The reason we provide you a beta release is that although our test team has tested this release extensivly, we still expect issues when a large userbase is going to try the new tv server for the very first time. Feel free to report any issue you have but please follow the following rules to make life easier for us.
Before reporting any issues, please take a look in our tv engine wiki and mantis. Perhaps there is already a solution for your problem, or its already in Mantis.
If you report issues, then please do so in the appropiate forum topic

Please read the installation guide on how to install and setup!
Note you will need the LATEST svn of MediaPortal (not 0.2.1.0) and since other skins are not updated yet, use the BlueTwo skin!
