    I didn't follow MP2 development process so please excuse me for stupid question.
    But why does MP2 TVServer a.k.a. TVE3.5 require win7 too? I thought MP2 is win7+ because of skin engine and tvserver has no skin as I remember.

    It's not only the skin engine. It's also the fact that there are not many devs using XP or vista anymore so we can not guarantee that everything is working as expected. Of course everybody is free to fork it and make working with these operation system but we will only officially support Windows 7 and up.

I am pleased that that is now working for you. :) If you have ever looked at MP debug log files, you may have noticed that apparent errors are not rare, but these are "errors" that do not affect the functioning of the product. (It is not desirable to have these errors in the log file, as it misleads users, testers, and...
