My only request is that you hook up with Lunatixz and get this rolling with PseudoTV Live... then our journey to the Dark Side would be complete.

Is there anyway it can save the metadata to the recording? So they are recognized in "Tv Shows".
I know it's a long shot. But is there any chance it can stream the Netflix plugin from WMC?

Android, Android, Android... If I could run this on my Ouya I could finally get my big-ass HTPC out of the livingroom.

How about an auto update feature for the server?
Or at least a button or an auto check that lets you know you are running an older version, maybe optional to notify or not?

AutoUpdate is definitely something we plan to do, just comes down to priority/time.
Run As Service - as mentioned earlier in this thread, I put in place a basic implementation that will allow advanced users to run ServerWMC as a service. This now in the build that krusty has just released. There are no bells and whistles, and a couple of manual installation steps, but it's working OK. Hopefully this gives those who were desperate for this, "something" for now. I've posted details in the Wiki updates thread for TechLife to get up on the wiki. Check the thread if you cant wait for the wiki. Be aware of the limitations and follow the instructions completely.
Android - yes we would love to have it working on android. There probably arent many/any code changes required as our client side is quite simple really (most of the work is done in the backend). The big impediment is setting up a development environment - it sounds like a real pain, apparently only a 64bit ubuntu build is reccomended and you have to get NDK, SDK etc all sorted out. I currently have a VM running debian, so I can make sure our stuff will compile for linux and OSX etc, but I am far from a linux expert. Then you need a device to test it on as well and I only have a HTC One, older phones like HTC One XL, or a really old TF101 transformer tablet. To be honest I dont even know if Androiud XBMC is meant to work on these devices or if it's more for the TV/media center type devices. If someone wants to donate me a android TV stick, or Ouya, I might be more inclined to spend time/effort grappling with it! :p
The invitation is always open to anybody with any skill, or even just determination, to lend a hand and try and get android going!

Hello folks,
I posted this in the wrong spot a while ago. I am a software engineer with a lot of experience programming on the windows platform but very little on that of Linux. I would be happy to offer a hand in any way I can. I am very family with the .Net platform, more in VB than C#(haven't done much since engeineering school) but I can do it. My specially is writing back-end high perfmance eTrading systems so I could help with hosting the app core in a windows service.
Anyway, thanks for the project, I have enjoyed it thus far. BTW, I am running OpenELEC with the PVR.WMC addon against the 1098 build of ServerWMC and have had very few issues.
