It would be nice if it was possible to press the Play key when you are in the IMDB info screen to start that movie.

Now that I think of it the Y key to add the video to the playlist also might be usefull.

MP1 MP2 MP2 - V2.3 Export movie cover art from database to individual folder.jpg files? DE

Hi. I was probably being a bit fast and loose with my terminology. I meant "somewhere within the files that MP2 uses in its database".

MP1 MP2 [solved] Fresh MP2 install issues (no DVD sound / LAV filters) DE

Fixed, I think. Certainly the vintage MP2 installer that I was using no longer installs the LAV filters. I can only assume that these were never part of the install package itself, but rather downloaded during the install, and that link no longer exists. Shame that the installer doesn't indicate this. Last time when I installed the...

MP1 MP2 Resume for External Players DE

I don't think so, because MP has no way of knowing at which timestamp the external player stopped playback. Best way to achieve this would be to use an auto-resume feature in your external player itself. (MPC-HC can do that, I don't know about VLC)

MP1 MP2 MP stuck on splash screen DE

maybe setting loglevel to debug might pinpoint the difference between normal and stuck? Preferable with as much disabled as possible also try to see if anything is happening during stuck for the mediaportal process(resource monitor, disk activity, cpu usage, anything) maybe other programs competing for resouces?
