Infos:
These Subversion-snaps are compiled at about 01.00h (CET).
You can also visit the official irc-channel (#mediaportal) to get a notice when its ready for download. The trigger !svn gives you the latest update too.
They are not pre-tested, so please use the backup option from time to time.
If you'd like the bleeding edge code and don't mind the inherent risks, upgrade to the snapshot releases as they become available.
If stability is important to you, you might want to stay with the fully-tested releases.

How to install MediaPortal SVN-Snapshots in short:
1) Install MediaPortal 0.2.3.0 RC2, not necessary if already done
2) install .NET Framework Version 2.0
3) Run the Snapshot-Installer. You should create a backup.
4) Run Configure. Sometimes the settings and database versions change from build to build, so you have to reconfigure your TV for example
5) Hopefully enjoy the new version
6) If not, restore your old files and you will have the former version back.

Important notice: The backup function wont work for Vista atm, here you need to save your configuration manually. A rewrite is planned but will take some more time for testing.

Problem with fullscreen+ not always on top

Configuration:
MP starts fullscreen but "Always on top" deactivated.
Benefit: other apps can be started and used on top of MP, alt+tabbing back to MP hides thoose other apps behind MP.

After installing current SVN other apps won't open on top off MP, but "behind" it: they gain windows focus, but are not visible. This status accurs as soon as TV or a Video is currently or was played before. As long as nothing was played the problem doesn't occure.

Reverting to rev16014 solved problem (didn't test anything in between).

(reverted to a pre-rev16020, because there was a changelog-entry which seemed to correspond to this issue - at least probably ;)
MP 23/09/2007 [15:21:29] MrHipp added: reverted "when made fullscreen by using alt+enter it does...." due to problems with exclusive mode.

Hi Darklord,

With the newest build I see that there is an EVR video render option (requires .NET 3 framework). When I use this in stead of VMR9 then you can open any windows software (browser, word, etc..) on top of full screen MediaPortal, running vidoe etc..

Regards,

Luke
