File Release Notes and Changelog
Notes:
Welcome to the installer based version of the MediaMVP BTV3 Interface for the
Hauppauge MediaMVP. The files contained within are based on the 'mod'(s) that
were done by Keith, Splint, texmex and other's of the Snapstream and SHS
forum's. With the advent of the Sourceforge site, we should see more
mods/changes/bug fixes to this installer and the included files.
Hopefully this installer will help to allow more folks to actually use, and add
to, the mods!
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Run the installer and the files will be copied to the Hauppauge MediaMVP
folder. Also the needed images from SnapStream Beyond TV 3.5 will be copied, if
it is installed into the default folder.
To get up and running, edit the user_config.js file in your
C:\Program files\Hauppauge MediaMVP folder. Enter your serial key provided to
you by SnapStream. Please note and please respect, according to SnapStream, you
need to have a client license for each MediaMVP using this mod (you can't enter
these anywhere though).
If the MediaMVP server and this mod have been installed to another machine on
your network, then you have to edit the btvMachine variable in user_config.js.
If you use a password to enter the webinterface, you need to enter that
password in the btvPassword variable in user_config.js.
We recommend that you have an uptodate version of Internet Exploere with all
service packs and updates installed, as the code relies on it.
We hope you enjoy using this skin.
