TEST build for 1.1 beta
As a favor to other 1.1 beta users I've attached my build of this plugin for that version. Some things you need to understand:
It's a TEST version. It may not work for you.
It's a "personal" version done by me, not the plugin developer(s). If it doesn't work, don't bug them, it's not their fault.
I've only tested it with one app, Hulu Desktop. Which I suspect is what most of you running 1.1 want this for anyway, but I mention it because there may be apps that break it. I didn't do a whole lot of troubleshooting beyond functionality and some debugging at the start.
Did I mention this was a test build and it may not work for you?
Finally, it has a bug still that I haven't been able to stomp out: When you configure the plugin for the first time, normally it will create a language xml file for you inside /language/MultiShortCut/string_en.xml (or whatever your language is). In this build that function may be bugged, I though I had it licked but it's not working in Vista64/Windows 7 64. It may well work in XP/Vista x32, as I suspect it's a permissions issues of some sort (seeing as how the language directory in 1.1 has moved along with plugins to the Program Data folder).
What does this mean? Well, if you have the strings_xx.xml file already from a 1.0.x install, you can use that - the file is the same. If not, I have included the language files for you in the attached zip. You'll need to create a directory called MultiShortCut under program data/team mediaportal/language/ and put the xml files in there (if you try to configure the plugin without doing this it will tell you so along with exactly where on your system it expects to find the file - put it there).
Otherwise the instructions are the same - copy the DLLFix.exe and MultiShortcut00.dll to your plugins/windows directory, rename the dll to whatever you like, run DLLFix.exe from that same directory (under Vista/7 you may need to run it as an administrator), and then configure it under plugins in MePo's config.
Again, it may have some bugs yet - except for the language issue I think I caught them all, but I didn't spend a lot of time on it. I've only tested it with HuluDesktop, which worked for me. It may not work for you. If it doesn't don't blame the plugin Dev because it isn't his/her's fault
I'll try to track down further bugs this weekend unless of course the orginal dev wants to step back in in which case, please do, you know it better than me
