[QUOTE="Johnny_K, post: 102590, member: 28818"] Hi, I have been observing MP for quite a long time now. The developement is great, I like the huge community and team-work and the idea of getting a good (the best?) htpc software for free! But I wonder about some technologies and do not understand why to use them. I'm serious - you would help me to understand the philosophy of the development if cou could explain it to me. MP only runs with extra software installed. .NET framework in general, SQL server for the "TV-Server" etc. I don't like that I have to install aditional softwares to use another software... Some programs do not need any 3rd party soft and are so easy to use that you can even copy them on a stick, format your HDDs, reinstall windows and run them. Because there is no need to install them, all datas are located in the directory, no registry etc. I want a htpc-software easy to handle like this software I mentioned above. I don't want to have "tons" of special software installed, there should be no services running when I don't use the PC as htpc,... btw MP is unstable in every version I tested. Always crashes in TV-mode, engine 0.2 and 0.3. I Think this is because of my TV-card, a BDA-driven Terratec 1200 DVB-s. I tested AltDVB recently and didn't even know how wonderful my card can work. Super-fast loading, super-fast channel switching... some features are missing like channel numbers (!!) but this software is the best TV-software I ever tried (with my card)... I want to run MP, use it and close it. And I want MP to be handled like other TV-progs which can be resized in a small window without menues and borders. This would be so great. What is the main goal MP sould achieve? Can you post your plans, Frodo or any other developer? Don't misunderstand me. I am looking forward to MP getting better and better and satisfieng my wishes. Go on with the great work! Johnny [/QUOTE]
