Great. With the next pre-release it will scan in .tp files automatically
That's awesome! I read that this is a very active community with the developers! Nice to see it in action.
I can wait until the actual release - I'm a programmer, so I'm weary of pre-releases - just my own paranoia.
BTW - where does one go to see what's included in pre-releases?? 
There is no changelog for the pre-releases. They are released quite frequently, each one to fix some new minor issue that crops up across the whole spectrum. Basically you need to browse and search the forums, or just wait for all of the changes to get rolled up into a new stable release.
Awesome! Looks like ver. 2021.01.15.1649 includes the .tp files now... Hundreds of my recordings from BTV are now appearing in Channels.
