[QUOTE="robbo100, post: 671817, member: 91446"] Language files go in the language folder, which can be found at the specified location (C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal) The plugin files go in the plugin\windows\ directory root as specified. Make copies of the plugin for each programme you want to run and name them something memorable (i.e. name one "skype.dll" and the other "powerDVD.dll", then run the .exe file. I believe the .xml file is generated when the running of the .exe file (but I may be wrong). Whe you go into MP configuration, the plugins "skype" and "powerDVD" will then appear, where you can configure them by inserting the runfile location etc. It should be pretty simple to get working - even I managed it :-) p.s. if you want to add another function later, then do another copy of the dll file and give it another unique name, then "importantly" you must re-run the .exe file again such that the .xml is edited. Then repeat the process (pre-existing multishortcut plugins should remain unaffected and not need re-configuring) [/QUOTE]
