    Just wanted to say that this is a truly excellent plugin for ATV! Keep up the good work. Would be great if this could be expanded for movies too :).

  2. smoldersonline Says:

    This plugin also works perfect on a Mac Mini equipped with (ATV) BackRow. Thank you very much!

  3. MILE Says:

    Great plugin…! Any chance of an international version or at least a few localizations…?! I’d be glad to help out with German translations for the start…! :)

  4. ucijoker Says:

    MILE - The localization functionality has been implemented and will be part of the next release.

  5. MILE Says:

    Whoohoo…thanks fpr the info…! And for your efforts as well…!! :)

  6. smoldersonline Says:

    “the next release”……, this one is already close to perfect. I look forward to see how you implement movie support. Any idea on a release date?

  7. MILE Says:

    Oh and another thing — please don’t get this wrong…but how about having someone create a nice icon…?! One that fits the GUI of the ATV a little better…?! There’s worse than a big shiny glassy S of course, but just doesn’t “feel right”…for me at least ;)

    Anyway, looking forward to the next release…! :)

  8. magu Says:

    I agree with MILE.

    Moreover, I would like to see something like a way of setting up automatic scans of my folders for new TV info, so I don’t have to bother scanning manually everytime I get a new episode onto the ATV.

    But the icons could have some more work on, definitely!

    GREAT PLUGINS!

  9. MILE Says:

    Oh yes, I totally second that…!! Having “Movies” be like a watchfolder or so and scanning it for new entries would be way cool…!! You see, there’s always room for improvement… ;)

    Hi,
    Sapphire is my “One to rule them all”- plugin! It’s the best. I use it all the time. There is almost no reason to use NitoTV. Sapphire actually runs more stable than the latter.
    Two things would be nice though (besides supporting movies):
    One location to store all artwork and covers and
    if folders could have pictures too.
    Is there a site for feature requests?

  11. ucijoker Says:

    Allfreak - Sapphire already supports pictures for folders. To get this to work, name the image cover.jpg.

    For Example:
    /TV Shows/Heroes/Season 1/cover.jpg
    /TV Shows/Lost/cover.jpg
    /TV Shows/24/cover.jpg

    We do have a site for feature request (and bug reports) - it is located here - Report a Bug

  12. MILE Says:

    Hey, didn’t you guys mention bringing us some news about the next release at the end of the week…?! Meaning last week…?! Which has now ended…!? ;)

  13. ucijoker Says:

    MILE - The week wasn’t over for us yet! Here’s the Beta 4 Preview - Enjoy
