Nucleus HTPC

Just updated to 1.1.6. A few things that would help:

  • The ability to delete a video (movie, TV show, video) after viewing
  • A notice when an automatic channel skip starts. This will be helpful for when there are false positive commercial detections.
  • On the timeline it's hard to distinguish between content and commercials. I suggest either do as the Channels Developers have and use gray for content and black for commercials or make this configurable.
  • Add support for Library Collections and Personal Sections

I'm thrilled to have the Windows client. Thank you for creating and supporting this Bobby

Are you using all channels or a channel collection?

All Channels



Also noted it's trying to pull in my YTTV TVE channels which I have disabled on this server. Said another way, it doesn't seem to be honoring disabled sources when populating the channel list.

Also interesting is that it is pulling through my other dispatcharr channels (ESPN, CNN, HGTV, FOOD, etc), so seems like it's dropping those that are "duplicate" to what is in another source (even though it's disabled).

I’ll look into why it isn’t respecting disabled sources and hidden channels. Does it do the same on your other channel collections too?

I will add those to the list. Thanks.

Kinda......

You can right click the channel and adjust location or hide the channels also. If you hide the channel is also hides in CDVR. I will have this issue worked out by tomorrow.

I just pushed 1.1.7. Let me know if the downloader works for anyone that was on 1.1.6. Thanks

The downloader worked! :+1:

Thank you.

Are you interested in making this more tablet (specifically, Surface Pro) friendly, or are you just focused on the 10-foot experience?

I have a half built api that was intended to be used with a mobile companion app. I will probably finish it out after I get the bugs and features finished. This is one of those things I would need to really think out to make it useful.

Is the Surface Pro an ARM based CPU?

Honestly, I never even thought about touch screen friendly navigation. I will look into mapping touch screen controls into it. I have plans on releasing an ARM version later on since Snapdragon X Windows might be a big hit with consumers.

The older Surface Pro, including mine, were x64. The latest models are Snapdragon.

@jtanderson I tried testing adding touch gestures to it locally and it broke a few mouse click events. I will set up a development repo and work on adding touch screen support where I don’t break anything in the main repo. Once I get that working correctly, I’ll merge it to the main repo

Don't rush into anything on my account. I would, at most, be a casual user.

I may have missed this. Can I watch a recording as it is being recorded?

I did not attempt to view as recording. If Channels DVR allows you to stream it while it is recording you can, but I do not have a large enough buffer built into Nucleus to do time shifting on live tv. I will add that in a future release, but as of now, live tv time shifting is not supported.

What about picking the recording (being recorded) to watch, instead of the live channel being recorded?
Channels DVR allows that and so does DVRDesk.

Yes, what chDVRuser said. I am not looking to time shift live tv, only recordings.
If not this is fine.
Your program work great, thank you for sharing.

I'll look into the endpoints being used. Thanks
