Vista MCE integration ?

Recommended Posts

Can this be installed as the default live TV program to be launch from MCE (vista) ?

 

the other folks (Sc+neo) do that - but it does many other things less well. Limited epg is one.

 

So - can I have DVBViewer popup in Media Centre?? Please?

 

 

thanks.

ODSoft multimedia who is delivering the hardware API for Sceneo products has some good relations to Microsoft. They have also worked out UDR for MCE (Universal-DVB-Receiver) together which is another approach to support DVB-S/DVB-C within MCE.

Just wanted to update this thread with some information... More or less important (actually it is not important at all :) ), probably some people want to discuss it anyway...

 

Probably you have heard about DVBSLogic, formerly known as DVBSBridge. It provides a virtual DVB-T BDA driver that gets called by MCE. To lower layer (accessing the DVB hardware), DVBSLogic now provides a data source API with which it would be possilbe to interface MCE (resp. the virtual DVB-T BDA driver) to the DVBViewer engine (also supporting IPTV/DVB-S/DVB-C). Guess this would also be possible via a plugin as the DVBViewer-API provides low-level stuff like tuning and retreiving TS data I believe. Think using the DVBViewer as hardware abstraction engine would be way more stable than going the way through ProgDVB.

DVBSBridge SDK 1.0

Targeted at companies as well as skilled C++ individuals the DVBSBridge SDK will provide them with the unique opportunity to bring digital streaming signal from their devices to Windows Media Center. Cable boxes, settop boxes, IPTV sources - everything that produces transport stream-like signal and can switch channels can be natively integrated into MCE. DVBSBridge SDK comes with set of C++ header files, library, documentation and sample code - everything you need to start development of DVBSBridge compatible source plugins.
