MediaPortal 2.3.1 for Windows – Download

MediaPortal is an open source project that aims to develop software capable of turning a computer or TV into an authentic multimedia center.

The origin of this project is on the XBOX console. The project supervisor was tired of the fact that this device was simply not prepared for this system, so it adapted to Windows.

Have you ever heard of Windows Media Center? Yes? MediaPortal is the GNU alternative to this Microsoft program. Even its interface is similar!

But … what can you do about it? Many things. For starters, if your computer has a TV tuner card, you can watch TV and program it to record your favorite shows, with support for various international TV formats.

But not only television – but also radio. If your receiver supports radio, MediaPortal lets you manage all available stations.

In addition, you can watch DVDs and get information about what you play online. The program receives its information from “The Internet Movie Database”, IMDB.

MediaPortal also lets you listen to all the audio files on your system and create your own playlists. And do not forget your photos, which, of course, you can see on your TV or computer screen.

Finally, RSS feeds and weather information are among the other features you will be able to access through this amazing tool that is still under development.
