Chris Laniers Blog announced an update to the MCE (NOT BTV), web guide add-on:

Set manual recordings and adjust the settings of scheduled recordings
Access to Music, Pictures and Videos
PocketPC and Smartphone enabled EPG
Localized languages include: Danish, Dutch, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Norwegian, Spanish and SwedishOf those features, I would like to see the following for BTV/BM:
1. Homepage provides quick access to recent and upcoming recordings
2. Adjust the settings of scheduled recordings
3. Access to Music, Pictures and Videos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
4. Access your actual HTPC which means live scheduling without delays
5. PocketPC and smartphone tv guide - or better yet: how about a mobile phone enabled tvguide service like uguide (http://www.uguidetv.com/index.html) where you can set up recordings with your phone, receive daily (or regular) recommendations for TV programs that match your watching preferences, easy to navigate and read (on your phone screen) tv guide, and favorite channels list.
Whew, that would be really nice :smile:
