I had 2 quick questions and 1 comment. Question 1, how can I set MediaPortal as the default media player for my music and video files? Question 2, is there any way I can set the speed at which I browse through the files. When I hover the mouse, it goes too fast. And now for the comment: I really enjoy this program, thank you to anyone who contributed to it.

Question 1 also asked a week ago by someone else.

From that, it does not seem possible.

MediaPortal is not designed to be a mediaplayer. It's designed as a full HTPC application and that for it's not possible or even wise to use it as default / normal media player. WMP, VLC, MPC, ZoomPlayer... all those will work much better as normal media players than MediaPortral.
