I have added the Extensions plugin here, since it depends on MPEI, even though it received enough votes for the top ten on its own. We know there is still room for improvement, notably that extensions installed via other extensions are not recognized by MPEI, and we hope to see even more great developments of the user interface and integration with MP in 2012! Extensions plugin In 2011, arion_p developed a Version Compatibility system for MediaPortal which Migue then incorporated into MPEI, so you never need to worry about installing incompatible extensions again! Thanks for making our lives so much easier! MediaPortal Extension Installer (MPEI)Ģ011 saw our Extension installer really take off! Originally developed by Dukus and released in 2010, now over 110 extensions use MPEI and make installing, updating and uninstalling your extensions a breeze. With the vast array of hardware and configurations, and the flexibility MediaPortal offers, this is no small achievement! It is one many popular commercial applications would envy and I think the entire community should be incredibly proud of what we have accomplished. They donated many hours of their time to improve stability and ensure it was maintained with all the new features we added to MediaPortal 1.2.0. In 2011 we increased our number of testers and developers significantly. It reflects a huge effort by the whole community, including those who test alpha, beta and RC releases, submit bug reports, submit patches to fix issues or add new features, and develop our top notch extensions. The increased stability of MediaPortal in 2011, was the top development selected, by far. So fasten your seat belts and enjoy the ride! 1. Development of MediaPortal shows no signs of slowing down for 2012. There was so much development in so many areas in 2011, it is not easy to stay on top of it all! Read on to see what I mean. What a great year for MediaPortal! I hope I have not forgotten anyone or anything.

Although the results speak for themselves, I thought it would be interesting to elaborate a bit on the top ten developments you selected for 2011. First, thanks to all who proposed suggestions in the Comments thread and voted on the poll.
