Version 1.2 Released.
Latest update, contains several major changes:-
- Layout changed so that Plus Pack replaces PCTV and uses same image button. New and All Recordings have been removed (duplicated in Movies and All media anyway), Record Now feature moved to Guide List page. Reason for change was to enable Plus Pack to work with other skins being produced by other users.
- Removed "Today" button from TV Guide List (sorry...) but replaced with Record Now enabling instant record on selected channel (will also record channels without RSS feed). As the Record Now option is no longer needed on main page this can optionally be switched off with the PlusPackDisplayRecordNow parameter.
- The Record Now button will now only display if it is not currently recording (previously would display even if a recording was in progress) - only if PlusPackDisplayRecordNow parameter is set to display.
- You can now turn off the Weather Forecast link by setting the PlusPackDisplayWeather parameter in the new PlusPack.inc.php file.
- Recording status icon now shows on main menu (next to PlusPlack menu item) rather than on the PCTV page. This allows you to check the recording status on any page.
- Added the URL Encode fix to channel Id
- It will now show programs recorded from the MediaCenter during record on the ShowCenter menu (previously said Unknown) and Videos files with an unknown collection can be played.
- When viewing through browser two extra line breaks have been added to maintain menu alignment
- Confirm recording "OK" button is now selected by default (Was first menu item).
NB If you are upgrading from a previous release of Plus Pack you must clear out the C:\Program Files\Pinnacle\ShowCenter\DocRoot\ShowCenter\Temp directory. ShowCenter caches images here and as some images are now changing the cache must be cleared to allow proper installation.
New Features for your ShowCenter.
The ShowCenter is (IMHO) the best wireless media player on the market. One of it's best features is that it serves all it's content in HTML format and mods can be made quite easily (with a little PHP knowledge).
The ShowCenter Plus Pack is a culmination of features that I have created for my own ShowCenter to suppliment those already provided. A "Plus Pack" button has been added to the existing ShowCenter menu. From here you can view TV and radio listings (UK Freeview listings only, requires internet connection), record programs (requires Pinnacle MediaCenter 300i) and view a five day local weather forecast (requires an internet connection).
Installation is done at your *OWN* risk!.
The ShowCenter Plus Pack is freeware and has been developed completely independently from Pinnacle Systems - no support will be provided by them - you have been warned. As a further warning this software is in beta phase so make sure you back up all files before installation, read the readme.txt file contained in the download for more details.
