[QUOTE="Koen Zomers, post: 682201, member: 108135"] In my opinion we should keep the webservice easy and simple and not make the same mistake again to include all kind of side tools in the webservice. Those tools should be seperate projects which use the webservice to gather information regarding the Media Portal service. More functionality means more chances of instability means a crippled base framework and more possibilities of yet another webservice that will never be finished. Mike his first webservice release looks very promising in that. Please don't start about integrating this and that again :) Mike, do you have a link to what MPCC is? Couldn't find anything via Google. I'm just starting to get to know the architecture behind MediaPortal, so I'm wondering why there needs to be transcoding for this webservice?
