    nice video, its a bit dark but apart from that shows very well lots of the functions mp has.

    thanks for sharing.

    Great video. I'm showing this to a friend to give him an idea of why I'm building my HTPC.

    Which theme are you using? It looks a little like StreamedMp which is what I'm using but different.

    And if you could maybe please explain how you got Huludesktop to work with multishortcut. I can't even find the executable file for hulu. Its driving me bananas.

    How do you configure your skin to have the menu in the middle?? Mine is off to the right-hand side with StreamedMP.

    Also, where did you get your Hulu background?

    wicked nice setup; hopefully I'll have enough patience and time to tinker with mine to get some similar effects :)

    I'd be grateful if you could post a quick rundown list of the plugins/addons/3rd party, if any you used that were "advertised" in your video.
    (dont worry about hyperlinks, don't wanna take up your time, and google can usually find em pretty fast XD)

    thanks.

    I didn't use the BasicHome screen. and I made the Hulu background myself.
    how did you solve the automatic refresh rate change for Bluray and DVD?
    in the General Tab in MP config, there's a option that you can use the Dynamic refresh rate changer to change the refresh rate according to the material.

    I'm using StreamMP skin along with MovingPicture, MP TV-series, TMT's MediaCenter plug in, MultiShortcut (for Hulu desktop & BeyondTV), and MyNetflix.

    Thank you both for your good and very detailed advice. I think I will try to go for the x86 install.

    I compliment you on the thoroughness of your investigations. (y) Unfortunately, I don't have any ideas what the problem might be. :( Perhaps someone else will post with some suggestions. :unsure: -- from CyberSimian in the UK

    OK....perhaps impatient of me I know, but went for a full reinstall....and now up and running once more. Have no idea what was at the root of this problem....still wondering if it may've been due to a Win11 update earlier this week?

    here is a small update: it is probably not due to the Windows update. I ran a new transmitter scan and got the same result. MP no longer starts. Then I got the fuse back and everything works again. A simple reinstall of MP does not bring a solution. Maybe I should reinstall MP from scratch. However, I need a lot of time for this...
