    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.

    You can always try, select any window, turn off the Media Portal, change the ID of the selected one to the desired one (plugin) and check.

    The OP was prior to the current release in Feburary this year of MP 1.33 which resolved a number of installation issues present in MP 1.32 particularly the x64 version and has been very thoroughly tested in a variety of scenarios, none the less it is important to bear in mind that since MP 1.33 x64 now includes an x64 version of the...

    The problem with MP 1.32 was that the TV Server component was still 32-bit, even when you installed the 64-bit version of the MP client. MP 1.33 will have 32-bit and 64-bit versions of both the MP client and TV Server. My understanding is that it will not be possible to perform an upgrade install from a 64-bit client + 32-bit TV...
