Plugin: Encoder Names

[JREkiwi]

Posted a SageTV V7 port of BobPhoenix' encoder names import. The original discussion was here.

This plugin allows you to change the display name of the encoders in the Parallel Recording Schedule.

John, your link takes you to the new thread form. Bob's original thread is here.

Thanks for porting this to v7, I had not gotten around to it yet. Someone had ported a v0.6 a couple of days before your v0.7 port. Is there any difference in the two?

Thanks.

Thanks, fixed the link. The 0.6 version wasn't a port, it was just pointing at the old download. Functionally it worked OK. This one fixes some themes and fonts that weren't linked correctly in the configuration panel and installs into the SageTV7 directory.

Would it be possible to enhance this plugin so that the Encoder name was changed in all places within Sage (and or your PC) and not just within the parallel encoding view?

Or would you have to do this in the Driver properties - I am worried that doing this today will cause problems. And where would one change the name of the HDHR since they don't really have drivers as far as I can tell.

I'm doing some other changes to the plugin, so I'll have a look at that too.
