[QUOTE="FrankBert, post: 1223123, member: 50132"] I am using MP1 with StreamedMP and MCE remote control happily for years now. After testing many different skins, StreamedMP was the one which has for me the most logic user interface using a remote control. E.g. the back key on the remote always get me one level back from where I came from and the info buttom get me to the selected infos for the screen or media I currently watch/play - all very intuitive and logical. Additionally the WAF (womans acceptance factor) is quite high. ;) I tested MP2 in parallel from time to time, to see the progress and really like the functionaly - though, the user interface operating it with a remote control really is a pain. I tried all available skins so far, but imho, all do not have a high WAF - even a high MAF. I do not understand how the operation works and how the logic behind is. I really struggle to find out what a key on the remote does in one screen and in another. That's why I am still stuck with version 1 and StreamedMP. I can agree with [URL='https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/members/lehmden.109222/']Lehmden, [COLOR=#000000]that sometimes new implementation will and should change known behaviours, but I am not talking about home screens or navigation in general, I am talking about operation in e.g. TV or Vidoe play mode (show info, change language, change channel, go back to program etc.).[/COLOR][/URL] In my understanding, usability can be measured in how logical and simple and operation is - and not how long I need to learn it. With the current skins in MP2 I do not have the patience to learn it - my wife for sure also not. Please do understand me correct, I am very happy for all the effords developing MP1 and MP2, but I believe there is quiet some room for improvement in the usability using a remote control in MP2. If I can help, I am happy to assist. [/QUOTE]
