Gisteren hebben de ontwikkelaars achter Media Portal eindelijk de finalrelease van versie 0.2.3.0 uitgebracht. Met Media Portal kan een Windows XP-machine als het hart van de multimedia hardware in de huiskamer worden gebruikt. Zo kan er op een eenvoudige manier naar radio en muziek worden geluisterd, naar video's en dvd's worden gekeken en kunnen tv-programma's worden opgenomen. Door middel van plugins en extensions kan de functionaliteit worden uitgebreid en de look & feel van het programma worden aangepast. De release notes van deze versie hebben het volgende te melden over deze uitgave:
