Is integration with Media Portal Extension Installer planned for a future release?
It'd be a great way to be informed of new releases... :)

Yes, now that MPEI is a part of a stable version of MediaPortal we plan to incorporate it in the future. Most likely beginning with Moving Pictures 1.1.

Hi, has any further thought been given to MPEI integration?

It's something I still want to do but I still have reservations with MPEI. The installer still visually looks quite bad and with the last release they added some changes that required everyone to rerelease their plugin even though there were no functional changes in MediaPortal requiring it. I have little enough time these days as it is, extra work for no reason doesn't help.

That said we need to switch to MPEI eventually. So it's just a matter of time I suppose.

Thanks for your thoughts. From a user's perspective MPEI is undoubtedly convenient. You can update a whole bunch of plugins in a few clicks.

Are different people taking turns watching the same thing on the same HTPC? For me, separating users in MP2 is a drawback, as is the interface. Simply put, this can't be done in MP1, or rather, it can't be done quickly, because everything would have to be rewritten. But if each user logs in with their own Windows account, MP1 can...

yes that is indeed what I did in that ticket. It may already be working without updating those plugins because most of it was not relevant to the plugin itself (test, some leftover unused parts etc).

I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...
