    I haven't had a look at the site (very slow internet connection where I am right now), but my first thought is shouldn't this information be in the MediaPortal Wiki instead?

    The MP Wiki is already a great resource of information that is linked from the app, from her and from the main site as well. Having instruction videos on another site that also needs promoted for our users to get the most out of it seems a little redundant.

    Don't take me the wrong way, anything like this is a great addition, I just don't see the need for a dedicated domain and hosting for this when you can use any of the video hosts out there and the current Wiki.

    Just my 2p :)

    I may be in the minority, but I hate video tutorials. They force me to sit through the part I already know in hopes of getting to the portion I need to learn. I much prefer to scan or search text for answers. I applaud your effort and dedication though.

I kept the "Media...

    Fixed, I think. Certainly the vintage MP2 installer that I was using no longer installs the LAV filters. I can only assume that these were never part of the install package itself, but rather downloaded during the install, and that link no longer exists. Shame that the installer doesn't indicate this. Last time when I installed the...
