I can add features to the core easily now. Scripting is already working, in fact, the
current development versions contains a 3-screen skinned, scripted and animating GUI.
It also supports realtime contrast/brightness adjustments and, for experimental purposes,
a grayscale feature (I can't think of a practical use for this).
About the support for radio's. I won't support a particular piece of hardware.
It will be hard for me to obtain a specific piece of hardware, and also important,
I'm not the most wealthy person on earth ;)
What I do support is an extensive API to interface different modules.
These modules, or plugins, will handle the support for a radio-tuner or some other piece of
hardware/software. But for this part of the project, it is yet too early to decide.
I will try to implement what I currently have ofcourse (although it's a
Pinnacle USB P.O.S. radio/tv/dvb tuner ;))
Right now I'm trying to focus as much as I can on this project again.
Although don't expect a beta for the next couple of weeks. But I'll be working hard on it.
This thread is far from being dead. It was sleeping.. I just had a busy time, thats all.
Also, keep an eye on the wiki, it tells a lot about the current state and features!
It gets updates from me regulary.
Hope you guys don't give up on this project. I promise it will be worth it.
I'm an 'old-skool' kind of person. I like fast running, optimized code.
And I'll try everything to make it fast as possible. It might have a little less to offer than a
Flash-based environment graphically-wise, but otherwise it will be feature rich enough to
compensate.
