Post problems you have when using MediaPortal, or pre installation questions in here.
The skipping twice may be an issue if you have the ATI software running and the Mediaportal software running, as they both detect certain keys (ie up and down) and so each press gets read twice. I recommend disabling the ATI software (remove it from the software starting on your system in regedit) and just activating the remote in...

Sorry, I forgot to update here. It turns out that my problem was due to running MP from an account with "Power user" instead of "Administrator" privileges. "Power user" is enough for music functions, but not enough fo TV. I can only second slobi's advice above: I have also had good experience with the new Hauppauge drivers, even...

Ok, seems like I solved it through Nemulate's suggestion. Seems it was the skin (Blue Two Wide), because even outside "My TV", when resizing it would just resize the fonts and cramp everything on the same space as before going fullscreen (real fullscreen zion22, through options->fullscreen :) ). Changing the skin to the default Blue...

Well, I don't think it's a codec issue. As I said - everything is working fine in Media Player Classic and files render correctly in Graphedit. You can checkout screenshot in attachment. I think it's a problem with MP and I need some directions regarding it.

MP1 MP2 Aspect ratio issues DE
Hi Mat. I think if you select the 'Normal' aspect ratio in MP during playback, it should display all video in its correct aspect ratio. No need to zoom in or select letterbox or anything. At least that's how my setup seems to behave. Edit: Didn't realize that you were talking about tv, Hmm, the above should work if MP...

MKV - Subtitles Since I did a quick run down of how to get multiple audio tracks running, I figure I would explain what I did for MKV files with subtitles. By default, for me, Media Portal plays MKV files fine and if the file has a *.srt subtitle with the same name as the film in the same directory (ex: Movie.mkv, Movie.srt) the...

If I remember right, MCE can be configured to control the STB using a blaster as well as firewire. Its been a while since I had MCE and FireSTB working, so I am a little fuzzy.
