[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 941851, member: 109222"] Hi. All this is impossible, if you keep MP as it is now. MP heavily needs .NET what is not available on all of those platforms. OK, there is Mono, but that did not work for MP. A "simple" Media Player like VLC (which was always written on Linux and is easily portable to other enviroments) is one thing, a complex product like MP with millions of lines of code, this is simply impossible. And aside this, MP needs a lot more "horsepower" than any Android device available today can deliver, not talking about this even slower Raspberry Pi... And aside this, I don't believe this ugly "pseudo- modern" UI will last too long. It''s really unusable with Mouse /Keyboard and looks like a not really talented little child trying to copy the Android UI... If this really is the future of Windows (I don't believe this), than I'm leaving for Linux. Then Linux is a lot more like Windows as Windows itself... [/QUOTE]
