MP1 MP2 To-Do list DE
Hi Goosey, The todo list is in the MediaPortal/docs folder under Programs/Team Mediaportal. It contains the todo Frodo has in mind for the app... Keep posting your ideas, though, as they may get into the list, for future development, or someone else may take up the job and create a plugin..

We can start one by incorporating Cassini into MP and develop C#.Net web pages that can interact directly with our C# code... What I was planning is to create a new type of plugin: Services. That way we can incorporate Web Server, FTP, WebServices, etc... Something I wanted to coordinate with Frodo!

MP1 MP2 Versioning scheme DE
You're right, of course. I was thinking of something lighter for now. Let me use a scenario to explain : some newbie sticks a TV tuner in its PC, grabs the latest-and-greatest mediaportal binary, then comes to this forum saying "nothing works, help". Forum users could then say "well, with your kind of hardware/software, try first...

MP is pretty cool, true. I meant all sort of transitions not only fade effects. Maybe I find somewhere a list of transitions. But if you have ACDSee, it gives you an idea of what I mean. Or magix foto on cd. tomtom21000

Hi, Not that important, but: My request is that the function of these two buttons in the osd should be changed to navigate to the next / previous file in the music module. Don't know if it is a bit complicated to change that, because the osd is the same as in tv or video module, where the current functionality makes sense...
