Very nice - I will test and implement it over the weekend.

My final challenge is to get the receiver connected and then I can concentrate on the optics, layout and add ons...

Thanks a lot for sharing

I've just installed this plugin MQTT v1.0.0.14 on MP1 1.38.3 x64

Everything seems to be working fine and sending to my mqtt broker but when i pause a video i get the following error message and media portal locks up. If i disable the MQTT plugin everything works fine.

Message: Could not load file or assembly 'LatestMediaHandler, Version=2.4.0.82, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. Site : Void SetLevelForPlayback(System.String, System.String) Source : MQTTPlugin Stack Trace: at MQTTPlugin.MQTTPlugin.SetLevelForPlayback(String mediaType, String Level)
at MediaPortal.Player.g_Player.StoppedHandler.Invoke(MediaType type, Int32 stoptime, String filename)

Could not load file or assembly 'LatestMediaHandler, Version=2.4.0.82

That's really strange—I haven't seen any errors like that, even though I use it every day. To be fair, I have both FH and LMH installed. I updated the plugin and all its dependencies; I hope that will fix the problem.

OK I've found my problem. I didn't realize that I needed to have LatestMediaHandler plugin installed also.

Installed the plugin and now MQTT works great with no problems pausing the video.

Thank you for your fast response. the fact you said you had FanartHandler and LatestMediaHandler installed nudged me in the right direction.
