[QUOTE="dvdfreak, post: 395961, member: 21313"] [b]For The Record[/b] supports MP 1.0 out of the box. If you want to use the SVN of MP you do indeed need to manually update the plugin binaries. Except for specific changes to MP's own TvPlugin (which gets replaced) all improvements to MP code [U]will[/U] be picked up by [b]For The Record[/b]. The interaction is as follows: [list] [*][b]For The Record[/b] runs as a standalone suite. [*]To actually do the card allocation and recording it needs a recorder/tuner: this is the plugin for TV server. [*]To play back these recordings (or live TV) it needs a visualization: this is the TvPlugin replacement plugin for MediaPortal. [/list] The rest of the system runs on its own, without MediaPortal. So you can always use Web Access, the Management Console, the chat-bot,... regardless of whether the MP plugins are installed or not. For example, maarten77 wrote a Meedio plugin to play back the recordings. That way you actually combine the TV server plugin (recorder/tuner) for recording with Meedio for playback. It's a [u]very[/u] flexible system, based on a service-oriented architecture. [/QUOTE]
