    Just installed and did a quick run through, looks good. I threw a couple screenshots on my blog (http://dbone1026.blogspot.com/2009/06/media-browser-21-screenshots.html). I have to give it a more thorough run through this weekend. Definitely exciting!!!

    Awesome!. Thanks for the screenshots already. I have been excited for this release for some time now, and now I have to wait until I get off work to go install. This day is going to go by really slow, I can feel it...  Are you running Win7 or Vista? Have the stability issues with 7 been resolved with this release?

    I have been running Media Browser on my 2 HTPCs (w7 x64) and my desktop PC (Vista x32). I only had a chnace to install the latest version on my desktop (the benefits of being able to remote in to my PC from work :-) ). Haven't had a chance to test out too much MB 2.1, but it ran smooth the few minutes I had playing around with it. The only issues I have had with MB (v2.0.11) on my W7 machines is that if I hit the stop button too many times by accident while watching a movie MB would freeze up on me.

    You can bet I plan on running the newest version through the ringer tonight and this weekend!!

    Sadly - I am going to use 2 vacation hours so I can go home at 3 and get this running for the weekend.  I just want to have time to go over stuff before the wife comes home.  I think this is the first time using vacation for software :)

    I won't say how many times I have. :)

    I won't be able to truly play with this new version because I have to rebuild my Media Center this weekend. I'm running out to Fry's to pickup a new MB and Processor because I have been fighting hardware issues for 3 days and i am fed up with it.

    There are some problems with this release (as noted in the bugs thread on the MB forum).
    No actor Images
    Slow "reload" time for cached images (every time you restart MB, they reload!).

    On a plus note, the new Diamond theme is excellent!

    I had the same problem a month ago (3+ year old Asus Board).  I picked up the ASUS P5N7A-VM.  It has everything onboard for a media center so almost no heat, HDMI out.  Over all very happy with it.  Windows 7 RC, and Nvidia has the one driver (180 Megs) that has all the drivers for the mother board.  So really, install Windows 7, install one driver, reboot.  All is good.  Only 110 bucks.

    I have to go see wha they are.  But also feel that I should give back to Sam and his team - so if I can find a bug, I'll post it.

    I left a post as well on the MB forum regarding Actor Images not showing. If you hit refresh you lose your backdrop as well (the message sunk in after I tried it on 4 different movies!!!)

    Re: Mediabrowser 2.1(not 3.0) finally released

    I first tried installing 2.1 over 2.0 and got the dreaded invalid application error so I uninstalled and then reinstalled. Still have the error. I have installed all the plugins so I am going to uninstall them all and start from scratch. I also added some podcasts so maybe thats the problem.
    Any suggestions?
