@Albert
It wasn't only meant for him but for all of you guys who work really hard to let MP2 become the best media center ever! So it's also a compliment for you

Thank you very much! But I understood it as compliment for the team. But morph really did very much the last months

However, thanks!

[*]We need a nice Splash-Screen (skinners, please show us what you can do!)

Please, please, please do not use an seperate spalshscreen like in MP1. As you can see in recent threads with skin and plugin compatibility warings this is just a pain in the ass.

Lets do it like XBMC and have the loading animation be done in GUI.

<cut>

I totally agree on this one!

Further very good and hard work, I compiled MP2 a couple of months ago and it was definately not Alpha ready

Keep it up!

Nice to hear this news! As infinite.loop wrote, a list of capabilities (no not complete user documentation) would be needed. Otherwise everywone will ask about capabilities in the forum... (well, they will do anyway, at least we can prepare a template answer :"Look Here" )

Thanks to the team!

I'm fairly new to MP, but I just want to say something:

What you guys are doing is simply awesome and inspiring. I'm a code developer (which is what turned me on to MP in the first place) and now that I see what you guys are doing, I'm inspired to jump in and start to help! I guess that's what opensource is all about right?

Thanks for what you guys do!!!

we also could combine the inspiration with some tasks for you

I'm working on that as we speak

I just got MP 1.2 working and configured and now I'm gonna have to break it and install MP2!!! lol Guess I'll just go get some new hardware and try it there instead... The wife would be happier if I didn't break 1.2 just yet!!!

Since I just got started into this whole thing....who do I contact to figure out what all MP2 has to offer... I (just like everyone else) have some ideas like I would like to contribute and even offer to dev but I don't want to duplicate efforts...

Hi dkelsey,

Fisrt thing to know if you jump into the MP2 world, is that it's still under development, and no working installer is currently provided.

That said, you can without any problem use MP 2 with MP 1.2 on the same machine.

Take a look here to know know more about MP2 : MediaPortal 2 - MediaPortal Wiki, build it, play with it, take a look in the code... There is no user doc at the moment, so you'll have to figure out how it works mostly by yourself. But it's pretty esay for someone with IT background.

After that, if you want to talk to us, you can try IRC...

Cheers.

Smeulf.

I've just updated the first post with the current progress

I'm not sure if this has been asked anywhere else, but with this completely new from scratch MP project is there an opportunity here to release a Linux version? Or is this solely build around Windows framework? Great work btw guys to date on this, looking forward to it Just wish I could run MP2 on Linux and be done with Windows in my house altogether.

No because we are still using .net framework and direct show.

Team MediaPortal won't support other OS'es than windows. It is allready more than enought work to support one OS.
