Snapstream’s TiVo-like software, which we reviewed recently, has been updated to version 3.4.1 and given a new name: Beyond TV. The new version includes a number of features Andy wished for in our review, including a on-screen program guide during live TV. From the release notes, the changes include:
Beyond TV name change! Canadian program guide support Mouse support SmartSkip™ Search program guide (in the ViewScape™ interface) On-screen program guide while watching TV New conflict resolution screen Smaller OSD for trackbar (while pausing,
rewinding, etc.)Settings screens (in the ViewScape™ interface) ‘New’ indicator (in the ViewScape™ Video
Library)Better 16×9 Support — stretching for PAL
usersWMV Recompress 2-Pass IR Blaster Code Database for the USB-UIRT
and Actisys IR-200LScreensaver feature (dims screen after certain
