is there a way to speed up Media Portal Bootup? Even on a good SSD drive it takes about 15 seconds, my Windows 7 boots faster!

Thanks.

    We are looking into ways of decreasing the time required to start MediaPortal. But these are experiments currently. We do not know in which version of MP those improvements will be included. If they will make it into a version at all. Currently the tested experiments do have nasty side effects.

    Just reinstalled win 7 64bit on Intel I3 2100T with SSD - Windows boots in ~14 - Mediaportal in ~12-14 (including plugins) - ~8 sec. in debug mode.

    I also hope to see better startup sometime in the future - Standby/Resume still seems to have several flaws
    • Halfscreen issues on HDMI
    • Missing Mediaportal Keybord shortcut for "Standby"(For us without Remotes with power buttons).
    • Issues with playback, when entering standby while in Live TV - Playback stops/freezes when resuming or playback is stuttering.

    I got this same problem with resuming from S3 when previously viewed a VIDEO_TS folder.
    Live tv doesn't have this issue.
    I'm pretty sure it is not Codec related because they both use the same.

    Is there a bugreport regarding this? If not, please creat it (w/logs of course :)).

    Regarding startup time - @Scythe42 - words of wisdom?

    In many cases 3rd party plugins are contributing to the slow startup times of MP. On not so hot dev PC I have approx 3 to 4 second load times with MP.

    If you use a VPN connection to your home network, you should be able to use the MP client to connect to your server natively instead of using MPExtended.
