[News] MediaPortal 1.1.0 RC3 - RELEASED (1 Viewer)

[infinite.loop]

With a few days delay, we are finally able to present you 1.1.0 RC3 !

In this version we fixed several issues inside the installer, which could have prevented upgrades and clean installations in some cases.
We also fixed several memeoryleaks (again ) and fixed quite some more issues.
Please have a look at the release news for the complete list of changes.​

Note: Creating clean logs is a LOT easier in 1.1.0 RC3

Even though it was a small change in code, I am very exited about this change, because it makes our lifes so much easier.

For years, users and team members had to spend a lot... I mean a LOT... you know... A L O T !!! time to create clean logs.
More than a few gone

in the process.

Reason for that is that clean logs require that you start MP without using and Extensions (Skins & Plugins).
And this meant in most cases, uninstalling them.

Now, starting with 1.1.0 RC 3, you can create clean logs with a few clicks!

1. Just select the "MediaPortal Debug-Mode" shortcut in your windows start menu.
2. This will open a new window
   
3. Select the first option and then press the proceed button
4. Now MediaPortal will start, using the default skin and only the plugins which were part of the MediaPortal version you installed
5. Once you close MediaPortal, all your logs will be packed into a zip file (MediaPortal & TV-Server logs - if installed).
6. This zip file you can attach to your bugreport or support thread

But this is not only great for bugreport and support threads!

Now you are also able to quickly test, if the issue you encounter also occurs when not using Extensions (skins & plugins).
If it does not, then you know that you should contact the author(s) of the Extension (skin&plugin) you are using for further support.
To provide them with logs, you can simply use "Option 2" in the "MediaPortal Debug-Mode" window. ​

I hope that you find this small change as useful and time-saving as we do.

I have just upgraded from 1.1.0 RC2 to RC3.

Immediately noticed the initial startup time is a fair bit quicker as is turning TV on and channel changes.

My EPG is now back in the correct channel order too - RC1 and RC2 had it all over the place.

Great work guys. Thank you.

Just wanted to ask if the new version of StreamingServer.dll which is found here is also included in RC3?

As far as I know, all changes are in RC3.
But do not try and use that dll with RC3, it _will not_ work.
