Re: What *new* features do you want?

So if I want my list on top, I should repeat the items over and over?

Closed captioning
PIP (integrated with closed captioning)
Ability to use BM plugins in BTV (like DVD Library)
Firewire recording
fixes for BM
Showstream to internet and devices
PPC remote
channel view/search by name
user assigned keyboard/remote shortcuts

I doubt this will happen, but just in case
Honestly, how about you generate a list and email registered users to prioritize the top 10 on that list, everyone gets one vote and you rank them accordingly? (unless you can do that online somehow)

Re: What *new* features do you want?

My personal list would go like this:

1. BTV/ BM integration. Even if they were still seperate programs, I would like to have the same look, feel and functionality in both. i.e skinability, the ability to use plugins like the PIN module take for instance the navigation... in btv the select bar will go "round the world" from teh top to the bottom. In BM, it stops

2. BTV parental controls. The PIN module works great for BM, but I want to protect my TV shows as well

3. Fixes for the music navigation in BM

4. I would like to see a HUD and info screen in BM DVD playback that looks and feels like the BTV HUD

5. BTV Wish lists. When a show isn't in the next two weeks of EPG data, you can't set it up to record. Also, I would like to record all NFL games from my favorite team...

Re: What *new* features do you want?

c. HD media client running basic BTV functionality (e.g. access most BTV functions from a Zensonic z500 or similar)...functionality tbd...perhaps webadmin capability??

Re: What *new* features do you want?

My tuppence worth:

1. DVB Support

2. Ability to play all episodes of a show - e.g. all Scooby Doo to keep the children happy.

3. Ability to sort alphabetically in the recorded shows area.

4. Native XMLTV import support (not grabber)

5. Bonding of channels (e.g. channel 3 on antenna and channel 103 on cable are recognised as the same channel for scheduling recordings).

Re: What *new* features do you want?

Have season/episode data and sort by season/episode.

Parental control

QAM recording

Haven't HD recorded yet. When recording shows on all channels, would like to specify HD only shows instead of SD (is that possible now?).

Re : What *new* features do you want?

I agree with ZetaVu, that reposting the same features over and over isn't very productive... Better to make a list first, then have people vote on it for the top issues...

As for my request, not already mentionned before:

- Add an advance settings menu within the viewscape (for things hidden in the Web admin or in the .XML files).

- Add a Conflict resolution screen for shows that will not be recorded (there is one when adding a new recording job, but the next time the Guide data are updated you might lose some shows).

- Add an auto-tune only (where it will change to the channel on the STB without actually starting to record).

- Update the internationnal versions that are still at 3.6...

- Allow for true BTV pluggins, with the possibility of adding custom screens within the Viewscape, rather than only addons...

- Allow some kind of "Network encoder" (as a competitor calls them) if you are not planning to develop some dvb/QAM/firewire recording "in house"...

No, please request the feature even if it is listed. This poll list will only be open for a few days. After that, I'm thinking of making a poll of only the "popular" feature request.

BTW, You guys are doing a great job of staying on topic, thanks! It greatly simplifies the tallying!

I have updated the list to all the ones currently posted. I consolidated a few "similar" request into bigger ones. If you already posted your request, and feel it is not properly represented please PM me.

Thanks,
-Brett

After seeing these listed, I kind of like the idea, add my vote for these also. It wouldn't be the top of my list, but they'd be nice to have

Re: What *new* features do you want?

* DVB Support
* External recorder (this would allow DVB / Firewire / QAM etc... support if not handled natively by BTV)
* Channel centric logic : only one "NBC" should be displayed in the guide, even if NBC is available on more than one source with different channel numbers.
* User channel numbers
