[QUOTE="ChubbyArse, post: 1063785, member: 117700"] Hi All, I'm very new to MP - moving from WMC. I'd like to create a visual plugin that works a lot like the Movie Guide, displays a coverflow representation of the movies listed in the EPG. I had a dig around the plug in repository and I'm a bit overwhelmed by the amount of (good) stuff there is, so I'd appreciate some pointers to some existing examples of similar component usage. So, scratching the surface I need to know how to: [LIST] [*]Access the EPG data stored and query it for movies / films and then possibly by genre? [*]Determine if any returned from above are already set to record [*]Initiate a record of an EPG programme (and potentially resolve recording conflicts) [/LIST] I think I'll be able to figure the presentation aspects from the prior art in the repository (starting simply of course). Thanks for any help you can give. [/QUOTE]
