Media Portal 1.1 Alpha [New Release!!!]

MediaPortal is an Open Source application ideal for turning your PC / TV into a very advanced Media Center. MediaPortal allows you to listen to your favorite music & radio, watch and store your videos and DVDs, view, schedule and record live TV as a digital video recorder and much much more. You get MediaPortal as Open Source software. This means you can help in developing MediaPortal or tweak it for your own needs with lots of innovating plugins from our great community.

Major changes in this ALPHA:

* old, unsupported TV-Engine (TVE2) was removed
(together with all related plugins - WepEPG is currently ported to TV-Server, which will be available in 1.1.0 RC1)
* first steps to support Windows 7 and Vista+TV-Pack
* UAC compatibillty enhancements:
following folders are now also located in Program Data\TeamMediaPortal\MediaPortal
- Tuningdetails
- Languages
- Skins
* IP-TV support has been added to TV-Server
* access CI-menu from inside MyTV and TV-Server configuration
* integration of MPC-HC subtitles engine
(no need for any 3rd party filters any more to get subtitles to work)
* updated installer to use MySQL 5.1 64bit on 64bit OS'es
* MySQL 5.1 is now the default SQL-Server on a fresh installation.
(you can still use your already present SQL-Server as this effects only systems where no SQL-Server is present)

Benefits compared to MS SQL-Server:
- works nicely on Windows 7 RC1 32 and 64 bit
- uses less system resources than MS SQL Server
- much easier to deploy (automatic download/install of MS SQL 2008 is not possible on Windows 7)
Note: If you want to use MS SQL 2008 Express SP1, then you have to install it manually.
* Skinchanges:
- brand new OSD for MyTV, MyVideos and DVD
(still work in progress (Zap OSD still missing) and only available for Blue3wide at the moment) You can show the osd by using "i" button on your remote or "y" button on your keyboard.
- VU-Meter in MyMusic (off per default, has to be enabled in MP Configuration - only available in Blue3wide at the moment)
