BTV 4.0 download?

[Kingjamez]

I see that BTV 4.0 is live for signup now but don't see the link to download it. Is it just to early? I'm really eager to try my Fusion 3 out in beyond tv.

I'm eager to try it also. Can someone point me to release notes so I can look at supported cards. I'm afraid the MyHD cards that I own will not be supported but BTV has been working so well for me that I'm ready to get a Fusion card. I just need to verify which cards are supportes so I can get my hardware ready.

Thanks,
Clay

My current computer sever is a POS. I will be upgrading my computer and buying a HD card. I would also like to see the release notes.

There was a post in the blog with the cards that they are currently working with:

Out of the gates, Beyond TV 4 will support several over-the-air ATSC tuner cards. Some of the cards that we’re already testing with our software include:

AVerTVHD A180
(http://www.aver.com/products/tvtuner_avertvhd_mce_a180.shtml#2)
HDTV Wonder
(http://www.ati.com/products/hdtvwonder/index.html)
VBox DTA 151 and USB-A 3560
(http://www.vboxcomm.com/product3.htm)
Fusion HDTV 3
(http://www.fusionhdtv.co.kr/ENG/Products/).

We’ve also been running the software on ATSC reference designs by Conexant and Phillips, so there are probably many other cards that Beyond TV 4 will automatically support.

what do you guys reccomend for a HDTV card?
anyone know if you can used mixed cards, i.e. 250 and an HD card? i heard ****** was having some issues with mixed environments.

You can also add the Dvico FusionHDTV 5 to that list.

I can attest to that my fusion 5 gold works quite nicely, now only if btv supported QAM cause i only get like 2 channels with an antenna of any signal quality over like 70% and they both suck.

I only want 4.0 to get the discount or free upgrade to BM ver X.xx. I don't have an HDTV nor do I see the need for one right now. I simply want better integration and functionality from BM. I will gladly test out beta versions of 4.0 on my HTPC ( I don't have the luxury of a test environment) to see how it functions with my PVR 150 and 250.

Where is the download? I see in the my beta access the download for 3.7 but it says 4.0 there are no downloads. I have a fusion 5 I want to use with this.

Email from friday said "Expect to see the first of these releases in a few weeks, with all of the new features as well as a refreshed full screen interface."

Any update on when we might see the 4.0 Beta, its been almost a month since the the blog entry.

Yeah the suspense is killing me!!! C'mon.........:-)

I doubt it will be any time in the next few days as snapstream and the rest of the greater houston area get bunkered down in preperation for hurricane rita.

How different will the FSUI be from the current version? I ask because I have created and use several skins and will update if need be

stay safe and dry folks.......we can handle the wait


i just ordered the dvico fusion5gold card
which should be here on monday.......so a beta next week would
be fine over here.

also, the JVC SRDVD-100U,
which is based on the IOdata linkplayer2 but with DVI ouput,
is due in about 2 weeks so then i'll be able to stream the HDTV
files down to my TV room.........the stars are starting to align
