You have an idea how MediaPortal could be improved? Post it in here.
I've gone for a different approach because patching all .thumb properties to use the URL (and work with all existing skins) is not something I can do. So instead what I've done is just added an extra skin property, leaving .thumb as it is. The new property is .Icon and is available as #TV.Guide.Icon #TV.Scheduled.Icon and...

Hi netexplorer
That looks like excellent work. I'm looking forward to trying it out later. :)
I really hope this idea catches on, as it really makes MP more user-friendly.

You will be able to do this with MP2, but it's beyond MP1's capabilities as it involves 2 active players which are not supported.

Problem: Short stuttering when DVB EPG grabbing starts on the DVB Card that is running live TV
Question: Could the second (idle) DVB Card be used instead when the first DVB Card is busy with Live TV or Recording ?
( hoping that this will not cause the short stuttering on Live tV )

I would like to see support to change channels on my external Sat. Receiver. The device I'm using is a usbuirt from www.usbuirt.com. A few of the other pvr software packages already have it... sagetv, gbpvr etc.

Diseqc motor support is a very good benefit, but USALS mode for the motor support would be a huge step forward.

Hi, Great Work. Been itching to test this on my satellite. Can someone post a patch for 1.7 to use USALS. If that is too difficult, can someone clarify what version of the older Mediaportal I should use with the latest USALS patch and what the latest version is>

I've spent the weekend trying to move to Media Portal from Vista MCE.
I truly believe that Media Portal can be the the Holy Grail of the front ends, but IMHO, there are two main areas where it needs significant improvement:
1: My Music. It was the main reason I stuck with MCE, and it still has some usability issues.

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.

I don't think the INFO action should be removed. I really like the fact that I can use F3 to directly go to the info screen. I think it would make more sense to just map the CONTEXT action to the I button on your remote instead of the yellow button.

Is it possible to make a the SVN-update for the TvServer-plugin, and perhaps even for the TvServer an 'upgrade' (like the one for Media Portal itself) so you don't have to un-install and re-install every time there is a new SNV!

Sometimes TV and Radio stations are changing their name. The new name of the stations are in the tuningdetails, but Mediaportal gives no information about it.
Suggestions:
1. After a channel scan there should also be an information about channels with new names.
2. Maybe a tab where all channels are listed with different names...
