[QUOTE="Bernard, post: 961426, member: 120430"] Hi Wawa79, I've been using MP for about a year full time, and before that I just tested it while it was on some version 1 a long time ago. I have noticed that you should not play around too much with plugins, they cause a lot of the stable issues. Also working with a slow network connection (to your media), or broken files can really crash MP in a heart beat. Because I spend 5 seconds on the MP core, and the other 2 hours a day on the Movie and TV Series plugins, I cannot say that my problems come with MP Core, but rather the plugins. Since 1.3.0 Alpha which was full of funny surprises and bombed out sometime (but expected of a Alpha). All the issues I had, was resolved in 1.3.0 beta. But it is still beta. But since I upgraded to 1.3.0 beta, I have had NO problems with the parts that I use... and that would be: the main menu, the settings, sound control. I don't use the TV option which is part of the core. So I can't really tell you anything about that. My movies and tv serries plugin can do with some refining, in regards to weird delays sometimes, and I have to press play twice on some (or all) movies. (A bug I should report). I had worse issues with the core of 1.2.3 (or whatever was before 1.3.0) and find the 1.3.0 better to work with. For instance the startup of 1.2.3 was like hell, I had to switch the system on 10 minutes before I wanted to use it, so that it can boot (something to do with plugins loading). This problem is now gone in 1.3.0 and I have more plugins on it than before. So just that was a big upgrade to me. Lastly I just want to say, I'm also a full time coder, and I have no idea how these guys can get so much time to actually sit and develop such a big system. And all this commitment for free! This goes for the plugin developers as well, and in most case they are one-man-shows, so they have to do everything themselves. I'm really donating money once I won the Lotto! These guys deserve it! But until then, I'm struggling to keep my head above water myself, with lots of overtime. [/QUOTE]
