Sorry, didn't realize. Since I moved to Windows 7 I am suffering from the following issue (that never occured with XP): TV starts quite normally, but after some time the picture starts stuttering. This stuttering _always_ comes along with a quite heavy harddisk movement. It seems as if there's a buffer filled first, then written...

Oh! Now I get it... Hi, Three words: Overheating Network Cable Why did it only go wrong in the morning? Why did it work fine in the afternoon?

yep, I meant alarm one, not the ring actually, you're right. And yeah your also right about the flexibility but I do not need it as the machine in question acts as a webserver during the day (which gets powered of on weekdays @ 1:00 and wakeup @ 9:00) Now back to the issue @ hand here. As already remarked by Mr Hipp it might have to...

The database files to which I refer to are those for my Moving Pictures and My TV Series plugins, I usually copy them over as to prevent having to rescan for them as it can take a while. In saying that, I don't see how that really would of caused the issue in the first place but I thought I would remove any sort of variable that may...

I had a 1TB WD Green edition. It used to cause my system to stutter and even cause a crash resulting in a blank screen. Always tested OK but I eventually had it replaced. Brand new replacement did exactly the same so I sent it back, got a refund and bought a 1TB Samsung F3 and all my problems disappeared!

What I ended up doing was uninstalling (but keeping all my preferences and settings) mediaportal, and upgrading it to version 1.0.2 , as well as deleting the Xfactor skin (shame since it is the best looking) and using Xface instead, I don't have the lock ups like before, I do get main menu lockups for some reason, but as soon as I go...

When this arrives you can have 2 links to moving pictures in the home menu, each one starting within a different category. Until then you can setup a...

Solved my own problem - ended up having nothing to do with the remote or MediaPortal. On a hunch I unplugged my USB IR Receiver, then plugged it back in, and the problem went away completely.

Yes the devs probably do, but soft CAMs are specifically unsupported due to being pretty dodgy legally. Pretty sure CCcam used to trigger the swear filter on here at one point.

Well, I was actually hoping that someone would simply have a suggestion of something I could check myself, so that nobody would have to waste time going through my logs for something of such low priority.
