    We are inside MP2 part of forum ;)

    @wolfe: MP2 should install and run on Win8 without issues. There were already threads about this topic. If it fails for you, please provide more details, logs and screenshots.

    Windows 8 is added as supported OS some time ago.
    The Winter Release is the recent version and a lot newer than the MP2-Setup-Alpha-Release.msi. ATM the devs are working on the Spring release (maybe Alpha2 or an early Beta).

    The only changes I see are: Updated Marcel Groothuis version of the plugin to now support Media Portal 2.5 I can't say anything about the functionality of this plugin, I don't use TV Part, but if there are any changes that can be simply transferred, then I can try. But I can't give any guarantees.

    Just those I attached. I messed about with task priorities MP/TV-Server/SQL-Server and the issue changed to the skin.. I would do something, but it would be 10's of seconds before the action happened. Doing an Alt-Tab would flush the actions. Too weird lol!! So, with some flak from the family, I had to give in. I just did a...
