    I don't have mediaportal 2, so I have no idea how long it takes to load etc, can always use splash screen replacement for OS: startup/suspend/resume. Maybe MP2 client config will have an option where it changes your OS splash screens to MP2.

    I think you won't see the splash screen for more than 5 seconds (for me <2 sec)

    I also prefer the fullscreen splash approach. Since the recent changes for multi-monitor support we have access to settings when showing splash screen. So we can allow to use a skin dependent (or even user selected custom) splash screen.

    If anyone prefers a "non fullscreen" or semi transparent one, it's easy to use a matching .png.

    Thanks. If you want to use one of the above I can fine tune, make a little nicer etc... (or you can do it yourself as i included the .psd file) Let me know if you do use one as I'll never know otherwise.

    I would like to use the "Orange on standard" (Orange MP2 logo on Titanium background) in 1920x1080 resolution. I will try to add the settings, or only replace the default splash screen.

    I thought you wrote orange on black, so here are both tidied up.

    Can we have a special "Alpha 2" screen? I thought about adding "α2" next to the logo. So the splash itself clearly identifies the version. As Titanium is default skin in Alpha 2, this will fit well (even without further settings)

    This is only a draft, so maybe someone more talented in graphics can make it look nice and matching with the logo?

    I think Alpha 2 is enough for now. Thanks!

    I'm not that talented either, I don't know how to do curves, I have to do them in with my mouse.

    First thing to say is that I use MP1, whereas I believe that you use MP2. @ge2301 has just posted that MP2 has a "folder view" in addition to the "library view", so you should be able to set up your system as I describe below, but the details will differ. In MP1, the folders that are to appear on the "Videos" panel are defined in "MP...

    Ok, so perhaps a solution, but not the "right" solution. On the client, within media portal configuration, under TV settings, advanced options, I switched to UNC paths instead of the default RSS, and it's working very well. Sure I had to figure out the paths, but no big deal. Maybe helpful for someone in the future. Thanks for the...

    Hi, it looks like the Client's server connection settings got corrupted somehow and were reset, hopefully this is an easy fix. Open MP2-Client, navigate to Settings->General->Connectivity->Home server. In the menu on the left there may be an option Detach from home server, if there is click it and acknowledge the dialog that pops up...
