[QUOTE="jawbroken, post: 83583, member: 14372"] For some reason I found this really hilarious after you had just said "Why should MP copycat MCE? MP should be built on it's own ideas and features, not based upon another piece of software." :) But sure, you don't find the snapshot/thumbnail for videos useful, other people don't find compression options useful. That is why MediaPortal has such an extensive configuration application. I just don't see what copying things from MCE or compressing shows has to do with the feature request. Personally, I think grabbing video thumbnails is a good idea, as it will make behaviour consistent across Recorded TV and Videos, and consistency is a good thing in an application like MediaPortal, I think. Speaking of which, perhaps this topic should be under Feature Requests and not Talk? It is more likely to be looked at there when development is considered, I think. [/QUOTE]
