Don't worry there are a lot of VGA plugins already done also there is a small program that build this plugin automatically moreover if any one need a plugin for his VGA i can support it for him. So it is not a problem at all.You will not need to support it. I will keep supporting this plugin.=======================================================================@ ziphnor,Yeah, fraction of users who will use it bcoz they don't know about such this option or they may not know about PE system at all. I can make a complete explanation about PE system to let the users know about this world that really will turn our life to be more easier.btw, You may notice that Windows Vista setup form boot DVD have more GUI than Windows XP for example in Windows Vista there is no Text Mode (the Blue screen that come after boot from CD) like XP bcoz Windows Vista in its start load PE system (not Bart one) so that it can support mouse and more GUI.=======================================================================@ and-81 , That bcoz any plugin that added to the download section used to add or adjust a feature for MediaPortal program but in my case the plugin  is not going to add a feature to MediaPortal it will port the whole MP system to be run on another platform (PE System) which is considered a complete change in the way that MP work.Yeah, fraction of users who will use it bcoz they don't know about such this option or they may not know about PE system at all.

Not only that we move moreover, in the PE system now you can INSTALL some applications like what you don on your real system. Check my <a href="http://xtreme.boot-land.net/myplugin.html" target="_blank">Plugins</a>I'm really know that DirectX is needed to run MP otherwise it wouldn't work with me.That is not right so far. PortableApp make change in your system registry and they do these changes based on <a href="http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page" target="_blank">NSIS-launchers</a>. If you wanna to check that try to use the portable Mozilla Firefox then after you open it go to Add/Remove Programs in your control panel you will find it there and this don't come unless you modify the registry of the windows. May be they need to study the windows registry very well as you can prevent an Application from appearing in Add/Remove by skip some registry key. also you can check what i mean by NSIS-launcher by check the extract application folders. To be more specific go to folder name Other->Source you will find .nsi files you can open them with any text editor (Notepad is ok) and if you check it you will find there some values for registry setting. Check <a href="http://portableapps.com/node/11195" target="_blank">this</a>Yeah, to have a portable MP like PortableApp is a great thing but you can't guarantee the required software that MP need to be found on the host system for example as you know MP need to have Microsoft .NET v2 to be installed on the system you can't guarantee that it had been installed on the system also there will be more limitations as you said for the codecs but in PE System we can build everything we need and the only disadvantage is the time need to boot the PE system but it is also a huge advantage if it compared to the feature that PE.PE will add:<ol> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">MP will be portable.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">you don't need any additional program only you PE CD/DVD/USB.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">You can run it on any HTPC and not limited to those which have window (i.e. as you know MP not support Linux OS and it had been asked a lot in this forum to support this OS but with PE System Linux users will be able to run MP on there HTPC. Just build your PE system once on the windows then move it to any CD/DVD/USB so that you can use it any time to run MP without the need to install windows anymore.</li> </ol>=========================================================================The coming Technology will be to the portable software so don't prevent MP to be portable.<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" />YOUR MEDIA CENTER SYSTEM IN YOUR HAND AND YOU CAN USE IT ON ANY PC YOU WANNA</blockquote>
