[QUOTE="gds, post: 10797, member: 10435"] Uhm, maybe if I post just to say: "I agree with everybody" it will be an useless post :wink: So I'll try to explain my vision about MP: I don't see it as just an HTPC frontend. Given its open nature and documented inner behaviour (well, I didn't read the code, but hope it is :D ), to me it's got to become a sort of multimedia octopus, picking content from everywhere, showing it on local, networked or remote devices, getting input in every possible way (mouse, keyboard, PocketPC, other PCs) and giving feedback on its status on each connected device (showing a very similar interface on every device). If we (well, ehm, YOU developers) start thinking of MP like that, it will evolve in something really huge, a kind of "amorphous" being which everyone can shape to suit his needs. In a few words, I don't see it like a project, but as a meta-project. Ops, seems I forgot to swallow my pills :lol: GDS [/QUOTE]
