Dear community,
this plugin has been updated to support the upcoming MediaPortal version 1.9.0. In order to prevent problems and errors with other plugins of my collection, please note the following information:

• due to architectural changes in the core libraries, all plugins must be updated simultaneously
• internal update mechanism has been changed with this version, the old way should work until end of October 2014 only

Cheers, Micropolis

Dear community,
I'm happy to present you the newest release of VolumeControl, which can be downloaded from the well known places as usual. This version contains a shelveset to share your plugin related settings and profiles across devices and services. In principle all network storages, cloud services (e.g. OneDrive, Dropbox) or any other storage you would like to use should work as expected.

To allow such a functionality, major changes inside the plugin code was necessary. Before using this new version and/or the sharing feature, it is highly recommended to follow the steps below:

• Before starting with settings and profile sharing, possible device or service specific configurations should be checked to prevent access or synchronization problems later. For more information, please take a look into the manual (chapter "Settings and Profile Sharing") or the troubleshooting guide.
• In case you decide to disregard the sharing feature, the plugin will work in the same way as before.

Unfortunately from now on the release rate of this plugin must be reduced due to time and budget issues. I'm not able any longer to work nearly each evening on plugin improvements or enhancements. Of course bug fix releases will be published in a regular way, possibly in combination with the release cycle of MediaPortal. If you would support future development, I was pleased to receive a small donation. This would help to bring my 5-years old development environment back up to date. The donation link can be found in the first post of this thread and in the about box of the plugin.

Of course, I continue to look forward to your feedback, bug reports or feature requests. How quickly such changes can be implemented, the future will answer it.

Thank you and regards,
Micropolis

Can someone verify - this plugin breaks my MP startup (MP never starts).
Disabled this and MP is fine - MP 1.19.0Pre

Going to assume that this is dead then...

Dear community,
after a long, work-related absence, I'll try in the next few weeks to consolidate the plugins that I have published and which are partly outdated yet. Already in the last days numerous measures were taken to synchronize the code states and to realize a separation between the commercial part of my source codes and that of the MediaPortal Plugins. In order to be able to work at this point as purposefully as possible on the removal of problems, I hope for your support in order to know, what does not work from your point of view.

If you are using this plugin, please send me some hints regarding

• Which functionality does not work anymore and since when? Is this clearly recognizable since a certain version of MediaPortal?
• Do you have some more information and logs to reproduce the issue?
• Do you have problems with specific maintained skins? Can possible skin errors be caused by a plugin error?
• Is it your view that certain configuration settings or combinations of them are no longer applicable as before?
• Any other helpful information?

Please note that until the final consolidation no installer files will be created and fixed versions will only be published in this plugin thread. I will try to get the development work done as quickly as possible - but the daily business and private issues will continue to have priority.
​

@SpudR: since version 1.19.0 MediaPortal does not handle MMDeviceEnumerators correctly. Therefore MediaPortal and VolumeControl ends in a conflict. As you can see in logs, MediaPortal restarts due it's own error. We should take a look together.

Donations are welcome, Cheers

Micropolis​
