[QUOTE="finrudd341, post: 678535, member: 68408"] Yes - I had got in touch via that link, but didn't hear back. I was inquiring about exactly this - using MP as a commercial product, and becoming a sponsor. The idea was not that the software is sold, as this infringes the GNU - the revenue for a business model comes from the associated hardware sales, and potentially the network support, and yes - any skin that is developed for a hotel, would need to be available as code for everyone else (minus any brand/logo I suppose). I would love to see a hotel running MediaPortal throughout - it would really give the wow factor to small hotels that could not normally have a service like this, and that is normally the reserve of large business hotels. There is no reason why MP should not work from a central streaming server for content, and a pro IPTV headend - I think it would be more network related than client related. I would also like to know what the biggest MP install is to date - from what I can see of this AT Visions solution, they are running it in some big German Hyatt properties, which would be over 350 clients at least!
