    May be some things could be added in the Wiki dev page there :
    MediaPortal1_Development/CompilingMediaPortal - MediaPortal Manual Documentation

    When we want to compile C++ filters with Microsoft DirectX SDK from November 2008, to avoid dxerr9.h not found error, we have to go in tool->option->Projects and solutions->VC++ Directories and add this paths inside include and lib tabs (sorry, pictures are in french) :

    What do you think about ?

    Direct SDK from March 2009 works fine. But you have a very valid point about changing the recommendation from "the latest" to March 2009. Also windows SDK had to be v61 for filter compilation to work for me.

    At least I didn't have to manually add the directories you point to. Just make sure you follow the instructions in #5 to the letter, especially concerning trailing "\". This should probably be emphasized in the text.

    Hi Seidelin,
    Yes, I'm pretty sure it's a miss in DX SDK from November 2008 I have on DVD then, not directly MP related but, exist with this DX version.

    Yes absolutely, this is very well explained in wiki and compile is working fine here.
    :D for your answer.

    I just wanted to add that the MSBuild compilation section in that wiki page did not work for me initially. I needed to use v3.5 (not v2.0.50727) as follows (single line):

    "%WINDIR%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5\MSBuild.exe" MediaPortal.sln /target:Rebuild /property:Configuration=Release

    I am running Win7 x86, so it most likely depends on the .NET framework and associated SDK that are installed :)
