[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 4923"] I was infact thinking of cassini as I used it to create pages for my KISS DP-500 and to stream AVI's to it. It's been so long since I used it I forgot the name. VNC is of course the easiest way to manage it so far, I just don't find it very elegant. Webservices sound great until you realize that each plugin would need it's own and you will still need to run a webserver on the machine and you would need a client to consume the service. If however cassini was integrated the plugins could output their own UI (based on the UI or a custom UI) Then all you would need to do is to browse directly to the HTPC. Your right I do generally know my C# I should do I have programming in c# professionally for 4 years now. I have written alot of directshow stuff in c# using interop. I have also done some direct3d but only the basics. Anyway I think mediaportal is the best media player ever period and I would love to contribute.
