Create a plugin for MediaPortal #266

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
One could create a (GUI or window) plugin for MediaPortal to display CPU usage, 
temperature and similar information. Plugins for MediaPortal are developed in 
C#, so this should simplify things:

One could write a standalone plugin using the OpenHardwareMonitorLibrary, but 
then MediaPortal would need to be run with admin rights as well. A better 
solution would be to connect to an Open Hardware Monitor instance running in a 
seperate process (in the background). This could be done using the current WMI 
interface, or an alternative pipe or tcp based solution.
