    If the video capture input is "software encoding" (and most are), then the answer is no .... :(

    However, if the video capture input is "hardware encoding", then it should already be supported. I don't know what type the Winfast PVR2000 is, but I strongly suspect that it is software encoding.

    The PVR2000 is a hardware card ... I find no way to access the line in within this software?

    Have you tried adding it as an external channel via the "Add CVBS/SVHS" button in MediaPortal Setup -> Television -> TV Channels?

    Thank you...
    Much apeciated
    now how do you get increments of 5 minutes for recording rather than 30.. IE I want to record 5 minutes before the start of a show then for an hour and ten minutes so I have a 5 minute buffer either side ... it seems this is not an option for record from line in

    You can always try, select any window, turn off the Media Portal, change the ID of the selected one to the desired one (plugin) and check.

If you go to an episode and open the options and pick choose artwork then choose episode thumbnail it shows the correct thumbnail and says it is remote. Click on it and it goes local instantly and...

    Good. I am pleased that that is now working for you. :) If you have ever looked at MP debug log files, you may have noticed that apparent errors are not rare, but these are "errors" that do not affect the functioning of the product. (It is not desirable to have these errors in the log file, as it misleads users, testers, and...

    Well, currently the plugin shows the sun/moon times in user's local time. As you said, It would require to add time zone parameter to the profile. I'll try to add this option in the next version. PS: please use official thread
