Mailing List Archive: Newbie to the list

I was just strolling about on Freshmeat tonight when I found this project. I don't really need a set-top-box; I won't be getting any traditional cable TV where I'm going. (See http://www.CounterMoon.com)

But at some point the project and mine will cover a lot of mututal territory. I intend to use IRMan (with IrManager) to control the TV/VCR/DVD/Satellite, using an OnScreen Display, and also control various fans and check temperatures, etc from the same machine.

I'm having some trouble visualizing the whole thing. Maybe my attempts to help with your project will help.

The "Tv Guide" function...does it only work in UK? I'm gonna be travelling, but not that far. :)

I don't want to hear news from Isreal until the news contains the words
"Bullet", "Brain", and "Arafat".

no the tv guide is XMLtv which is a very very cool app that includes a
backend app that grabs tv listings for mostly every input source from the
US, UK, Canada, Germany, and Austria. It also grab images and content about
the show if available. It's very very cool. A frontend can then fill a
database of choice (our case is mysql).
