Post problems you have when using MediaPortal, or pre installation questions in here.
eventghost has a mediaportal plugin. You may be able to run the remote through that. In any case it would tell you whats happening when you press the arrow keys (provides key codes when the presses are detected) What does log say when u use the arrow keys?

MP1 MP2 Episode Management DE
I just upgraded to MP 1.0.1 from RC3. In RC3 the episode management worked great but the options in 1.0.1 are greyed out even after I have selected to record a program. If I set a program to record then exit out and go into the scheduled recordings I can then adjust the episode management but not when selecting a recording from...

Update: it's getting quite weird :S It seems that MP only crashes when files are played from a specific (internal) harddisk. The movies on the OS harddisk seem to crash after a random amount of time, while movies from the DATA harddisk seem to work fine. The weird thing is: streaming the movie works fine when tested with thePopcorn...

MP1 MP2 External Scaler? DE
As far as I know interlaced signal is not sent through HDMI with normal operation, that means that you have to change the resolution AND operation method (interlaced or de-interlaced). I don't even know if your scaler support interlaced signal over HDMI? Does it even support non-standard resolutions (usually 640x480, 1280x720 and...

Okay, this helps me alot. My navigations in my cover arts are faster now. But when i go to the next pages on my music list. It's lags still. But when the current pages are loaded I can navigate between the 20 covers fast? I can see my CPU use 80-90% in idle on the music pages or home pages.? hmm.

Hello Sintei, I went to control panel, sound, playback, ATI HDMI Output properties, supported formats, and clicked on DTS and Dolby Digital.

Hi meggsico, and welcome to the forum :) I'd recommend that you get a card with hardware encoding capabilities. Reasons: - Will not chew your CPU (--> lower noise) - Will work well with MP (as all hardware encoding cards are supported) They bad side is that they are a bit more expensive. I have the Hauppauge PVR-150, and most who...

I completely agree with ryan, MovingPictures is awesome! I highly recommend at least giving it a shot.

Thanks for your fast reply. Shift+1 is a good hint - and indeed the framerate is not as it is supposed to be. Sometimes is displays an average of about 20 fps, sometimes 45 fps. As I use a PAL source, both values seem wrong to me (they should either be 25 fps or 50 fps). HD-Video-Files (.mkv) seem to play back correctly at 23,96 fps...

MP1 MP2 MP Will Not Start DE
HTPC_Sourcer Thanks for the reply. You were spot on. I think I must have had a corrupted file. To solve I just installed 1.0.1 - the install loaded a newer DirectX version. I wasn't really ready to go to 1.0.1, but what the heck - at least MP is now working.

Thanks for your fast answer. It's a Win7 RC installation (unsupported by MP, I'm aware of that!), but as it is very close to Vista, I sure will check that VirtualStore out.
