[QUOTE="TechLife, post: 417175, member: 81810"] Yes, it does. Black = DVD, Blue = BluRay, Red = Watch now -- @Wile: I hate to sound like a broken record here but excellent work my friend, excellent work. :D I haven't had a whole lot of time to torture the new version yet but a couple observations: - The new interface is awesome. Very, very sexy. - The fan art takes everything to a whole new level. - The addition of the browse feature is just what the doctor ordered. I very much like the search feature but let's face it...how often do any of us know what we want to watch?? The addition of an option to watch a trailer for the selected item (if available) would top the cake. (Sometime in the future...I wouldn't look to incorporate for 1.0) - The dot system is subtle yet intuitive. Much more classy IMO then the logos were. - The list menus are much easier to navigate then the thumbnails were. I know some people will probably disagree so maybe an option to use either (if possible) may be the most favorable. If this is difficult from a design point, I would stick with the list view. - I am thrilled with the fact that all of the transport keys on the remote work now. - You may want to include a folder named "MediaStream 1.0.1" folder in the skins directory to support the new version. The files can be exactly the same as what is in the "MediaStream" folder. I have just been copying them over manually and it works fine. (Easier installation for less advanced users) - When drilling down through using the "OK" button, OK doesn't launch the video. You actually have to press play. Not a big deal to me because I know... It just seems to me that a final OK vs. having to press a different button to launch would be a bit more intuitive. - When watching a video, if I press stop, the "browser" closes and drops me to the desktop. You can see Mediaportal.exe in the process list but I can't find any way to return. I actually have to crash MP and reload. This is on the 32bit Vista box. It seems that I should be dropped back to the menu I was on previously within the NetFlix plug-in in MP. It seems that in v.48 that's what happened but I could be wrong. If there are any logs that would assist, let me know and I will be happy to provide. I plan to do more testing today - if I find anything else I'll let you know. Note: I'm not trying to bitch here. I'm just trying to give you helpful feedback to aid in the development and moving towards perfection for a 1.0 release. I am very excited for you and about this plug-in! I hope to see it in the "hot plug-ins" section soon...Exactly where it belongs!! :thx: [/QUOTE]
