First of all - Thanks for contributing to the community

But have to stick with Edalex & Throgwar on this - Why have a whole new development on torrent plugin........as they mention, development ressources could be used in a better way, if side-projects didn't pop up every now and then. If development ressources was consolidated into only one project, maybe the development would last longer.

I see several issues with this project:
-Is it okay for the old developers to "hijack" part of their code/work?
-Mytorrents was well-developed, well bugfixed & tested and supported by quite a large community - 38 thread pages!
-Mytorrent had more features (Watchlist+Skins+documentation on how to add more search engines)

Seems like you are inventing the wheel again:-S

This projects has come off to a nice start(Congratulations, but again it could even end up splitting MePo torrent users into two groups.

Seems like Mytorrents owner Sohvaperuna has discontinued development - In october 2010 he wrote:
Hi! - Anyone willing to continue developing this plugin? I am too busy with my life so I cannot do it at the moment

I do understand that you you are new to C#, and taking over an old project could be difficult - but I really hope, that these to projects can merge into 1!

How to do this, is up to you & Sohvaperuna - as an end user, I can't decide which leg i'm gonna stand on...........Maybe the old project should marked as obsolete and thread closed?!?

Therefore I choose to use neither at the moment, although I really want to support and contribute with further development(although I cannot code C#).

I hope to see a final decision in the future, which project will keep alive, best-featured, bugfixed, community supported and at least well documented through ex. Google code

Hi, all!

Sorry for taking so long to reply.
I just got back from a travel job.

I'll get back to the code and make it 1.2 compatible.
Expect a new alpha version soon!

msj33:
I totally get your point.
I'll see the torrent search support code from the previous plugin and study how to use it.
But it will take a little longer... :sorry:


Thanks,

torrinha

Hi,

are you still developing to a version that is compatible with Mediaportal 1.2.0 beta? I hope so! All the other plugins that do the samed as this doen't work, and are very complicated.. I hope that this plugin is al litle bit easier to configure and use..

 

[powermarcel10]

Anyone??

 

[torrinha]

I'm still working on it.
Sadly, the real life job got in the way again!

But I'll get on vacation in the next week... so, hopefully, the 1.2 compatible version SHOULD be released sometime in the next week...
