How to change channels while viewing a channel EPG

jab76 · 2008-05-18, 15:52

Hi there,

MCE2005 did almost everything I wanted, but then Vista came along and ruined it. Therefore, I switched to MP and I absolutely love it. Right now I've set up a tv client to watch tv and recordings on a client pc and it took me just about five minutes to get it working. Fantastic!

There's just one thing that anoys me and I hope someone can help.
I like browsing through the EPG per channel. For instance: I go to the first channel and can see what programs that channel will show that evening. Then I want to see the same for the next channel, then the next and so on. In MCE I could do this by simply pressing the channel up button, but in MP this doesn't work.

Now I saw that you can change a lot of settings in the remote control setup, but I don´t know where to begin. Does anyone have any ideas?

Highlight the channel name and select.

Welcome to MP, glad you found it reasonable to setup.

Regards

Thanks for the welcome! Setting up the tv-client was easy. MP/tv-server itself took some more effort, but nothing the threads in this forum and others couldn't solve.

I think you reffering to how you can watch the programs of a particular channel. This I figured out by highlighting a channel from the EPG on the left and by pressing select (just like MCE). But now I want to skip channels up and down from this view. In MCE you could do this by pressing channel up/down on this page.
