[QUOTE="dir, post: 323624, member: 24485"] Hi, Sorry but could you explain this for those of us that are not developers or long-time followers of these threads? I assume "SVN" means "software version number", but the only version I can find in Media Portal is 1.0.0 RC3. The MP Config app doesn't have an "About" function and (very strangely) doesn't seem to have the version of MP anywhere obvious. This makes figuring out which SVN I'm using a job for detailed technical analysis. I'm capable of doing that, but I'm spending so many hours already just getting basic stuff working, it gets a bit overwhelming when faced with requests like the one above. The version of PureVvisionHD I downloaded was "2.0.1056" - again, no correlation between it and SVN numbers like 20683. How do I determin which "SVN" I'm using? I've also got another basic question that I fear to ask: I would like to use Moving Picture and have it installed. I've seen it mentioned in this thread, and I have it working fine. However, the main PureVision menu displays TV Pictures Videos Music menu Weather Root Menu Settings Internet Title If I select Video, I get a generic directory browser which is horrible. I would like it to jump to Moving Picture, or I would like Moving Picture and TV Shows on this main menu instead of "Videos", "Internet", and "Title". I'd also like to re-arrange the menu order slightly. So my questions are: a) Are users able to choose what shows up in the menu without having to modify XML code, or do users pick their skins based on the skin author's decisions about menu items and plugin choices? b) The last menu item is "Title", yet it jumps to a game menu. Can I change the name to "Games"? I'm sorry for asking such basic questions, but if I post generic questions elsewhere, they can't help me with skin-related issues. Many thanks. I'm really impressed with this skin and have chosen it as the main reason to install and configure Media Portal on my very long-time Meedio htpc. [/QUOTE]
