Have a look at this entry;

in short, it wouldn’t help on extenders, and it’s not available to developers yet.

I don’t know if you will see this but I am curious if the addition of Flash for Internet TV in Windows 7 MC does that give us any ability of adding Flash in easier/better ways, or allow support of extenders?

Great post. If you wish to listen to BBC Radio on the iPhone – I strongly recommend BBC Streams – it is easily the quickest and most reliable way to listen to BBC Radio on the iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch and it’s free at BBCStreams.com.

Hi, I came across this post while looking for help with Microsoft Silverlight. I’ve recently changed browsers from Google Chrome to Mozilla Firefox 3.1. Now I seem to have a problem with loading websites that have Microsoft Silverlight. Everytime I go on a site that requires Microsoft Silverlight, my browser freezes and I get a “npctrl.dll” error. I can’t seem to find out how to fix the problem. Any aid getting Microsoft Silverlight to function is greatly appreciated! Thanks

Hi Martin,

it’s quite easy to create a plugin to add your own content. There are instructions here;

http://www.milliesoft.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=62:tunerfreemce-plugin-creation&catid=4:tunerfreemce&Itemid=18

in your case, I think that there is only one “program” you want to add, which is for the Live TV. To get the code to pick that up you can create a local xml file with the appropriate content in it and point the plugin to that. If you get stuck, e-mail me and I can help. Please send the plugin when it is done and I can add it to the site for others to use too.

How can I add extra “channels” ? I would like to be able to use Windows Media Center to let my children watch Smile of a Child TV on the television as we cannot afford satellite tv.

Thanks for alerting me to that. I hadn’t seen it before. Looks really good. I’ll bear it in mind for future.

Hi. There is a online service that could probably be used to convert on-the-fly the flashvideos in avi format for viewing. Check http://vixy.net. Maybe you can make an arrangement with them for the service in tunerfreemce… …

Btw I’m interested in adding portuguese channels to your app. There are a few portuguese sites that could be used for the content.
Please send me an email if you’re interested and in guidelines in the best way to colaborate with you.

Best regards.
