My install is pretty stable at the moment and what I'd love to see is am 'uptime counter' to prove how stable it is.

Hopefully this will be a simple skin addin but I don't know where to look

I would like to see this to.
My main system has been running non-stop for about three weeks. It started from a clean install and a CVS from 2 Feb 06.

WAF has been through the roof. There for a while I would get the "your messing with it again?" question all the time.

My CVS/SVN/Skin/Plugin test system (son's computer) is a little different story. It's to be expected though, it is always useing the latest and "greatest".

    NLS said:
    it could go in a "system info" plugin

    Should be easy enough to do - just parse out the uptime from the data which comes back from the systeminfo command entered in a cmd window. example below:
    Code:
    ...
    Original Install Date:     2/14/2006, 10:03:58 AM
    System Up Time:            2 Days, 0 Hours, 1 Minutes, 10 Seconds
    System Manufacturer:       Dell Computer Corporation
    System Model:              OptiPlex GX270
    System type:               X86-based PC
    ...

    There is more info which I didn't show (before and after).

    I made a simple plugin for my own use to see XML download time and remaining disk space, I then added version number of MP. I added an uptime counter today. At the moment it is hardcoded for my drives, but if your interested I could change this and share it.

    Woot :D :D :D

    Brilliant!!!

    Will try it soon as I get home.

    Do you thinkit would also be worth adding the versions of some DX files like the ones needed for multiple tuners? I think this About screen is immensly useful.

    I have wanted to create a skin for MePo for years, but lack of free time due to other time demanding creative output (i.e. hobbies) I have not gotten past creating mockups of my skin ideas for when I could have time in the future.

    Looks like there's some kind of error regarding translations that I can't pinpoint about Subcentral. You'll find it in the log file I attached to my previous message. I don't understand it because I use MP in english, I search for subtitles in english and not in my native language, so I can't figure out what's translation got to do...
