Software update: Media Portal 0.1.0.6

The guys behind Media Portal have just released version 0.1.0.6 of the HTPC software. With this program, a Windows PC can be turned into an HTPC. This makes it easy to watch or listen to radio, music, video and DVDs. In addition, it is also able to record TV programs and the appearance can be adjusted by means of so-called skins. The full list of changes is up this one page, but these are the main ones:

Here is the short version of what is new:

• Teletext added for dvb-s/c/t (not for analog)
• Zoomed thumbs
• My videos/music/pictures remember view
