Re: Prevue Emulation HELP!!!!

To Tin and/or AriX, Is there piece of software that will allow a Windows user (like me and others), to view/edit the contents of the PREVUE.adf file? I'd like to copy the PrevueC font from the PREVUE.adf file and try to make an OpenType or TrueType font out of it. I have found a software on CNET's ...

Re: Alternate CC logo

The original symbol (which is the TV with the tail at the end) is a registered trademark of the National Captioning Institute. Prevue must have gotten permission at first to use the logo or they used it without the consent of the NCI and was forced to come up with another logo. So you'll notice that...

Re: Prevue Interactive Reverse Engineering

At a quick glance of the binary file, I noticed that this dump was from a Shaw Cable DCT in Canada. I do recognize some of the text from my cable box as well. I'm surprised they were able to get a dump of this software. I will say that on my box, the TV Guide part is a separate software that is adde...

Re: TV Station Simulator version 2 will be here later!!!

Just to break the seriousness a little...I feel a "cumbaya" moment going on here. :) Okay..I echo the same feeling about this group and the Channel itself. It was a good channel to turn to on those days when there was nothing on. But seeing it crash and how it crashed was so interesting to...

I wanted to let everyone know that I have posted on the Wiki some information on the Config.dat file that explains some of the addtional settings and how they were set.

Re: TV Station Simulator version 2 will be here later!!!

Re: A data file for Prevue Networks, Inc.

I wonder if this is the reason that TV Guide Channel got rid of the double video feeds at the top of the screen when they rolled out the Yellow grid?

Everyone, I wanted to let you know that I am starting to document my researched findings in the Prevue Wiki. Right now it is a work in progress, so if you happen to see it, it looks kind of messy.
