Now I like the idea of using messages to allow for other languages. (Although I am English and by definition think everyone speaks English, which surprisingly they normally do!). What I "don't like" is that I can't add to the languages xml easily. What I have done previously is to put the strings into my own XML config so at least...

Hi guys - just had an idea, though I am not a code monkey! How about getting MP to report it's system config in to your forum profile automatically? Just entering your forum uname and pword and it'll populate the system config fields automatically. This might help with some of the bug fixing too. Not sure weather this should...

Small simple suggestion, for "ease of niceness" for newcomers setting up MediaPortal. TV channel scanning is known to take quite a bit of time. There's a progress bar, but no real way to guess how long it'll take ("paint drying" in some cases). This could be a nice touch with new installers:

Hey there last week I rearranged my radio channel list and came across an idea. What about displaying the respective group with all the channels belonging to it but that all on the all channels view. As for now you have to decide whether to see a certain group with its channels or to see all channels. I would like to suggest to...

MP1 MP2 PIN on Radio please DE
Hi, I use the radio function for streaming video content - I also have kids, would it be possible to have the PIN feature found in Videos & music available for video channels. Even better, could the Radio feature be duplicated and 'customised specifically for streamed video (e.g. My WebVideo) - with the PIN feature included. So...

There are many posts about the problem displaying images nicely in a skin when they can be of varying sizes and shapes.

Hi! At the moment a MediaPortal listcontrol will make the text in the listcontrol as wide as the listcontrol, if the textYOff/textYOff2/textYOff3 is not the same. This is to make multi-line lists available, and it works fine that way. Where it doesn't work fine, is when you want different textYOff/textYOff2/textYOff3 values...

Hi, I was thinking about a audio-only instance of MP. Pass an argument, say "audioonly" to the main program and load just the nessecary for playing (net-shared) audio. This way i could run a lightweigth instance of MP, when i only want to listen audio. My changes in DB, playlists etc will be remembered and usable in normal MP...

MP1 MP2 My several wishes DE
Here is the list of features I'd like to see implemented in MP. 1. Display list of video/audio files using internal tags (if available) instead of real file names. Many video files have real movie name embedded. Using this info would improve IMDB search as well. 2. Make media info available for viewing. Similar to this: MediaInfo...

it would be nice to have a forum part where we can have place for up-to-date channellists. I know there are pre-programmed channellists but they seem not to do a lot or it is just not to clear on how to use it. My idea is to make a wiki page for all countries and cities where one can download the needed channellists without the...

Right now you can create a playlist that must be named "folder.m3u". There you can put your wavs and they will be played on slideshow. Though not with fitting slideshow speed which would be not that easy to implement to MP in my opinion. But hey, it's a start ;-) Maschine

When viewing music or movies in any icon mode, MP splits the list of files up into multiple pages. When you click on the down arrow from the last page of files it plays a file with a highlighted icon the mouse isn't pointing at. Instead it should do nothing since the down arrow should be disabled.
