[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 1037426, member: 18896"] What is the best approach then in regards to MPEI? There are users still stuck on an older version of MediaPortal that do not want to update for whatever reason. If they then update MPEI auto or manually it would break things for them. Now they can manually re-install an older version, but might not be aware of that. For the pre-release I can compile an MPE1 file and offer this as a manual method, but was just thinking ahead for when the real version goes out. Now I know MPEI Maker supports scripts and such, so maybe there is an easy way to 'detect' what version of the plugin is required and install the appropriate one, but probably best to not reinvent the wheel if somebody already came up with a nice solution for that. Or is MPEI already smart enough to deal with the situation by specifying minimum requirement for each individual update? [/QUOTE]
