Whilst trying out a few different PVR clients over the past few days, I noticed that the site for downloading the 'TVServerKodi plugin' for the Mediaportal backend seems to be dead. The link is here: https://www.scintilla.utwente.nl/~marcel...rxbmc.html

Luckily, I still had a copy of the plugin which I downloaded at the end of last year so was able to get the Mediaportal client up and running in Kodi.
I have no idea how active the Mediaportal backend is still, but just wondering if it would be an idea for me to post a link to the copy I currently have. 
Worked for me using Mediaportal 2.1 with Matrix 19.4
It's a repo addon so why not install from repo? anyway the repo addons can be downloaded from http://mirrors.kodi.tv/addons/ so for example Windows x64 version for Matrix is at http://mirrors.kodi.tv/addons/matrix/pvr...ws-x86_64/

Going by https://github.com/kodi-pvr/pvr.mediaportal.tvserver it indeed doesn't appear to be very actively developed at the moment.
Ah I think perhaps I was confused by seeing plugin since I only just noticed it's about the backend, and not the Kodi addon client.
Here is another link to the topic but it is for MediaPortal 2.3

Good call.
Seems the link for the KodiServerPlugin posted on Wiki needs updating, as that link is now dead.
@jjd-uk  I don't think I'm able to update the Wiki link. Are you able to update this page?
Here's the Wiki page:-
Add-on:MediaPortal_PVR_Client (wiki)

Under the images on heading 3. (MediaPortal TV-Server Quick Start Guide) there is a link that is now dead (option 4).
This needs to be updated with the following link, which has a download link to the TVServerKodi plugin:-
https://users.scintilla.utwente.nl/marce...rxbmc.html

Mind you, I can't honestly remember the last time I saw a post from anybody about using Mediaportal as their backend.
Hmmz, thanks for the hint. I was not aware that the Scntilla website was changed to a different host.

Anyway, my official TVServerKodi plugin release are also hosted next to its source code repository on Github:
https://github.com/margro/TVServerXBMC/releases
I've changed the wiki link for the TVServerKodi plugin to point to the Github releases instead
