Latest Release (2 Viewers)

Why is the installer not being updated with the latest release from the changelog? https://code.google.com/p/moving-pictures/source/list

I ask because there are some bug fixes in here - and would love to have these updated. Thanks.

Work/Family/etc prevent the project owner to find the time to do so.

An alternative, without compiling your own version, is the v1.5.2:1528 test-build that I uploaded on IMDb+ project site over on Google code.

It was meant for IMDb+ users to test the new Moving-Pictures features for 'collections', 'plot keywords' and 'release date', but it is now turning into a dirty fix for users who are running into all the issues fixed a long time ago.

Example of a reworked skin I use myself that shows all the new options:

Hm thanks, I may try that one.

I'm wondering, can't somebody affiliated with the project do a "latest compile/installer" with all of the releases since February?

Nope only project owner can. A co-owner could as well, but none exist for MovPic.

Eventually I know people will get tired of it and fork the entire project if needed to keep it moving forward. Month of December allows extra personal time for a lot of developers, so who knows... stay tuned

Merging of MovPic and MyVidéo ....

Heh, this probably gives me too much of a pass. I have had a lot going on personally lately (several weddings, a funereal, holidays and family stuff) and I have been working on getting a startup off the ground, so I have very little time for Moving Pictures right now. But that shouldn't mean the project should suffer, especially when there are other active developers. The problem is simply that I have not done a good job transitioning responsibilities to new people as I have had less and less time to offer. I'm sorry about that.

Damien has been active with the project lately and put together the recent beta so I will talk to him about getting things straitened out so that a release does not depend on my availability. I am sorry if this has created confusion for anyone.

Damien did a great job so far, and his release is really stable, so you could get rid of the word Beta and release it as is

Where is that latest beta found? I'd like to give it a shot. The biggest issue for me is the ratings window not being available, other than that it's still pretty stable and functional for me.

There´s no more Beta - repo has the latest version

Should work as-is via MediaPortal Extension Installer shortcut on your desktop (MPEI), just make sure you update the list, so that your MPEI is aware of the new 1.6.2 version. Options -> Download Online Update Info.
