[mikejaner]

Yes, web service!!

[ckron]

I concur. Web service would be really great!!!

[ravenray]

Ok, Here are my suggestions.

1) Away to put my episodes in seasons.
2) Play VCD's.
3) A way to modify the UI's in all menus.

Do ya think people want to do remote scheduling???

Unfortunately I am not interested in that. I know Frey is though.

Anybody wanna take on the Media MVP? I would love to have mine work just like a client.

In addition to the weather module, I would like to see a movie theater guide for theaters near my location (by zip code). Show the theater, the movie, and the start times.

This would be a great feature. I haven't seen this done before. Maybe it could be a mlbdude exclusive?

Along with this and Weather there are a few other features found in MyHTPC I can't wait to get integrated such as contact info imported from Outlook.

i stuck this in a seperate thread but should have stuck it in here really but i'd love to have a dvd catalog browser with information extracted from dvdprofiler and converted to .my files.

in a perfect world i'd be able to search my clooection by title, actors or genre, select the movie that i want to play and then a box would pop-up and ask to please insert disc #37 (or somesuch pre cataloged number) and then it would autoplay.

i pretty much do this right now by sleeping sage and opening up dvdprofiler so that i can figure out which binder (i keep all of my dvd's in 200 tab binder folders) a particular dvd is stored in. exit dvdprofiler, wake sage back up and play away

adding that catalog directly to sage would be awesome though especially from the WAF perspective.

A way to simulate a Tivo's Wishlist functionality. I posted my idea for one possible way to do it here. It's an expansion of another users request. Their post remimded me I've been meaning to post/request this for a while. So I gave a rough listing of possible ideas/concepts I was looking at. Hopefully someone more skilled can carrying them thru all the way.

I would love alphabetical "virtual" folders fot the library. Although, it seems impossible..............

You CAN do Outlook contacts with myHTPC, but I can't seem to find the info on the myHTPC site. Must have been lost when they got hacked.

I have the files on my server at home. I can email them to you if you want. PM me with your e-mail, and I'll send them over Tuesday. (maybe earlier if I can find a broadband connection this weekend. VNC via dialup sux)

Updated the first post with the current work-list in case anyone is interested.

Keep the requests coming.

P.S. I am surprised no one took me up om my offer to expose the necessary data for the MVP .

[Crashless]

MVP! MVP! MVP! MVP!

That would be sooo great.

[pcuoco]

Have you tried contacting sub or SHS about the MVP options?

[list=1][*]I want MVP support[*]I want a wishlist[*]I would like to see better control of the video and audio decoders much like radlight has but intergrated [*]I want to get the music jukebox to work with more than just mp3s, do variable rate, and have more visualizations[*]I would rather see a DVD ripper added than a compresser it would be very nice for pvr 350 users(they can still use their sound card for audio to get AC3 audio playback)[*]I would like to see member profiles so more than one person can watch a show before it is set to be deleted[*]I would like to see the end of the properties file modifications and to be able to control all this in Sage[*]Also a notification of when the guide data has switched and manual recording will be incorrectly scheduled[/list=1]

Just thought I would clean up my list and add one thing to it

[mlbdude]

Any comments or suggestions before I get this ready for beta?

As a downside, I wrote the data extractor in C# so .Net will be required to use this. However, all the extractor does is parse the XML from an HTTP address and create a text file that I can easily read with Studio so we might be able to get someone to write a new extractor in C++ or even Java. If anyone is interested let me know and I will specify the format and other requirements.
