[QUOTE="rusten, post: 26087, member: 10303"] Frodo, You mentioned something I've definitely observed myself for the past several months -- and I wonder if you've considered this from the high level? Quote "in fact 99.0% of all development goes in my tv " I would say that more people use MP for playing content already archived/stored on disk, than use it for MyTV. Now that may change as more tuners become available, support is better, etc -- however, there will be more and more devices made that can drop content on a disk (e.g. set-top boxes that are now coming out with "Home Media Option" style upgrades) and the original/large following of people still exist: people that play DVD's / archived TV and videos / Music/MP3's. With this in mind, from a high level decision-maker perspective, wouldn't you say that perhaps some focus should be shifted to further develop and impriove these areas? Top of my list would be (1) a better way to include all content, despite it's location (e.g. I don't have to navigate through multiple shares to find a file -- something more MS DFS where consolidating network resources within a single virtual "directory"/share), (2) native/better support for ISO's, and (3) uPnP support (where MP is a client/consumes uPnP devices). Any comment on the 99.0% statement and the possibility of increasing the priority of non-MyTV features? Thank you in advance! [/QUOTE]
