[QUOTE="HÃ¥rek, post: 47113, member: 19655"] I just started with MediaPortal a few days ago. I have some experience with a few small projects in Visual C# 2005 Express. This is what I have found so far: DirectX SDK must be installed. TortoiseSVN must be installed. Create a new directory for the download. Right click and select TortoiseSVN -> Checkout Use [url]https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/mediaportal/trunk/mediaportal[/url] This will take a while, it wil transfer 65 MB. The last line should say â€œCompleted: At revision xxxxâ€ I had some errors here to begin with, because SourceForge went down for maintenance. It might be good idea to make a local copy now, to keep as a reference so you do not need to download it all again if you want to start over from the beginning. Start Visual C# 2005 Express. Choose MediaPortal.VC#Express.sln You will see that the solution contains 24 projects. Select â€œProject â€“ Set StartUp Projectsâ€¦â€ and choose â€œMediaPortalâ€ from the list â€œSingle startup projectâ€. Build, and see that it succeeds. You will need to manually copy some files and folders from xbmc\bin\Release to xbmc\bin\Debug: language\ skin\ weather\ keymap.xml CaptureCardDefinitions.xml Now you should be able to run from inside Visual C#. Everything starts in xbmc\MediaPortal.cs This will launch configuration.exe, which is found in Configuration\Startup.cs. The configuration wizard is then Configuration\WizardForm.cs. However, debugging with breakpoints outside MediaPortal.cs is not possible? Does anybody know how to do this? [/QUOTE]
