Hi, I have thought for a long time that the radio part of MP lags behind other features. I would love to see a few enhancements, and hopefully the community will be able to help :) First of all, radio is very similar to TV, apart from the lack of a picture, so I think it would be nice for the radio section to look like the TV...

yeh I guess maximizing it as a window is basically it. But it would be good to have it start up like that, of course removing the minimize/close bar bit up the top would be preferred too. Having it pop up when hovering down the bottom is a great idea too.

The Cornerstone scraping engine has zero references to MediaPortal. It does use the NLog library for logging, but that would be easy enough to change or remove. It is licensed under GPL3 so assuming what you want to use it for is under a compatible licences you should be good. Jump on IRC or send me a PM if you'd like to chat a bit...

The setup guide within the GUI (in settings) is perhaps handy one or two times, but most of the time you enter settings it's to calibrate the screen or change something else. I suggest that there's a setting to hide this completely in the Configuration.exe's "general" section. Emph

Hi, It would be great if I could allocate a keyboard action to toggle through layout options. Eg when in my pictures, i would like to be able to press a key to cycle through icons, large icons, list view etc. I could not find a keyboard mapping action in config.exe for this. I would hope this is a very small change? Cheers...

At least the channel protection is on my idea list for the next-gen version. The renumbering based on the client is a bit difficult because we have a central server where all data is stored (which i do not really see that it is going to change).

What about simply adding 5 or 6 checkboxes to each recorded item and then as each person has finished watching they tick their box. This could be enhanced in the configuration by adding a name for each column of boxes, and even setting when a certain number have been ticked it could auto delete
