[QUOTE="Bleazle, post: 501731, member: 53582"] I don't think there is one? If you find one let me know because this is one of the main reasons I haven't put too much thought into building a new HD HTPC - I love (almost) never having to skip commercial breaks :) I've got the answer for you!! :D Well it works for me anyway.... (Note: You will need a KeyBoard remote) Install ZeeVee's Zinc from here: [url=http://www.zeevee.com/zinc]Zinc? - Our Free Internet Video Browser. | ZeeVee.com[/url] then install the My Zinc Plugin from here [url=https://www.team-mediaportal.com/files/startdown/1478/]MEDIAPORTAL - free media center - My Zinc[/url] Installation of the plugin is VERY straightforward (see the readme file included). The forum thread for the plugin is here: [URL="https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/mediaportal-plugins-47/anyone-interested-zinc-plugin-59250/"]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/mediaportal-plugins-47/anyone-interested-zinc-plugin-59250/[/URL] To get TVNZ on Demand launch My Zinc (watch the intro video), then move the mouse to the top of the screen and type "http://tvnz.co.nz/video" in the browser address bar that appears. Then click on the RSS Feed link alongside "Watch Episodes" (No. 1 in the 1st screenshot below). This will load the links into Zinc (2nd screenshot) then click "Add to Favourites". Done! :) The next time you open Zinc just click on Favourites -> Watch Episodes -> scroll to the show you want to watch then click on it. You need the Keyboard remote to click on the "Fullscreen" control. That's it :) I'm no expert on this plugin - I looked at it a while ago but didn't get this far (your post prompted me to have another look). Looking at the TVNZ site it looks like you can subscribe to individual programmes which will then (I assume) show up in the "New" folder in Zinc as new programmes are added. I've just had a quick play around with the YouTube search - it's great. I can see that this plugin will be very popular in my household if it works as well as it seems to on first impression... Hope that helps you. Bleazle [/QUOTE]
