MP1 MP2 screensavers DE
what's the best way to make a screensaver work alongside MP? i'm having difficulties i want to use the windows screensaver in case the system is left switched on with MP switched off (i have a plasma so burn-in happens easily). also because the only option within MP is the screen blanking, but i think that blanking the screen...

Designed for rule based TV scheduling. It replaces the MP TVplugin. It can still use TVServer in the backgound. Check out their website and documentation. Also see this threads where the steps you want to do are explained. https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/mediaportal-1-talk-45/second-mediaportal-sat-card-possible-68519/...

I came across this thread because I am having the same problem with empty folders being left after older episodes are deleted. I was playing around with a script that uses the "rmdir" command and it was coming back as if the folder wasn't actually empty, and I realized that there was still a "Thumbs.db" hidden system file in the...

I don't know for sure 100%, but I would say no, this isn't possible. It would be tricky enough getting Windows to boot and run from a BluRay disk, but getting a complex system like MP with databases and artwork caches running would be, I suspect, impossible.

Hi there I am guessing that the conflicting channels are on transponders with opposite polarities. Vertical transponders (eg. SBS, Optus D2) are selected with 13V. Horizontal transponders (eg. Sky, Freeview) are selected with 18V. Your all-ports-power-pass splitter will pass the highest voltage to the LNB, so if you are trying to...

Hello all, I've recently discovered Mediaportal and have installed it on about 5 PC's so far. My latest install, my dedicated TV server, went fine. I pretty much set everything up the way I liked it. Only the TV Server needed some tuning. I didn't touch MP Config in the process. I finished the TV Server setup and now I'm stuck with a...

MP1 MP2 MP Resizing DE
Hi justplayin59 Having just switched from a CRT and using S-VHS to HDMI I am experiencing the same issue. This appears to be a problem with Windows 7 and HDMI handshaking. My understanding from a quick read is that when the HDMI device is off (receiver or TV) Windows does not know its resolution so defaults to the lowest. There...
