[QUOTE="wierdnatox, post: 19531, member: 10884"] I agree. I've been waiting 8 months for a version of MP I can use for everything, but it seems that if a release fixes one thing it breaks another. HTPC systems can be used by many different types of user in many different environments and as tempting as it may seem to just develop the next top feature and move on this will inevitably lead to instability. There is only so long that we can put off our family who's demand for perfection is much greater than most of ours. So please, please lets have maybe one release where no new features are added, only bugs fixed. I think people would actually prefer this to getting version 0.2. As a final point, some time ago MP asked for testers in the forum. Many people replied and then there was a posting about lack of response. I put my name down but heard nothing after that, and I can only assume that was the case with most other people. If you need help testing then ask and we will help, but at the end of the day it is your project and you have to organise it. Don't expect people to just know what to do. Please don't read anything harsh into this posting. Like someone else said it is a delicate subject. I think MP is fantastic and I just want to help make it better. :-) [/QUOTE]
