The only thing that I don't quite like about this setup is that there's no obvious way for the user (as opposed to a wiki editor) to get to the corresponding Add-on page. This seems OK since we don't duplicate wikitext that will get out of date. moved all the Settings info to the Add-on page and transincluded it in the corresponding PVR/ page. Ned Scott 22:38, 10 October 2012 (EDT) OK, well I went systematically through all various Add-on: and PVR/ pages and tried to normalize as per the setup for PVR/VDR and Add-on:VDR VNSI Client, i.e. I wasn't sure how much over-lap there would be, so if it makes more sense to just have everything on the PVR add-on page and then link directly to that (and not have a sub page here) then we can certainly do that instead. Well, the add-on namespace is mainly for individual add-on entries more than it is for add-on related pages, while the sub-pages of the PVR guide are about both the add-ons and the backends. Argus_TV that should either be merged under PVR, or they should be merged to Add-on: There is also already a category: Category:PVR add-ons - Fiveisalive 17:19, 10 October 2012 (EDT) Shouldn't the individual articles about PVR add-ons be moved into the Add-on namespace? Currently there are a number of pages already in that namespace, e.g. This made the PVR API available to all mainstream XBMC users, although the addons are still to be maintained in a separate repository and not distributed with XBMC releases. Although binary addons were not available, the PVR branch of XBMC started to use these as a structure for having various backends plug-in to a common API structure.ĭuring the development cycle for XBMC 12.0 (Frodo) the merge of the PVR and mainline XBMC branches was approved during the Devcon. With the release of XBMC 10.0 (Dharma) came the addition of the addon framework to XBMC. As this project became more mature it opened the door for skinners to start taking advantage of skinning interfaces for PVR and add them to various XBMC skins. Project student Alcoheca began the fork of what would eventually become the XBMC PVR branch. Serious efforts to create a PVR frontend for XBMC started with a project during Google Summer of Code 2008. These file sources were also part of the XBMC core codebase, so updates to the backend API often broke the integration until XBMC pushed out an update. This did not allow XBMC to be used a true PVR frontend since user still had to view EPG data and schedule recordings via the backend interface. XBMC has long had support for viewing recordings from backend recording services such as MythTV and TVHeadend through the use of specialized video sources that communicate with the backend software. MythTV add-on not yet merged into XBMC PVR Addons Repo, but is available in fetzerch's branch
