You have an idea how MediaPortal could be improved? Post it in here.
I think they said something about this, when I asked about card specific channels and it may be in the works at the moment.

Still listed as a bug in mantis so I dont think there is a way yet. I find its only a problem using WMP10 visualisations, if I use those really basic 'Battery' ones then it runs quite good. Kinda slow to enter or exit fullscreen when they're running though.

I look forward to the addition of LCN. When I get a bit more time I also want to start looking at the souce code and seeing if I can help out. At the moment I've only done C++ and Java, but I'm sure C# isn't too difficult to pick up.

That sounds good, I'm hoping for that. I mean, when you think about what the most common/likely action is, it will be to navigate the files, not to change the view setting. I'd actually like to see all the menu buttons go away to some sub-menu, maybe only visible when you press the "menu" button. That would also leave a lot more...

Hi I use Media Portal mainly for listening to music. As I have tons of MP3s I would like to see a filter tool allowing me to select the files I want. A friend of mine has a Terratec C.A.R. 4000 which allows to filter the files on the HD according to filters. Something in the way: rating = higher than 3 AND year = earlier than...

I am wondering if we can get a box that lists all of the commands for all of the Mediaportal options? Then we can select each one and have the remote learn the command.

Hi, yes they are hardcoded. And no, 'cd' does not implement svcd, vcd, etc. Everything after a keyword is removed. So removal of 'cd' from 'svcd' would lead to 'sv'. Making a external list is a nice idea. Do not know, if one of the coders can implement it. And yes to above '_' and '.' are already replaced with empty spaces...

I want to ask the same question. So let me know if you had any success. I have a machine all set up for MCE, but I can't get my STB to change channels with the MCE remote blaster, so Im considering switching to MP (or maybe Sage). I'd like to know if I need to buy UIRT or not.

I think that a module like that would have very practical utilizations, for example: we can have a “playlist” called “my home” (for those who have cameras at home, to see the kids, etc.), other called “my work” (for those who have cameras at work, like me, to see my little server farm), other called “my transit” to see transit...

WebTV vs. browser launcher Personally I think a WebTV plugin would be much better than a simple browser launch button. For starters, getting a standard browser configured to work right at a 10ft interface level is not the easiest task (of course, this is a problem with general website design often times). I have found Mozilla firefox...
