1: Channel Switching takes too long time, both on DVB-T and especially on my Hauppauge MCE150+500MCE. My TV-APP "FLYTV2000" change channel INSTANTLY, were Mediaportal tak 2-3 second
2: Image quality is bad. Missing depth in colors and picturesharpness.
3: MyTV is NOT a Out-Of The Box solution. Way to many thing to setup, and after that, you'll have to find some workarounds in the forums, because there still some small bugs.
Sub-reasons:
EPG is TOTALLY without ease of use. I know it is implemented in the Installation guide, but i have never seen it working without manual setup.
Timeshifting/Recording occasionally crashes MyTV.
Overall:
MyTV keeps getting more and more complex. Developers seem more keen on getting new features than getting the Main features working 110% I see it as a big step backwards, that TVE 0.3 was implemented. TVE 0.2 was not even stable enough. But now its done and we have to look forward.
Suggestion for TVE 0.3:
Keep it SIMPLE! Stop developing new features and complex setup options and trying to fulfill every users need for a specific feature. Get a 110% stable and Simple Out-Of-The-Box solution that WORKS! Mediaportal could have many more users, if only the main features in MyTV is working 110% |
@all
its understandable that some users are frustrated because of the issues they suffer.
BUT THIS IS NOT THE RIGHT FORUM FOR THAT!
