[QUOTE="mortstar, post: 399050, member: 66294"] Thanks for the info dvd-freak. I've now got my head around how 4tr works. I think I'll wait for 1.0.1 MP and 4tr's imminent next release before trying it all out. Skin wise (I use StreamedMP) Vuego has updated the 4tr skin files to match how the normal TVPlugin looks ([url]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/streamedmp-301/4therecord-skin-who-owns-development-bugs-54666/index4.html#post398759[/url]), this makes the switch over for the other non-geeks in the household much simpler. It seems that auto-thumb creation for recorded programs (a feature of the MP tv client) is not implemented in 4tr, any chance it may get a look in? My other question is in regards to EPG data. I understand that 4tr handles mulitple sources of data very intelligently (which is fantastic - the more detail the better!). I take it the 4tr rules based around actors actually uses the <credits> xmltv tags, or does it just look inside the description field? Also I just wanted to flag up some work DJBlu has done for UK & Italian DVB-S users. He has made it possible to get EPG data direct from the stream. His post [URL="https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/development-91/sky-uk-uk-freesat-epg-43261-post397816/#post397816"]here[/URL] talks about a feature inside this EPG data called 'Series Link' which uses CRIDs to link a series. On Sky UK boxes this means that a series of, for example, Top Gear can be "series linked" and the box automatically picks up the first run of each new episode automatically and if an episode recording is missed, a repeat can be found just using the CRID. This is going to be an absolute killer feature within MediaPortal for UK users, it would be sweet if 4tr picked up the capability to series-link an entire series of a program. [/QUOTE]
