Hi sub
I was wondering. I being checking through your capture  source setting. I see under channel changer you have a changer .exe which is quite usable for me.. but I was wondering could you add  a simple capture source that just specifies a file name and location.
that way I can use it to tune to a specific file. be it locally  or remotely.
IE.  I use the channel .exe to fire up Vlc in the background to log on to a specific upd  broadcast channel  or web channel or software written file  and write it to the drive.  and the simple  capture source just opens  this defined file .
I see many uses for it
funny enough it works somewhat now if i broadcast a upd broadcast at a specific port locally ( ie  channel changer  param is  udp://@:channel  and I set the channel to equal the port setting it will play the audio. ( i think what happening is that vlc is playing hidden  so all I hear is the audio.  but if I write it to the drive with this param udp://@:channel out=#duplicate{dst=std{access=file,mux=ts,url="C:\buffer.mpg"}} .
( or transcode a websource material to a sutible format with this setting out=#transcode{vcodec=mp1v,vb=1024,scale=1,acodec=mpga,ab=192,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=std{access=file,mux=ts,url="C:\buffer.mpg"}} )
now all I would need is a simple capture source that would access this  c:\buffer.mpg file to display on gb-pvr..
if you did this I would be happy.. I could simple set up a mulitude of programs to capture and display stuff via gbpvr.
the only problem I see is that ( i not sure) but when one selects another channel  one woulds need  to force  close the exe  executed by the  channel changer plugin. because it looks like  it will stay open
