This has been eliminated in V7 when playing back on SageTV Media Center or SageTVClient in Windows and also when playing back on a media extender regardless of the server platform.ĭirectShow demux filter for handling MKV, MP4 and FLV media types If you've been using SageTV, then you know about the 'pause' that will occur when watching Live TV and one show ends and the next begins.

It's not intended as a way to run an XBMC skin inside of SageTV and have the full functionality of SageTV available instantly (although with some XBMC skins, nearly the entire UI is usable, just some functionality is limited). This feature is more for demonstration purposes to show off what the V7 animation system can do and as a tool for creating a starting point for developers that want to convert an XBMC skin into a SageTV STV. XBMC also has very limited PVR functionality, of which only a few XBMC skins support so this area will also be lacking. The translator will insert some of this default functionality, but not all of it. SageTV STV files, on the other hand, do completely define the UI functionality in them. The main difference is that XBMC skins are just 'skins' and don't really define the functionality of the UI in all cases. Some of them can be corrected by STV developers with minor tweaks but others require more effort. There are also various limitations to this as well while nearly all graphical capabilities should be functional, there are a few things that do not translate properly due to differences in design between SageTV and XBMC. There are requirements for this to work properly and those will be outlined elsewhere. XBMC skin files can now be loaded into SageTV just like any SageTV STV. Support for automatic translation of XBMC skin.xml files into SageTV STVs There's already a solid list of plugins and this will grow quickly as developers outside of the private beta group now gain access to contributing to the list of plugins. From within the user interface, plugins can be installed and managed with ease. With V7, using plugins and customizations for SageTV is a snap. One of the most powerful features of SageTV is its developer community. Online Plugin Repository with automated installation/removal of plugins from within the user interface We're still in the process of tweaking this so user feedback is important in this area. With the new animation system in V7 we're also able to put more 'bling' into the user interactions via reflections, 3D transformations and multiple levels of animations. There has been many complaints over the years about the UI looking dated and we believe we've addressed those concerns. We’ve seen how Google’s developer efforts are designed to stimulate innovation across the web, and as developers have played a core role in the success of SageTV, we think our shared vision for open technology will help us advance the online entertainment experience.We've redesigned the entire user interface for SageTV. By teaming up with Google, we believe our ideas will reach an even larger audience of users worldwide on many different products, platforms and services. And as the media landscape continues to evolve, we think it’s time our vision of entertainment management grows as well.

We're also now thrilled that Google let us open source the SageTV platform! The source code is now available on GitHub. We’re thrilled to announce that SageTV has been acquired by Google.
