nobody.loopback Wrote:Dont know exactly because I still dont have an oversight about the architecture of XBMC, what I suggested is, if the channel name is "AAA", and, the EPG title of the current channel is "some nice movie", just concat those two strings in the module which read the channel, then it will appear in the channel list, and, also in the info window of the playing movie.
This is easy.

Another thing is to have the now/next functionality, and, the long EPG, This has to be done in the main app, also a complete new module has to be written.

what do you mean by "Is there possiblity of using the pvr testing features?"

tdw197 Wrote:There used to be a script done by bigbellybilly, I think, which grabbed the epg for a dreambox and allowed zapping and recording sheduling. I'll see if I can find it and test it, no reason why it shouldn't still work.

What I meant by the pvr testing branch, is the branch of xbmc (which will be mergers after dharma I think) with the pvr front ends for vdr, myth, tv serve etc. This has a generic interface which is populated according to the back end you specify.

As this is done with the myth:// protocol, could it be possible with the tuxbox:// ?

nobody.loopback Wrote:Ah, i see, there is already some work in progress.
But then, it doesnt make much sense to invest efforts in a solution which is specific for the tuxbox (?)

vdrfan Wrote:Right, PVR is not limited to myth or other backends. Once the PVR code is in place someone should start a tuxbox addon.
