I also have trouble to get the External Display plugin working with the Shuttle SG33G5M. I don't want to use the MCE vfd plugin because of the limited output.

is there any progress to get the Shuttle SG33G5M VFD to work with Media portal?

Did either of you find a suitable driver to use? I have played around with it a bit but can't get anything working. I know that it is using a USB connection, and that it is a VFD (20 columns, 1 row) but can't find a model number or anything.

Has anyone had even limited functionality?

No, with the external display plugin there is no driver that works. only the MCE plugin is giving some output, but not alot. you only can see which menu you are in. if it can be changed to what's your selection you have it's going to be alot better so u can leave your tv off if you want to play some radio/music. maybe there is a way to customize the MCE plugin?

Where did you find the MCE plugin? I had a look around and couldn't find it. I suppose some output is better than nothing! What language are the modules written in? I would be interested in tinkering around in the source code.
