    Good question... I just installed SMP without MovPic and can confirm that MovPic .dll is being installed.

    Also: shouldn't the settings screen for MovPic and/or TV Series plugin be skipped when unchecked for install?

    How did you uncheck it? I thought I made it impossible to uncheck...anyway its a pre-req for the editor so its mandatory for now. The plugin doesnt need to be enabled, but it needs to be installed.

    EDIT: I just checked the installer code and noticed it doesnt disable the checkbox so thats why you were able to uncheck it :( I will investigate why this is...I have also been meaning to refactor the BasicHome editor so MovingPictures is not a per-requisite but its not that trivial.

    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...

    100% my bad - as expected :) So, I had disabled the Windows Update service. Not a wise move, until MP all installed and working nicely. The reason it failed is because DotNetFrameworkChecker.cs looks in Registry HKLM SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\NET Framework Setup\\NDP for v4/v4.0 AND v3.5. W10 has V4.0 but not 3.5. MP installer...
