    I was thinking like everything in My Movies. Like recently added and a short description on the album. -could be grabbed from amazon or something? And maybe a option to read the biography of the artist. Its alot to ask, hehe. But just a thought.

    Maybe it could show how many albums the artist have, and who of these that are in your music collection.

    Spragleknas: That one looked cool, but have it been abandoned? - And further down you talked about spotify plugin. Do you know if it still exist?

    The built in music plugin does all of this. There is a recently added view (you need to import your music into the database for this to work) and you can get artist and album info via the context menu.

    The scraping of artist/album info is a bit of a pain to get working. I am looking at sorting out a plugin for this at some point. There are lots more options for where this type of data gets displayed in 1.2 beta.

    Hi. I was probably being a bit fast and loose with my terminology. I meant "somewhere within the files that MP2 uses in its database".

    I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...

    Got it working again!!! (y) (y) It seems the file "DialogMenu.xml" in the theme folder does not have the onX settings in the file by default (after MP 1.36) and when you install a later version of MP. I modified the MP 1.38 file with the onX settings from MP 1.36. Also I have found the "DialogMenu.xml" from MP 1.36 will work with MP...

    I would have to know more details, and ultimately, I'll have to test it when I get my new display, but an AI answer I got (I don't trust AI and this may not be correct) was that HDR is encoded with the HEVC codec and I know MePo uses the HEVC codec to play 4K UHD Blue-ray discs. So, there is at least the possibility that it will work...
