[QUOTE="ChubbyArse, post: 1072288, member: 117700"] I've just been through this - so hopefully I can advise. [LIST=1] [*]You'll need all of the pre-reqs mentioned on this page [URL='http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/18_Contribute/4_Development/Building_MediaPortal_from_source/1_Git_Setup']here[/URL] - however it is easier to just install 1.7.0.0 (or 1.6.0.0) on your development box and let it install the pre-reqs for you. I tried to avoid a complete install of MediaPortal as I tend to not usually do that on dev boxes (I'm used to GAC problems etc - but there doesn't seem to be any GAC elements to MP - phew). [*]I'm running in Visual Studio 2013 full - so I can't vouch for express development... :( [*]Like i said in 1, it's easier to just install MP on the dev box. Ther are configuration files and databases (mysql) that are created and populated by the installer - that are too difficult to hand-crank. Just let the installer do the work. [*]I'm currently devloping my plugin against 4.0. In fact, I dropped to 3.5 and the references from the MP installed folder - don't appear then as they are built for 4.0. [*]Again, let the installer do the work. Have a search through some of my previous posts as it seems I trod a similar path to that which you are trying. [/LIST] I'm also developing on an i5 4GB running VirtualBox (with 2 of the cores and half the memory) with a Windows + VS2013 image. It takes a little while to get going but once it's running it's pretty good. Good luck getting up and running. I've got some difficulties with my plugin solution and creating the installer - so follow my posts as I may ask similar questions to you. For info my repository is [URL='https://github.com/ChubbyArse/mediaportalmovieguide']here[/URL]: [/QUOTE]
