Hello!

Is it possible to run tvserver with mp 0.2.1 or will it be?

My MP 0.2.1 is anyhow running better then ever.

hi cvs,

you need latest svn to run the tvserver client...

is it possible to run 2 media portal installations on the same computer? I really like the idea of tvserver and tested it, but dont want to run it as my "live" enviroment until its as stable as the 0.2.1 installation is right now (it simply rocks right now). Would be great if i could have a "play around with" installation that i could just turn on when i wanted to test the tvserver version...

No, the installer won't let you install MP twice on the same computer.

Damn, but thanks

If you're really desperate and have a spare HDD: The limitation is that you cannot install MP more than once per XP installation. This means you can create a dual boot XP-XP system, with 0.2.1.0 on one of them and SVN on the other one. To be honest I'm not sure whether microsoft likes this, that might be worth checking first (both for legality and product activation)

just copy your 0.2.1 mediaportal dir and call it "Mediaportal SVN" or whatever, and install the SVN build into that directory.

I'm also very confused about the TV-server/client release and SVN releasing at the moment.

Here is how i understand it all(Pppplease somebody confirm it!):

The newest version of Mediaportal is 0.2.1.0

The TV-server and Client is recommended/working with ver 0.2.0.0(why not 0.2.1.0 - is it buggy or ?)

All SVN releases is for Mediaportal 0.2.0.0 if you see:
http://svn.team-mediaportal.com/

But should't SVN releases be for the newest version of Mediaportal??

/Morten - A little confused about the realasing at the moment.

Nope, 0.2.1.0 was a subbranch which was split off from main development at a certain point of time to concentrate on bug fixing for that release. Not a real bugfixing phase, but it was a certain time.

So: Main development was and is done on the normal main branch, that's why it's the base of the snapshots. The TV Engine needs LATEST SVN, not 0.2.0.0.

Currently you can get latest SVN by installing either 0.2.0.0 or 0.2.1.0 as a base
for the snapshots. (Won't necessarily be the case for future versions!)

0.2.1.0 was a feature/pleasure/present release for the users.
