OK, so I have c:\Movies c:\TVShows Set each as an independent video source. Here's the deal though. With Movies they are each in their own folder so have Folders are Movies set to yes.

One day perhaps I wont be such a n00b, but in the meantime, thank you, your feedback is exactly what I needed to fix my issue. I can't recall why I disabled it originally, possibly one of the troubleshooting tips, but I thought I had re-enabled it. I did not realize I had to manually restart the service like you explained since...

MP1 MP2 break out of kiosk? DE
Think we are saying the same thing. Either way I have no clue in this app how to do this but sounds like I'll have to find considerable time to figure it out. In Kodi the ability to map my buttons to a function in the app were pretty simple. Here I'm not seeing it clearly but may just be me. Thinking I just need to figure it out...

What is the best tool for scraping movie information into each movies folder (named with same name as movie), to use MP1 off network?

Yes, I think you are right about this possibly being a Windows 10 problem. Mostly because I didn't touch MP or it's settings, it just got broken while I was away. I read somewhere (unfortunately I don't have a link to it right now) that the latest major update to Windows 10, Creators Update, removed some parts of windows file sharing...

I wouldn't. Recovery should be quite easy, as per my response in your other thread. Reverting to defaults for the client - without considering plugins - is usually as simple as deleting the main settings file (c:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\MediaPortal.xml). However, reverting to defaults won't necessarily solve...

Alright, here comes the update. I did a new recording of a HD stream and watched it on the client without MCEbuddy used. Worked fine, no stutter. Then ran MCEBuddy and it also worked fine :-) That puzzled me a bit. So I checked the TV cards for discontinuities, but there were none. Actually - to whatever reason - a couple of recent...

Hello When exactly (date and time) did the problem occur? The log files aren't exactly... clear... on this point. (Please always specify this when asking for assistance.) Unfortunately the log files are also only info-level. Any chance you could change log level to debug and provide new log files after the next occurrence?

Been there, done that. This will take some time. I have a collection of 5. Windows Update does not offer me this, presumably because it was included in the roll-ups which I installed (see this).

MP1 MP2 Live TV scanning DE
Okay. Without access to more information - particularly log files - I can only speculate... The frequencies that TV Server (MediaPortal) version 1.17 scans when you select "Australia" -> "NSW - Sydney" match the details found at the linked website, and also the details on the official ACMA website. Therefore, all channels should be...
