I've finally got my live tv channels all working with Pseudo Tv now =D

A couple of requests I do have though would be:

Settop box mode - It would be nice if this functioned similar to the Live TV functionality. E.g. it loads up the epg/channel data when XBMC starts and continues to update in the background so you have 0 delay switching in and out of the main menu, epg and channels. It would also be nice if Pseudo TV kept playing when you went back to the menu until you start something else.

EPG Colouring - Would be nice to specify this as an option per channel so I can colour all my live tv channels one colour etc and playlist channels another etc.

EPG Categories/Size - An option to increase the amount of channels per page and assign channels to sub categories would be cool e.g. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3402/3408...473f8e.jpg

Handling multiple strm fails - atm on some of my tv show channels I have some shows missing with missing dead strms for entire series and if it fails a bunch of episodes in a row I get playback failed which results in pseudoTV becoming unresponsive.

Settop mode - this is basically how it was designed, once enabled it turns on autostart, so that it loads with xbmc... and will run on a hourly update schedule not a daily one. It's a little buggy right now I would wait for final release.

epg coloring - already have this change from genre to chtype.. each chtype ie (livetv, internettv, local, etc) will have its own color

epg cat/size - not interested in sub cat's or limited channels by cat. I will be adding some new overlay features like a sidebar that will bring up a quick list of whats "on" now...

Error handling - I actually have a pretty good one setup, but I think because I don't document how to handle errors users jump the gun. The safest way to use pseudotv live is with strms or actual media files. Strms allow for redundancy that are in place. for example if you have two sources for the same stream, if you place both in one file, Pseudotv will automatically play the working one. If both fail a backup file is played to keep pseudo from bugging out.

If your not using strm's I have a dead link catcher that will avoid building a channel that has dead links... since I can't catch them all I have a script in place that will either try skipping through the next three shows on the list, if that fails Pseudotv should change the channel automatically.

Since we are dealing with internet sources depending on connections speeds and latencies this process can seem slow, making users think Pseudotv has failed...
