ive created a thread in "Developers" so who ever wants to re-program it can post links there. The thread link is "http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?p=101675#post101675"

Post links here to help others who want to create parts. It might be handy who ever is coding have access to WIKI but for this only really one clinet per WIKI entry and from that we will get a working MVP Client.

I think a good move would be get a fairly stable working client then WIKI access would be a good idea.

See you in the new thread :o)
