Hey great thing.

Haven't seen this thread before (don't know why). I love this and wish it would be the standard way for everything.
I don't understand why any customizing has to be done outside of MediaPortal. This is one of the things which I love in XBMC.

The one thing I really would love is to configure my data folders (I know we are only talking about standard features) directly in MediaPortal. So a file explorer would be nice (also to copy etc.). But it should be in a separate configuration windows where only an administrative user ( or someone with a password ) can make changes.

In my opinion everything should be generic so that plugin users could also add their configuration easily.
Especially when I see plugins like MyFilms, MovingPictures, OnlineVideos and so on I always dream about a configuration within MediaPortal.
