Hi all,
Just found out about Media Portal via AVS forum discussion. Actually, the screenshots of a skin(xface) really drew me in!
A couple of questions tho...
I see that a plugin is in the works for HD playback from within MP... until that it in use and stable, how are HD DVD and BluRay movies handled? External player? If so, any one particular or any that playback? Hard drive playback, ISO or player program dependent?
Right now, I am using My Movies 2.42 for DVD database cataloging and playback. I see a plugin or two that handle movie databases and playback... will I be able to import my collection? I did not see it listed (MyMovies) but it will output an XML file. Anyone do this before?
Overall it looks good... I'm looking forward to trying it out and moving away from MCE 2005 - I like opensource work and am happy to support it.
