Default Mediaportal Update; Video

In response to a few other threads, just a quick update. (sounds like an AA meeting or confession)

It has now been 2 weeks since my last MP disaster. (I deleted the SQL database by mistake) Seems to be stable now and I think It might be finished (ok it will NEVER be finished but you know what I mean)

My Specs

Vista X86
Mediaportal 1.0.0.0
TVServer 1.0.0.0
2 x DVB-T
1X TT-1501 DVB-C
Skin StreamedMP
Plugins Moving Pictures, MYTvSeries
EPG XMLTV GUI
MCE Remote; makes MP come alive! (use the green button for alternate home screens) Disable all MCE services and use registry hack so Media centre doesnt start!)

Remote TV client = Laptop running Mp 1.0.0.0 standard over 802.11G wireless (cant always stream HD due to bitrate(not fast enough - 802.11N will be ok) but everything else stable

Short Video of main TV here YouTube - Mediaportal 1.0.0.0 using StreamedMP skin

Short Video of remote TV clent (laptop) here YouTube - Mediaportal TV Client on Laptop

Looking good, I'm using the same skin

Thought I would try out the latest SVN build, latest MP Skin and updates of MP TV Series and Moving pictures.
Final result was Mediaportal not launching, so I had to set most of it up from Scratch

I'm still loving Mediaportal but it's taken over my life, I can't stop tweaking things

I too am a Media Portal addtict now

I use the same skin too,
Moving Pictures
My TV Series
Showtimes (local cinema info and trailers)
iPiMP (use your iphone / ipod to schedule recordings and use it as a remote control - also lets you do it over the web, works fine in google chrome on my works laptop!!)

I can't keep off the forums and I'm forever tweaking messing around. I'm currently ripping all of my DVD's to my HTPC.
