hi there.
I'm still overseas, but looking very forward to trying this out.
From the rate of development, it may be v5.0 that I will be installing. You're pretty amazing...

I have a couple of suggestions, but not sure if these are silly things, since I havent been able to try it yet.

1) TV cards - do you have access to the status of tv cards? May be good to have a screen that shows which cards are idle and which are active. Just might be nice to get this sort of info.
2) Stats - is it possible to give the amount of disk space left on the recording drives? would be good to know that when checking in and scheduling recording from external.
3) is there a way to have the login page on an external web page? I haven't looked to close and can't do any experimenting at the moment, but would like to embed tht on an external site. Probably not that important, these are just off the wall thoughts.
4) Connections - is there a way to show which clients are connectd to the database? kind of a bit of extra info from the TV turner status request.

That's just a bit of brainstorming I cam up with. I figure since we are looking in from outside the house in most instances, it could be good to know some technical information as well.

Regards, and thanks for what appears to be a great app for MP (going by everyone elses reactions).

Marcus.
