i don't know who has been keeping track, but with media portal being opensource and all, it is on track to be the best media center software for windows. one of the key features for the ultimate home theatre setup is the integration with dvb cards. i was wondering if now that dvb card support is being developed, if there was any collaboration between xbmc devs, and media portal devs, on a control interface for a dedicated mediaportal server.

i'll use myth as an example here. i know that there is a python plugin for controling a myth backend server from xbmc.myth was designed to be a server/client, or backend/frontend platform.
i can't help but wonder, since media portal is ported from xbmc, if a control interface couldn't be more tightly integrated, ala tivo media expander style(2 tivo's talking to each other)

damn, that's an itchy trigger finger...
how about this search?
media portal search in xbmc forum

development is exactly where this belongs.
there is nothing, and if you have a link to be more helpful, that would be great!

otherwise, i'm no newbie, and
well, i'm a coder,
and i'm looking for a project to dive into,
and this may be an official i'm starting this thread!

i haven't seen this mentioned, and if it exists, it needs to be sticky somewhere.

wait....
leave out the space in a mediaportal search, and there is a thread under feature suggestions(of all places)
so,
i'll kill this thread, and link for others.
