The biggest swiss PC magazine "Online PC Zeitung" has tested 6 mediacenter applications in their June 2006 edition.
MediaPortal had to compete with Sceneo TV Central, Nero Premium, Showshifter, Cyberlink Power Cinema and Intervideo Home Theater Platinum and has left them all behind in almost all categories.
Best thing is: The magazine tested version 0.2 RC2, so they have missed the best fixes in stability and many other enhancements.

MediaPortal achieved the following ranking in the various categories:

• 38 out of 45 points in features and usability (1st position)
• 28 out of 30 points in compatibility (1st position)
• 3 out of 10 points in installation, configuration and support (3rd position)
• 15 out of 15 points in stability and licencing (1st position)
