hi guys,
here's something I'm working on, looking for alpha testers in about a week or two. must be brave and be able to follow instructions to setup IIS (and have a computer with IIS...).
you can track progress on github
the first alpha won't have mobile support, but the first beta will, will be focusing on the core functionality for full webapp at first, and trying to make nextpvr as headless as possible, you can configure pretty much everything from this webconsole, except for scanning for channels (hopefully i can work with sub later to add this, i have been bugging him a lot already
).
most of the work is done for the alpha, i just have to finalize the guide screen and the dashboard and fix some browser issues. and do some more unit testing.
system requirements would be
- IIS (only for pre final, IIS Express would probably work, havent tested it)
- .net 4
- Chrome, Latest Firefox, IE 9+ (maybe limited support for IE8, no support for earlier versions of IE, its using a lot of CSS3 which isnt supported in old browsers)
a cool feature: User support, where each user can have their own
channels
the only client to support this so far is xbmc (slightly modified version of subs addon, will be requesting a code merge later to include the 2 minor changes needed into subs official addon) and of course this webconsole. all this user stuff works pretty well in NextPVR, where user directories just appear as "Extra Recording Directories" if running NextPVR gui, so thanks to sub to making NextPVR so flexible![Smile Smile](https://forums.nextpvr.com/images/smilies/smile.png)
ps forgive the dashboard screenshot, thats old and I've been working right to left on the pages (guide and dashboard left to go).

a cool feature: User support, where each user can have their own
channels
- A user can number channels differently to the system channel numbers, for example I have TV3 SD and TV3 HD, on one client i would like TV3 HD to be channel 3 and on another client that doesnt support hd i would like TV3 SD to be channel 3.
- A user can also disable channels they don't want to see.
- a user can make their own channel groups eg create a "Favourite" channel group which only they see and list their favourite channels.
- there are also "Shared" channel groups which users can subscribe to , so a user can just subscribe to a channel group "Sports" and not maintain it them self. So when a new sports channel becomes available the admin user would add this channel to the master "Sports" channel group then it would appear in everyones "Sports" channel group.
- each user can manage their own recording directories for example I might create a directory "Docos" and i can select to record something to this directory where no other user will have access to it.
- There can also be multiple "Shared" recording directories where anyone can record to these directories and anyone can view them, so I might record a program everyone might want to watch to the "Shared - Movies" directory for example
