I'm hoping someone in here has some helpful hints for me to get it to this point. :) 1/ Channel changes are a glitchy. When...

Hey, I'm wondering if it's possible to make MediaPortal show other file extensions than just video while browsing? What I'm trying to accomplish is basically to configure so that MediaPortal uses Dziobas RAR Player to play files by default and that way I won't have to unzip files manually all the time. Is this possible in any way...

Hi coopers, Seems to have worked for most people - I certainly haven't had any problems with sound drop-outs since using ffdshow. As to whether it's the only fix, I don't know. In terms of configuring it, I just leave all the devices, etc. as the default. Cheers, Craig

Hi, if you are not using TV Server. You can check the option "minimize to tray on exit". This way MP will not close on exit (eg. through ALT-F4) it will minimize to tray instead and therefor still record. Right click on the icon will allow you to bring it back to fullscreen. Flip.

It's nothing to do with processing\memory power, it's all graphics related, so they need to fully support dx9 with at least 128mb of video memory. No experience with your setup, but as i said try and see if there is a graphics chipset update, has been known to work wonders. Regards

Fixed! Luckily I was able to solve this myself by doing the following: 1) Uninstalling SP3 2) Reverting to older catalyst drivers 3) Uninstalling Hauppage TV card driver After a reboot it was still installed but the TV channels had started working again. After that I could reinstall SP3 without a problem.
