Hi
Just been attempting to download MediaPortal sources as per instructions under "How to write a plugin for MediaPortal"

http://www.team-mediaportal.com/arti..._a_plugin.html

Have installed WinCvs with Python and copied all info into boxes _ Copied and pasted the address for CVSROOT from web so that should be correct.

When I click ok I get following message in WinCvs

cvs -d :pserver;username=anonymous;hostname=cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/mediaportal checkout -P -- mediaportal (in directory C:\mediaportal)

THEN

***** CVS exited normally with code 1 *****

So appears to complete download except when I open the C/mediaportal folder there is nothing in it
Any suggestions what is happening here ?
Thanks
Mike

Hi,

That part is outdated we don't use cvs anymore, but SVN.

Check here: Get sources

The rest of the how to write a plugin tutorial is still correct.

Good luck :wink:

Hi

Thanks a million - thought I was the problem !!

Installed SVN and downloaded all files successfully without slightest problem.

Hopefully someone will update that page so someone else doesn't lose hair trying to use CVS

Thanks again

Sorry for bumping this thread up again... But yes, that would have been nice :-(
