I also can't help with the programming but I can do some testing if it's any help. I will also 'transmit' all my good karma to you guys, this can really mean a HUGE improvement in the linux experience for many beginners!

I think that with the release of the new Windows Vista, many users will be disappointed with the new OS and will turn to linux instead. If there's a moment in time where linux can really stand a chance against the redmond giant it's right now and I believe it's already starting. Many hardened windows users such as myself are now starting to wake up and see the benefits of opensource (firefox also has been an eye-opener for many).

So there's a great chance for linux, to offer something that users really will want. Mediaportal could be one of the apps that will help making the switch for many desktop users and home theather enthusiasts!

Viva MP Linux!
