MP1 MP2 Message of the Day? DE
Just wondering if anyone has worked out a "Message of the Day" plugin of some kind for MediaPortal. I can do a little programming in Delphi, but I'm not up to the newer stuff. Sigh. I would basically like to have a message popup on MediaPortal load - according to date (as in "This day in History") from a text file. If anyone...

Okay, found the answer. The default view in the search window is genre and for some reason you can't search in that view. Change to title and away I go.... Matt.

It looks like it can't find a file related to the GUI. I'm no expert on MP errors but the first thing I would do is go into the Mediaportal config (if it loads) and change to Blue3wide or possibly reinstall your current skin.

Moving right along... Since installing of the standalone MPC filters baffled me, I tried installing the MPC package in its entirety, a very modest sized thing, believing that the desired AV decoders would install with that. Nope, it didn't happen, so I have to go back to MP install to get usable decoders. :growl: :S

Hi there, The two options I have found are: 1) Configure my "standby button" on my remote not to turn off the HTPC (but turn off TV and surround), but return it to the home screen. Then configure PowerScheduler (client) to allow standby after lets say 10 minutes, but only when on the home screen 2) Utilise the new GMPS plugin...

Kiwi, I tried disabling all ATI processes, and no joy. I am going to try to unistall cat 9.12 and go back to 9.9. I also have an issue with the HTPC periodically crashing. Sometimes i get artifacts on the screen after the crash and sometimes soundloops. Another annoying ATI thing. I wish i had gone with a Nvidia solution! Darren

The picture quality should be same whichever renderer you use, the only difference is if your pc setup can make FULL use of the chosen renderer, I use EVR for both XP and Vista\Win7, for me it just seems smoother. But as the old saying goes, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder", so everyone has there own opinion about this :)...

Hello, OK no worries, possibly your DHCP server assigning the same IP address to your laptop that was set manually on your HTPC? Anyway MediaPortal is a great product, I must agree!!! Really looking forward to v1.1 and MP II. Thanks. Gary.
