@[USER=11220]jameson_uk[/USER]: Sorry, I'm a bit confused here.
1. Here, in this thread, I get the impression that the MusicInfoHandler plugin is being replaced by built-in MP functionality offered by the files in the first post. However, in this other thread, you offer an updated version of the MusicInfoHandler plugin said to be compatible with the files in the first post here.
Does the (updated) MusicInfoHandler plugin offer some additional functionality beyond the files in the first post?
2. The first post says to install the provided HtmlAgilityPack.dll (v1.4.6) into <ProgramFiles>\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal.
However, my (v1.5.0) MP installation (successively upgraded from at least 1.3.0) already includes HtmlAgilityPack.dll (v1.4.0) in <ProgramFiles>\Team MedaiPortal \MediaPortal\plugins\Windows. Is the duplication intentional? Could there be conflicts between the 2 different versions?

P.S. Maybe not a conflict, but I have observed a side effect of the installation as described in post #1, which I suspect is related to point 2 above.
Several entries in the MP menu are duplicated (see attached). If I delete or rename the new files and restore the old ones, the problem goes away. However, to eliminate the duplicate entries, I had to run MediaPortal Configuration and exit with OK after restoring the original files.

P.P.S. Side effect described above was due to renaming WindowPlugins.dll to a filename with the dll extension. It is essential to either *change the extension*, or move the file elsewhere for backup purposes!
