[QUOTE="THDBASED, post: 103680, member: 18228"] [b]Started on:[/b] 2007-01-11 [b]last update:[/b] 2007-01-11 [b]Summary:[/b] Just basically an automatic updating system. [b]Area:[/b] Mediaportal [b]Description:[/b] I was doing a search on this and to my surprise nobody has ever talked about this as a feature. The thing is I know that not everyone does SVN releases. So therefor there should be some options you can select which kind of updates you want. 1 . Only updates for a new stable release 2 . All updates so also SVN updates. The software should check if new updates are available and ask for the permission to download and install new updates. In the server part there should be an option to find new (SVN) updates and install them automatically because the server is probably not hooked up to a screen and/or keyboard and mouse. I know that most of the software and code is still beta and implementing this is maybe a bit overkill but I sure would be HANDY, imagine being always up to date with the newest code and this without having to go to the website and downloading the files and putting them in the right dir. Maybe this feature is something for the future but maybe it is a good idea to start thinking about this now so it would be ready when the future (whenever this may be :) ) is present! Also it would be handy, like in my situation. I am still running the previous stable release because I don't really want to uninstall this version and then reinstall the newer version, which to me is kind of strange. Now I need your input, as well as from devs as from users, THDBASED [/QUOTE]
