[QUOTE="draktheas, post: 44353, member: 17330"] Sorry for the lack of updates. I have been taking some much needed rest from the project for the past week or so. The next phase of my development is going to require me to re-write MPSA and implement the interfaces for DVB that were added to DirectShow for XP Media Center Edition rollup 2. This is a huge amount of work and will require not only re-writing MPSA, but much of the code inside Media Portal that deals with tuning as well. If you want an overview of why this is necessary for me to test TechnoTrend Premium support, continue reading below. As this is going to be a huge amount of work, I am going to take one more week off and spend some time with my family before I start this major update. Reason I have to re-write MPSA to test TechnoTrend Premium support: There is a problem with MPSA that will not allow North American satellites to be scanned for channels properly. So without these changes, I can't even test my TechnoTrend Premium support as I am in North America. Up until last week I spent two weeks trying to 'fix' the current version of MPSA to work for North American satellites and after many different attempts and approaches I can't see an easy way to make it work. Re-writing MPSA will be pretty straight forward as I already know all of the interfaces I have to support and they are fairly atomic and simple. There are just A LOT of them. Once I get started on this stuff I can give you a better estimate of how long it will be. Thank you all for the support and waiting patiently for me to finish this. I know it can't be easy waiting. I also appologize for my gross underestimate of the amount of time this would take. I know I originally thought it would only take a month but there have been so many unexpected road blocks along the way. Once again, I want to let you all know I am still working on this and it will be done someday. Notice I have stopped saying 'soon'. :) Drak [/QUOTE]
