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.

You can find more infos on SVN-snaps and how to install them in this Wiki-guide​

Is the Vista mediaportaldirs.xml problem (ie lost functionality of MCE remote) solved in this SVN?

Still problems with chanels

Hello,

The latest builds have big problems with the chanel list, when you change order of your chanels from the configuration it goes slow like hell ..


Hope this will be fixed..

I can confirm this (using SVN 16150)

mediaportaldirs.xml problem still not fixed. Manually restore the old mediaportaldirs.xml and you should be okay for the moment.

With this build, the list of albums under album artists was incomplete (after rescanning the library). For example, it only showed one Beethoven album, when I have dozens. IIRC, this was working correctly in 16125.
I was kind of surprised by how quickly the scan went. Could there be a relationship?

P.S. I just installed SVN 16189 and rescanned: now the albums are there!
