    What is not workable and what are you missing? Different to MP1, which requires several plugins to have a base functionality, MP2 has everything included: movies, series, audio, applauncher, subtitledownloader, fanart, weather, news, 3 different tv engines!
    Emulators and webradio are valuable plugins ready for download. Generally the community can develop own plugins.

    Hello ge2301,
    It's good that the main thinks are all included. I don't like it if I have to search for everythink for a plugin. As example I have the Problem that I can't play mkv files. Another example is that I want to hear to a specific genre I can't see the albums which I have in that genre, I get a unsorted list of Tracks. I too mis a playing List. Such things make it for me in the moment hard to use MP.

    There is no plugin for this, you need to install a codec, so windows can play mkv files. By default LAV should besically do it. If you search in the forum you can find several threads with solutions.

    No plugin is needed for this, it's part of the base functionality. I recommend to first check the wiki.
    In library view just select "Filter" in the menu und select then "Genre" and you have a genre list. Alternatively you can just select the filter quick access in home screen (first screenshot).

    Also this is possible out of the box. Please check the wiki.

    Ah OK, thanks for the hints. I will read the wike. For mkv I was using VLC and there it's not needed to install anything special for it, that's why I thought it could be a missing plugin.

    For the Albums of the Genre I was using the button you showed but in the and I got an Tracklich of this Genre not an Album list but I will check the wiki.

    Thanks for the fast answer.

    This is for the tvserver, the iptv part. It used to only support m3u files containing all the channels, but now you can use a m3u8 too. Usually you get an m3u8 from your iptv provider, but there are also some that can be found on the internet
