2.1.4 - Documenting/Comments on release

[steeb]

Dear all,

I would be very interested to hear from users that occasionally visit this forum or new users that are just finding that NextPVR 2.14 has just been released how that experience is going?

i.e.

how did you find out?
how clear was the forum?
how did the wiki help?

etc etc

and of course a big thanks to sub, as usual, looking very very good

cheers

Hi,

I had a big long response and lost it (this is only my 2nd post), so I'll summarize.

I've used GBPVR for a year or two, tried NPVR in January but didn't have time to make it usable for the family, so stuck with GBPVR. Finally switched over to NPVR for good a couple of weeks ago (2.0.3). I check the forums as I have issues - maybe every 2 or 3 months. The sticky at the top with new releases is nice. One complaint - there was a patch that I needed, and it took me a couple days of searching for the issue before coming across the patch thread.

I liked the information in the old GBPVR wiki, and would like to see the NPVR wiki filled in. I'm even thinking of volunteering to help.

I'll be updating to 2.1.4 soon, and I'll let you know my thoughts on how that goes.

Thank you Gob,

this is just, EXACTLY, the kind of feedback needed and the purpose of this thread.

I think you have led the way here by not being shy. I would hope that other infrequent/new users/posters are encouraged by your post here. We are a very friendly community

One complaint - there was a patch that I needed, and it took me a couple days of searching for the issue before coming across the patch thread.

I for one totally agree with this. There seems to have been historically a problem with search on this forum. How we fix that I am not sure?

The GB-PVR wiki was built up over many years. The NextPVR one in as probably as many months as the years the GB-PVR one was. There is stuff missing/incomplete. If you would like to volunteer, my wish, your command

cheers

Any particular pages or sections that you think deserve to be 'filled in' first?

Client/Extenders were the ones I was looking for, in particular.
