This is very cool and will be very useful, especially the on/off status in helping to script commands for turning the box on or off.
Are there any plans (or even possibilities) of extending the interface to let it control the box (i.e. play, pause, on/off etc.)?
Thanks

There has been some creative uses for this already including audio leveling depending on the channel being watched.

couple words about plugin.
Hi Everyone,
First Of all
I'd like to thanks personally to Jon00 for considering my ideas as useful and creating this plugin. (I hope I wasn't to pushy).
I had some ideas how to interact with Skybox, but there was not status control and I couldn't handle with my V.B. knowledge to make it.
And here we have it...
By end of the week I will share all my ideas on this forum with explanation, hopefully I'll inspire others.
Briefly: volume leveling, switching TV power/output when really your program start, changing sound field for certain programs and few other with combining XMLTV and voice announcement

Thanks Jon - this has been on my list of things to try for quite a while. Just sent a little Paypal thank you :-)
Any chance of it being able to get data from more than one Sky box ? I have three One is the main Sky HD box, one is the multiroom box and I use another dedicated to radio channels for the whole house audio. Getting data from all of them would be great.

I'll take a look. Would these be connected to one PC or individual PC's?
