Where can I get these modules from? And how do I add them? I miss hackmen from tivowebplus. And how big can I make the "bufferhack"? 90 mins would be nice.Originally Posted by Wiked

The Hackman module and documentation for how to install, setup and get it working (as the newer versions require manual configuration) can be found on it's website: http://web.nlis.net/~davehill/hackman/hackman.html (there is also a wiki entry here). The bufferhack utility is documented at the wiki here.Originally Posted by daggo
The wiki documentation provides details about the more complex and risky approach of installing bufferhack.Originally Posted by thomson
There is a far simpler option by which all that you're required to do is copy the 'bufferhack.itcl' script into your TivoWeb 'modules' directory. The buffer size can then be adjusted through the TivoWeb Hackman interface. The original DealDatabase thread no longer provides this file but you can get a copy of the 'bufferhack.itcl' script from within the 'twpFix.tar.gz' file.
The latest versions of bufferhack (including the TivoWeb version above) allows you to specify a buffer size anywhere from 15 minutes to 3 hours, I'd recommend going with about 90 minutes or 2 hours though. One thing to note is that the play bar is still double the size of the buffer, without using the bufferhack the playbar showed a 1 hour time-frame and had a 30 minute buffer. If you decide to go with a 90 minute buffer using the bufferhack, the playbar will now show 3 hours and allow you to play within the 90 minutes of buffered TV.Originally Posted by daggo
Just loaded it and the improvements are great. Everything seems to work really well so far.
One thing that I may just be misusing: Manual Recordings. I used to be able to set a continuous daily manual recording that would just record the same time, everyday, until I told it to stop. In this version you seem to have to specify a restricted period for the recording in field ToDo Repeat. It gives a maximum of 4 months which is quite a while, but I'd rather not have to recreate the recording every 4 months.
Am I missing something? Could be real obvious http://forums.oztivo.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

Select "Yes" for "Use a Season Pass"... this will do what you want. Some guy called John1980 did a lot of work on that TC module... wonder who that could beOriginally Posted by chis

Thanks Thomson
Of course it was simple. Just sat there looking at the Manual Recording apge after posting the message, saw the season pass option and realised that must be it. Silly me!
Great package. Have been using this for a little while now and is well worth the addition.Originally Posted by thomson

Latest bundle now contains an "Update" module (located under the "more..." menu) that allows you to update the TWP distribution without having to use the command line... this method will also maintain your existing configuration files so that local customisations will not be lost.
