[QUOTE="GadgetMan, post: 161296, member: 48865"] Hi guys, I'm very proud of the work done to MP to date, and really need to assist with the cause. I'm traditionally a VB GUI developer, but work with java day to day. C# is a good compromise b/n the two and wanted to take this chance to further my knowledge in the area. I have followed the instructions at [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/MediaPortalDevelopment/CompilingMediaPortal[/url], namely: - Downloaded MS Visual C# Express - Downloaded an installed Tortoise SVN - Downloaded all the src from the main branch (trunk) - Install the .NET 2.0 SDK - Installed the DirectX SDK - Run the "Build VCExpress MP.bat" (is that all you need)? I've grown used to 'ant' tasks as such, which you simply kick off the one build to build it all etc. [b]Problem 1:[/b] I see that when this batch file runs, I see a lot of files NOT being copied as expected. [b]Problem 2:[/b] WebEPG-conf (the app I'm trying to enhance) is now kind of working, however when I try to modify the GUI with the GUI Designer, it compains about: [b][size=4]The path is not of a legal form.
