Hi,

I was just using Visual Studio 2008. I followed what parts of the wiki I found that talked about compiling, but I didn't spot anything about common pitfalls on first run. Unless the MSBuild version places files in default locations, I don't think that will make a difference - compiling works, but I get runtime errors.

I will checkout those other two projects too

As for fully reading the wiki, I found the following section on debugging:

Debugging - MediaPortal Wiki

It doesn't feature any troubleshooting for errors. I believe I've met all the prerequisites, but again I don't actually have MediaPortal installed - just compiled.
