TVServerKodi plugin - Dumyat - 2022-04-20
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/~marcelg/xbmc/tvserverxbmc.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.mediaportal.tvserver+windows-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.

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/marcelg/xbmc/tvserverxbmc.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
RE: TVServerKodi plugin - margro - 2022-04-26
I've changed the wiki link for the TVServerKodi plugin to point to the Github releases instead
