[QUOTE="jameson_uk, post: 981084, member: 11220"] MP is a typical legacy app... What code documentation there is does not always match reality and there are lots of areas with no documentation at all. There is no real API for plugins to work with so a lot of development is unfortunately trial and error :( Start off with [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/18_Contribute/6_Plugins/Plugin_Developer's_Guide[/url] The GUIControls demo is a good starting place to understand how to interact with MP. Also look at other plugins (most are open source) to see how they do things. If you have specific questions just ask and someone will probably have an idea [/QUOTE]
