Post problems you have when using MediaPortal, or pre installation questions in here.
I maybe the only person who has done this but if not I wanted to port it in case someone else has the issue. I had installed MP on my Windows 7 knowing that when I updated to Windows 10 I would loose my Media Center. All went fine. I upgraded to 10 and everything was still working great...until one day I found that none of my...

Unfortunately I do not know exact time because dialog is coming every now and then while PC is not used (sleeping while not recording or collecting epg etc.) I have not ever seen dialog appearing while using PC. I'll try to do some test and keep TV on to see if I'll see dialog coming.

@Joker09 Please accept my apologies - I don't know how I missed your reply. :oops: Your log files show exactly what is going on. When the screen turns off (screensaver), MP is notified that the screen is off and that the HDMI audio connection has been dropped. The audio connection part is the part that causes what you saw. Although...

Hi Screen shot solves the mystery update issue - these are plugin's and not MePo itself(y) For certain updates [probably many] if the plugin is updated then MePo would need to stop to allow completion and then be restarted. Personally, I would disable the automatic update and simply do it by hand periodically [unless there is a...

I had totally missed that there was another reply on this thread. Thanks for such a complete answer, mm. I got the picture.

Of course, stopping should be still done only when the end-time was...

I had the same question when moving from Windows Media Center to MediaPortal. Not that Windows Media Center did a good job at that with Swedish EPG guide data, but anyway. The way I solve this is by scheduling everything using the plugin TvWishlist. This gives you a great deal of control over recordings. It's algorithm for figuring...

It seems to be wanting to delete a file that doesn't exist. But having restarted and cleared any faults, the error still appears in the logs. I don't think that's the problem. I'll have to keep digging. Any help is much appreciated. Two logs attached, one before and one after the restart.

So just a follow up. Under the music settings there is an output box. It is set at 100. I though that this was a percentage, but when ever I changed it nothing seemed to happen.

The short answer is I tried many combinations and didn't seem to get consistency. I only use it occasionally as I'm transitioning to it, and the temperamental nature kept me off it.
