i was kind of hoping there would be some updates too, but i'm with the holidays just passing, i'm sure its been a busy time for all. i dont know what the status the on mce16x9 skin, but if there ever is a 16x9 skin 960x540 might be the way to go. very interested in the mce16x9 progress, but too impatient to wait, i tried my own for my 1280x720 dlp...and then gave what i did to a friend with a rptv with a desktop resolution at 960x540...and it didnt look very good on his tv. redoing some of my work at 960x540 obviously looked a lot better on his tv, and wasnt too bad on mine either. we passed on both resolutions to my brother using a 1920x1080 and the 960x540 also looked better there. dont know how much of that has to do with rptv's and dlps, but unless there are others willing to do several different resolutions, 960x540 seems to be the best compromise for a single 16x9 skin.

MP1 MP2 Audio/Music output not stereo. 2.41, 2.5, 1.38.3 DE

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...

MP1 MP2 Better recording scheduler DE

TV Server plugins are listed on this page, and "EPG Cleaner" can be downloaded from this page. Note: I don't know what bitness the plugin has. It might be 32-bit, or it might be "any cpu". The plugin is not listed by the "MP Extensions" tool, so I don't know whether it has been tested with the most-recent MP releases. -- from...

MP1 MP2 Picture-in-picture DE

Can anyone tell me the step-by-step procedure for bringing up a second channel in pip mode? I can only do it sometimes, after many tries, and it’s not clear what I am doing that makes it work on those occasions when it does. Cannot find guidance on the site. Thanks, N. Again, if anyone knows how to do this, would be much...
