I'm not sure where to put this but I couldn't find an existing thread. My favourites are below...

1) Auto Bouqet Maker - Sorts channels into categories

2) OnDemand - Access to BBC iPlayer and ITV player programmes. Hopefully 4OD and Demand 5 can be supported int he future

...what about everyone else?

PS - DOes anyone know a good screenshot plugin?

For screenshots, you can use telnet. See this quide (http://www.world-of-satellite.com/showthread.php?12554-Tutorial-How-to-make-a-screenshot-dump-from-your-satellite-receiver&p=90834&viewfull=1#post90834).

You can also use WebIF, just type your box IP address into your web browser.

Thanks, the WebIF is very easy to use but the pic quality is very grainy.

Unfortunately thats very unlikely to happen.

40D was supported but we removed it due to changes they made which essentially killed the plugin, there is currently no fix and likely wont be one for some considerable time to come.

Demand5 was never officially launched for OnDemand but we did produce a working beta, we decided it was not worth releasing as all content on their servers after august 2012 was DRM encrypted and therefore useless to us as it could not be played via the plugin.

you have to scroll a good way down the list to find it, ignore the ones with .po or .src in the name as these are source files for users who want to help with updates or translations.

For youtube you can use a plugin called mytube but we cant host it on the feeds for licencing reason's. There is a version in the media portal plugin though that should work. As for google no idea sorry.
