I agree 100 %, and I believe I gave asked Chemelli regarding this. As you point out, this is might be already possible by using different IRSS tool, but it is not as easy as it should/could be. I like the type of approach that the Generic Remote Plugin uses.

Hi, Yes its the external USB version (the one that gets power from the USB Port). I am using the latest BDA driver on Nebula's site. With DigiTV its fine, but in Media Portal its quite unstable. Last night I was watching TV and the picture froze for about 10 seconds every 30 seconds or so, then the whole PC froze after 30...

MP1 MP2 MP Experience DE
Indeed, constructive criticism will make for a better product. Suggest 1 does matter. After all, MP is a computer application. One might want to watch TV whilst doing other work on the system. Then maybe switch again to FS later and then Windowed mode later. I really can't see a problem why 1 can't be implemented. All other...

The following is related to MyVideo - not to MovingPictures. Sometimes on update to the latest revision of MP we have to create a new database for video - if it is specified in release notes that old DBs cannot be used. It is not a problem: - if you have 10-20 movies (but I have > 300); - if IMDB grabber works properly...

AW: Re: Face recognition Yes, would be nice - I think the Pictures part is one of the weakest parts - there had been some additions, like playing cameramovies, DB support, but altogether it's more or less just browsing the pics as they are on the Storage... maybe the combination of an external application for piucturesDB and a...

Hi! After the new loading screens for MediaPortal arrived, it takes ages to load the configuration dialogue over an RDP connection. There should be a checkbox or an option to disable the animated loading window. This is not crucial, just an annoyance :) Thanks, Zappza

I think the proposal is good and would help making the interface more userfriendly. But I wouldn't expect it to happen before the 1.1.0 final is released, due to the current feature-freeze.

MP1 MP2 [Music] Play CD button DE
IMHO the label "Play Disc" does not fit to all other labels. To be consistent to all other labels it should be renamed to a simple noun, something like only "Disc". Or all other buttons are needed to be renamed to e.g. "Watch TV", "Listen Music", etc... ;) :sorry: ...for my statement :P

I take the point that Mediaportal is an HTPC app but I wonder how many people also run it windowed. I use twin displays and run Mediaportal windowed, or full screen, on one monitor. For me it would be a plus because I am always doing something else on the PC while watching - I rarely, if ever, use Mediaportal as a standalone 'TV' app...

Why should it be skinnable? It is only for debugging purposes and skinning it would: 1) make code more comlex 2) create even more overhead Video / audio bitrate -> that info is not available in EVR renderer, so providing it is pretty hard (not impossible, but considering the pros I would say not worth it) CPU usage might be a good...
