Default digiguide / tivo plug-ins?

Hi there,
I am setting up a HTPC and was wondering:
1 if there are any plans to have plug-ins with Tivo "about to change channel to record" warnings? As there are time that I get in to a prog and Tivo pops up and ask if I want to cancel this recording and stay on this channel. I find that this is one of the best little functions of my Tivo.

2 if there are going to be a right click in digiguide plug-in that gives the watch or record this program option.

3 a plug-in that will give a once a day / week menu with suggested recordings and the option to de-select item you do not want recording? With thumbs up - down would be cool to?

4 a plug-in that can check that the sky / NTL box is recording the right channel, as Tivo and I understand from my son media portal some times send the ir code but it gets some not all so switches to 0 ( box office )

Link to the Tivo - digiguide plug-in that I use at the moment on my Tivo with TivoWeb: http://www.tivocommunity.com/tivo-vb...hreadid=144032
Other Tivo plug-ins that might give you some ideas!!!! I hope....: http://alt.org/wiki/index.php/TiVoWeb%20Modules
And here is the link to digiguide (I think the best pc based TV guide) http://www.digiguide.com/community/

Well that is all......... thank god you say........ Thank you in advance for looking and hopefully creating some / all of the above.....


Running at the moment:
Ntlworld with films
Tivo 400GB TivoWeb setup

HTPC I am building:
ga-7n400 pro 2 main board with 2100+ AMD
1 GB DDR 2700
1tb (if I can get the cash together )
2x liteon 16x dvd-rw / dl
32 x card reader
Running media centre edition or xp pro not decided yet (feedback welcome)

Once again thank you...

Oh God, yes please

I have Digiguide on a desktop PC and MediaPortal on a dedicated HTPC so I'd like to right click in Digiguide and select Record on MediaPortal and it to send that to the HTPC for recording.

For the remote record function (albeit in a totally differrent way), look for the webEPG plugin.

My System

Default

1. AFAIK this is already in MP
2. AFAIK the default MP behaviour when clicking an item in EPG is : if in the future then display record dialog, else switch to and watch.
3. http://forum.team-mediaportal.com/viewtopic.php?t=12786
4. How to know that we are on the good channel ?

Have fun with MP
