An X-Lite plugin for VOIP.

And

Don't you all hate it when you're watching TV and you fall asleep, then all of the sudden you get awoken by it! That's why TV's have the easy to use sleep timers where you press a button and it will add the amount of minutes till shut down.

If I knew how to code I'd program the plugin, but I can't Sad. So, I was wondering if anyone here would be kind enough to create a plugin, so that each time you press a button, it will add about 15 minutes to the shutdown. The main use of this plugin would be for TV or Movies.

It gets really annoying using that standard feature where I have to get out of MY TV/My Movies just to turn the timer on!
!

I posted that before in the Plugins forum. Hope you will add those to the list .

Thanks!

Another vote for Closed Captions

This is one feature I need. My wife is always on the PCHT becuse it has poor closed captioning. Add this and all is well.

How about supporting HDTV in h.264? This seems to be becoming the european standard for HDTV.

Wishes:

1. DVB-T subtitles
2. Picture-in-Picture / Picture-and-Picture
3. Speed (Microsoft changes channels 4-5 times faster than MP)

 

[cashel]

my two biggest requests are:

channel gap support (so when we enter channel 500, we don't go to the 500th channel in the MP database, but the actual channel 500)

speeding up of the MP program in general

I also wouldn't mind seeing the PVR feature reorganized a little, it's a bit confusing for someone who hasn't used it before.

Everything else I'd like to see has been said already.

keep up the good work!

1 - Fastest DVB-T Channel Switching :
It has been recently greatly improved, but it must be even faster

2a - Support of any remote control with Microsoft remote control receiver :
i know that this can be achieved with hip, but it is the same than using the keyboard. Controling MP with the keyboard is difficult because this part of MP is not customizable. I mean you can't tell mp what to to with a keystroke depending of what mp is doing.

2b - more flexible keyboard control (we should be able to configure the key of the keyboard the same way than the key of the hauppauge remote control for exemple)

3 - ability to decide to keep a TV Show when it is timeshifted :
You are watching tV, timeshifting is on with a 90 min buffer. at the end of the curently playing show, you decide that you want to keep this show. You can't, even if the data are in the memory of the computer ....


4 - Better Screen size adjustment, overscan conpensation, ...

4a - you can set values to compensate overscan. the problem is that this values doesn't apply to mp gui/skin, only to video and TV. overscan compensation should apply to ALL mp. same thing for aspect ratio.

4b - ability to progressively zoom in/out the whole screen at any time.
it would be very usefull when you watch movies that are wider that your screen. you could decide precisely the side parts of the video that you accept to lose to reduce upper and lower black bars.
It would also be usefull for photos.

This is already possible. Perhaps it's buggy I don't know but the feature is there.
