Unable to install MediaPortal as tv client

HDTV · 2008-05-17, 14:03

Hi

I want to do a new install of the MP tv client. I had the tv client before but I install alot of skins and plugins, so I would like to install fresh copi. But every time I'm keep endning up with "normal" MP, where I can add capture cards etc.

I choose "advanced install" during setup, choose Mediaportal client setup.

I'm on an Vista Ultimate SP1 machine with MediaPortal_Setup_1.0_RC1_Refesh.

EDIT:
I followed this guide also
My manual on how to install a Mediaportal client on Vista using the tvserverplugin

You have not installed the TVServer client plugin, that why you can only see the old MyTV setup.

Quickest way is to download latest svn (link on Homepage) install the mediaportal update first, then update the TVServer and client plugin (uninstall old first).
