You have an idea how MediaPortal could be improved? Post it in here.
I would like to see a ListControl which can be used in a Horizontal way. I'm currently trying to re-create the Home screen of the default confluence skin of XBMC, and I discovered that MediaPortal does not have the ability for an (easy) horizontal List Control. Cheers Michel

This would be good. I use MP on my desktop PC to watch TV while working & have to resize/position when opening. Maybe even a command line option to set a window size for start-up?

Did the "archived TV recordings" feature ever make it into the product? I miss this feature from SageTV - I archived a ton of childrens' TV shows for my daughter which made them safe from being deleted.

I'm not saying it's showing bad quality out of high quality videos all i said was that "out there there's a technology to enhance video quality and i think mediaportal should make use of it" in other words the quality of the video will be more than the original (more than 100%) by the way the use of 100% is wrong in this topic...

No, since if you pack 1920x1080 texture to 2048x2048 texture you will 1) gain no real performance benefit - cached texture is nothing more than a texture in GPU memory 2) will just waste GPU RAM - it will be hard to try to fit textures around the 1920x1080 sized texture What texture atlases is trying to improve is to reduce the...

AW: install plugins in mediaportal I think this is okay, but it should included all the Plugins. Because some Plugins are not listet in this Plugin.

Hi guys - just had an idea, though I am not a code monkey! How about getting MP to report it's system config in to your forum profile automatically? Just entering your forum uname and pword and it'll populate the system config fields automatically. This might help with some of the bug fixing too. Not sure weather this should...

I have a local community station that transmits corrupt EPG data and it can crash the TV service. Certainly a trap for beginners that makes MP look more unstable than it actually is. Just like to see the ability to tolerate bad data without crashing. A second trap for beginners is not setting a static IP even on single seat...

Hi, Setting 0 as zapping value is a totally different story. If you set 0, you cannot change lets say 2 channels ahead. You have to wait for the tuning of the first channel. If you set a value more than 0 MP allows pressing channel up/down buttons multiple times. Unfortunately the minimum value is 1 second. 1s is more than total...

Avalons pause OSD is minimal, but then they also throw in a big semi transparent box with a pause symbol in it. Coincidently, immediately after I posted, I went & had a look at the remote mapping for the info button & added a condition for OSD with an action of Show OSD (counter-intuitively, as that will turn off the OSD if it's...

Hello, not sure if it happends to everyone, but I think it does. The thing is: when you FFWD subtitles don't follow, ther are not speeding up. It would be great if that can be done (in XBMC it's ok). That's the only thing that XBMC does better than MEPO (and I really think the only thing). Not shure how big of job that is...

MP1 MP2 [Videos] New "play" method (1 Viewer) DE
I whole heartedly agree, files in same folder should play all as music already does, the exception for me would be TVSeries, so it would need to be configurable, MP2 is going down this road by design.

Hello guys I think the title is self-explaining. I think it would be smart if mp had an option to close mp prior shuting down / hibernating / entering standby.

Are you asking if Mediaportal can be on Roku, if so, I don't think you will ever see it. MP is based on Windows. You would have a better chance of seeing Mythetv or boxee or some other "linux" based software. If I’m not mistaken the Roku box is linux based.
