[QUOTE="HTPCSourcer, post: 1212151, member: 74879"] Attached to this news you will find the Pre2 Release version of MediaPortal 2.1. Since we published the [URL='https://www.team-mediaportal.com/news/mediaportal-2-1-pre-release']MediaPortal 2.1 Pre Release [/URL]in late December, we fixed many issues and further improved the product to provide the best possible experience to the users.
