    This is a long-time wish from me, too. I think it would greatly improve the user experience. Especially for users who download and install and never use forum or wiki.

    And I really want to thank pbb for the tremendous work he put in the wiki the last weeks. Also the other contibutors but he is really standing out at the moment.

    As for the integrated help system there might be the need to create special wiki pages for this purpose?

    some thoughts:

    # more condensed with less text

    # possibility for content listing like the context menu
    ## 1. Available keys/actions
    ## 2. Screen elements
    ## 3. FAQ
    ## 4. Tips & Tricks
    ## 5. Other

    # more screen-orientated help pages
    ## with basic remote/keyboard actions
    ## with explanation of the buttons and other screen elements

    # maybe a structure for these pages that allows for localisation
    like
    mp/music/buttons/eng
    mp/music/buttons/swe
    ...

    with a fallback to english if no localized page is available

    Some help/starting-point for the programming could be

    Nothing is happening!

    Is this a bad idea? Would anyone like to comment?
    Or are there just no bored developers with nothing too do? ;)

    I made some updates to the Wiki page describing the <import> and <include> tags, including adding a couple of new xml examples. For the first example, I highlighted the example text and eventually found the location in the menus where I could select the CODE macro to have the example text formatted as a code example. So far, so good...

    I do not know why this xml was in my theme folders, it must have sneaked in some time ago (years?). I simply removed the file. The Latest Media Handler plugin seems to be working as expected. I've had no lock-ups.

    Got a reply from SD ... "Looks like your last successful download was on 5/23. On 5/24 for some reason we received 194 connections between 10:54 and 11:05 triggering a denial of service attack ban. The logs show it was lifted on 5/25, but I still see the entry in iptables. I reset fail2ban and hopefully you're working again." Weird...

    The only configuration that is certain to work is when the MP client and MP server are from the same release. It is sometimes possible to use MP clients from a release that is different to the MP server, but whether it works depends on the specific changes that were made between the two releases. -- from CyberSimian in the UK
