You have an idea how MediaPortal could be improved? Post it in here.
Hiya all Can we get audio options for DVD playback....like Prologic, DTS, DD etc? These options are available in PowerDVD, would be nice to switch them on in MediaPortal too.

MP1 MP2 album art files DE
Have to disagree with you all, explorer automatically looks in a folder for "folder.jpg" and if it finds it, will use it as the folders icon. If the directory contains images, it will give you a small preview of up to 4 of the images as the folders icon, but thats not the same thing. Many programs follow the "folder.jpg" standard...

Thanks but not quite there Thanks for the link. I tried Paragon Virtual CD and Virtual CD 5 and this is by far the best. Still not as nice as XBMP where you can browse straight into BIN files. Also tried plaing a movie from a BIN using Media Portal and it crashed the player :( Steddyman

I'd like to see a TV tuner setup wizard. Should walk through XMLTV setup, channel selection, audio input selection, etc. At the very least, the channel numbers (not just the station names) should be imported into the database instead of having to be added manually.

How about a "return to current time & channel" for those who may be browsing the TVGuide, and find themselves hours or days ahead of the current schedule. Possibly the "Home" Key?

Currently you always get the screen that shows your shares when entering My Music, My Pictures etc. When only 1 share exists this is of no need, you could enter that share directly.

MrMario64, brilliant idea! Thankyou for implementing this. May i ask if you are midwya through one playlist and change to another, does the program 'remember' where you were in the previous playlist? ie: if you switch back to the original playlist does it start from the beginning again?

MP1 MP2 My Pictures DE
I think the selection of fades used in Pinnacle PhotoDVD is very nice. They have: FADE TO BLACK, FADE FROM BLACK as well as a nice ALPHA BLEND FADE between pictures. I think the alpha blend is something like 33% each 'step', which almost like a morph between pictures which are similarly framed and of the same subject. eg: if you...
