I finally retired the MeediOS website today after over 10 years running it. Its really sad to see it go but maybe others will take it up.

Anyway, I know a load of refugees are over here now Wink I'm an XBMC user and official Team member now so will endeavour to help build any good features back into XBMC. We already have Library Nodes and a Add-on front end website like openMAID is in development.

Is there anything else people miss?

Never used Meedios(just looked crazy confusing to install) but actually always checked the site as a skinner to get some inspiration. Some of the skins had some nice views/mockups...

I am very sad. I am very sick. I seem to have lost something of myself.
@ Zag:
Tell me you resend the same pain.

Welcome to XBMC! While I don't know Meedio, it sounds like the XBMC community has won an active developer.

One Q about the library nodes - I really like this feature, but would love to see it being usable through the UI without the need to mess around with manual edits of files. Any chance?

Yeah... I finished the madVR Videoplayer just in the nick of time huh? Oh well. I'll put the final code in the sourceforge SVN in case its useful to anyone. I've deleted MeediOS from one machine and have been playing with XBMC this past weekend. I definately have some setup questions which I promise to bug Zag about after I search the forums. Having written most of the MeediOS plugins, I have to say there is some relief in not needing to support all of them. Just need to figure out how to port my DiscId plugin to XBMC, but that is later down the road. Have to figure out the addin code first, but looking forward to the challenge.
