[QUOTE="Benoire, post: 1112412, member: 121281"] [USER=68371]@qvindesland[/USER] if you want to contribute financially, donate to MP to keep them funding new developments, support for new tuners etc. With respect to this, the code for the plugins is in my github (Benoire) and then under the main MP repo as custom data grabber stuff. The main MP code is in C# and this includes the changes to TSwriter to make this work with MP and the Custom Data Grabber which does the PID handling. the plugins themselves are in VB.net but it might be useful to convert them to C#. Potential improvements could be around the handling of non standard channels i.e. box office etc. Currently the plugins use a defined entry point with a fixed length to decode the titles/summaries, by following an EPGcollector and TVE3.5 approach of using the tags, we should be able to get titles/summaries for all channels contained in the stream. Another point of 'improvement' is to establish HOW djblu managed to get the categories from the stream and auto assign the groups... I haven't been able to sort this out and its bugging me! Another one, which I fixed in the NZ plugin although not how I want to, is to create a check box that allows you to define the range of LCNs (channel numbers) to display automatically; a range of 1-799 should include all channels within this range and exclude all others... For NZ this was useful as it stopped me getting some of the channels that are hidden by Sky NZ but kept showing up. Perhaps sort out the throttling and threading issues from the UK one on my github one as that is a mashed together version of different version and decompiled to make it work. Just some thoughts to start with :-) [/QUOTE]
