Hey, could you please support Songbird as mediaplayer?
It's a great alternative to itunes and also open source.

    Which added value would a Songbird support give?

    iTunes and Winamp is necessary for playng DRM protected music. But the BASS player we use plays the same list of audio files as songbird does.
    so i don't see any reason for songbird

    Especially since MP can do almost everything (shoutcast, last.fm, etc) on its own - and sometimes even better...

    but it would be better if mediaportal use the musicdatabase & coverpictures from songbird.

    4.5 is really old. I'm not sure 4.5.5 even is a version that actually existed. You should be able to install .NET Framework 4.8.0 on Windows 7 SP1
