The first problem I would say is that DUGG no longer gives you valid XML. It's a shame, but the programmer decided it wasn't worth the hassle of playing all the games the TV stations want to play with their guides See angusmann's post here My suggestion would be to use the WebEPG program for your EPG. If you're still having...

Howdy! :) I've also got a WinFast DTV 2000 H and am trying to find out how to tune in the analog channels. MP only recognises it as a digital card, so I tried to "add a new card" so it would recognise the analog component, but it only detects the one digital card. I've followed the instructions for "How to get my card...

Sorry you can't. The relative paths are hardcoded. You may nonetheless give a try to NTFS junction points (kinda soft links for Windows). Here is a link to a third-party tool that works without too much hassle: http://www.elsdoerfer.info/ntfslink/ It avoids messing with Windows internal commands which is GOOD.

4 seconds per line is not all wrong. The problem is that when the text start to move it gets hard to read from a distance. so the reading is somewhat slower. its no problem when viewed up close.
