Introduction

EvolutionTV supports an open plug-in architecture that enables software developers to create enhancement modules.

The application ships with several built-in plug-ins. Further enhancements are provided by third party plug-ins that are usually free of charge and that can be downloaded from Miglia’s website: http://www.miglia.com/Support/evolutiontv_plugins.html

I.EvolutionTV SDK

A Software Development Kit (SDK) has been made available on Miglia’s website. This SDK facilitates the creation of post-processing plug-ins, eg. plug-ins that will modify a file once it has been downloaded.

More information on the SDK is available on Miglia’s website:

II. Installing Third-party plug-ins

Before installing a plug-in, make sure that EvolutionTV is not running.

2.1 Plug-ins with installers

Some plug-ins have installers, that work just like any other software installation program. You may be asked to enter your administrator password during the installation process.

2.2 Plug-ins without installers

If a plug-in does not have an installer, you will have to proceed to a manual installation. Control-click on the EvolutionTV application and select ‘Show package contents”.

Navigate to Contents > PlugIns and drop the plug-in in the folder. Then restart EvolutionTV .
