Does MediaPortal Require Silverlight? (1 Viewer)

On Windows, does MediaPortal require Microsoft Silverlight to be installed?

If so, what does it need it for?

I have an idea that when I installed MediaPortal, it also installed Silverlight, for which I have no other need.

Hi there

No, it does not require silverlight.

Thanks, that eliminates MediaPortal!

If you have MS automatic updates on then thats the reason

No, I always refuse its offer of Silverlight.

Anyway, I know it was installed as a byproduct of some other package,

I know that Netflix plugin requires it....any chance you installed that particular plugin?

 

[XRaySpeX]

Dunno! What is it? How would I tell?

I'm running the non client-server version, what ever it's called.

Netflix is a pay service that lets you stream movies and TV shows to your home via internet. I guess you would know you have this plugin if you see "netflix" in your plugins directory.
