[QUOTE="fake9, post: 83939, member: 20552"] [b]My Installation/Setup experience of MP[/b] Hi Frodo, First of all, people who have never installed a program before, will not be capable installing MP but a minimum of knowledge is a requirement to even touch a pc. So leaving those people aside, basic configuration is simple. 1. What did you have to do before you got MP up & running ? - First of all, a fresh reinstall is considerded the best option. - Most of the installation was straith forward. But digging in the "setup MP" is still neccessary (and a good option for experienced users). - TVguide. Not easy to configur a guide for Belgium (maybe easy for other countries?). Searching different options and finally using XMLTV which needs a user interface because to hard 4 newbies. 2. What could be improved to make install & configuration easier ? I would consider a step by step (like the TV configuration) for all different media, like Music Wizard; Movie Wizard; Photo Wizard; .... And of course the TV guide, but thats difficult because there is no universal (read worldwide) tvguide available. Each country has something different. Maybe a solution in XMLTV instead of the grabbers? Eager to know what other users have to say! Keep up the good work. Tv [/QUOTE]
