Hi George,
Welcome to MediaPortal!
I have not had any major problems setting up MediaPortal for DBV-T. Just a few little things to get used to and to track down in the configutation program - BUT there is a lot of help available, particularly on this forum.
I originally changed to MediaPortal as MCE did not work with my video card or my remote, and I have not looked back. I have an older Compro TV card and I now use HIP interface software with the Compro2HIP addon. As you have full access to all of the keyboard shortcuts in the configuration program, it is possible to set up MediaPortal to work with just about any remote.
There is a lot of documentation available for setting up MP to work with your MCE remote.
It is a very good, very actively developing application - and it is great value for money!!! You should give it a try. If you use the standard version of MP without the TV Engine, it is a very simple installation (with TV engine, you need to install either MySQL or MSSQL Express as well - though the documentation is very good for this).
