You have an idea how MediaPortal could be improved? Post it in here.
did this go anyhwere? I was thinking about the sms style keyboarding for entering text for searches and whatnot instead of the virtual keyboard, on a remote it would be a LOT faster.

It would be nice if it was possible to press the Play key when you are in the IMDB info screen to start that movie. Now that I think of it the Y key to add the video to the playlist also might be usefull.

you can search on the folder allready but not using the mouse. Press F3 while standing on the folder. So all in all it comes down that you need the better mouse support wich is on the todo list.

I'm aware of the sorting and grouping, but is it possible to group by say, genre, and then once you click on the "Electronic" genre, show folders for all of the artists in electornic, instead of one huge list of all electronic music?

MP1 MP2 DVD options DE
It would be good to have the ability to turn on and off closed captions and choose the audio language whilst the movie is playing. In addition have keyboard buttons assigned to each. I think this has laready been asked but preferably have the DVD player as a seperate module. DMAN.

Crickey I must have been drunk! Ok I'll try again. If you have an album of MP3's in a folder and you press F3 to get the CD information and track details etc MP also pulls down the CD cover image. Can we get MP by default to asign the image it downloads to the folder also instead of just the tracks. DMAN.

It would be nice if the internal video player had a smoother fast forward / rewind capability. By this I mean if you fast forward / rewind now it only seems to show the key frames of the file which makes it difficult to accurately get to a certain position in the video file. In addition if you are fast forwarding a file you cannot...

I did a search on this topic but I couldnt´t find that it had been requested previously, so here it goes: Making directorys mergable, or perhaps naming them the same on 2 different harddrives and then when listing the subfolders and files in them. you list what´s in both of them. for example: TV-series. I got a whole bunch of...

And another sketch that can give inspiration for future enhancements Best if the categories could be configurable to the users taste/priority. Best if the "prime time" like 20:15 would be configurable because this is different in different countries. tomtom21000 the sketch is from a sceneo user (marzog)
