Hmm, I still can't get this damn DVD drive to function properly. Reinstalled WinDVD and now I get the studio logo from discs playing, including WMP and MP, then a freeze. I have disabled the error reporting to stop the CPU bottleneck. I have no idea why this suddenly started. I have tried all versions of 0.2.0 including the...

Just reread my post and see that it was a tad confusing. I wasn't wanting to use myblaster with HIP. It is just that HIP and myblaster are the only two progs I know of which I can use to control my IR blaster to the STB. I have to use IR as no other interface available i.e serial. My blaster doesnt want to work properly as per an...

I did clean install and then installed update. I can choose FireDTV remote from setup and everything seems to be alright, but nothing happens when I start MP. I also tried some of newer SVN snapshots, but the problem stays. It seems that it stopped working after July 22.

Correct me if I am wrong but it would appear from your post that you are bringing the RF from the STB into your PC on a fixed channel. MP does not appear to support that. From what I have read you will need to bring the A/V into the htpc either using component, SVHS, or A/V inputs. That is to say make a new hareware connection...

MP1 MP2 compression woes DE
Well, I'm totally at my wit's end trying to make compression work.. First of all, I should preface this by noting that mediaportal totally rules, hands down! :) My issue is that I've got a hard drive full of stuff I don't want to delete, yet I can't compress. What's odd is that I *used* to be able to compress to wmv without...

I'm not actually using MPA, I typically only use Mediaportal with Nvidia codec, but I did try MPA to see if it would work, unfortunately alll codecs seem to have the same problem. So it appears that the issue is somewhere in the myTV core. I will work through the old SVNs (and CVSes :)) to see if I can find the specific version the...

Well the card does says Full MPEG2 supported, not sure if that is the same as hardware MPEG. But I know I do have it set to hardware on the Nvidia forceware software. and it does have an integrated TV encoder too, not sure if that helps but it should. Haven't tried diff decoders, any suggestions on which decoders to try? Thanks

I dont think so, as if you use the wizard, it will only tune using the first tuner it detects. If you tune by configuration, you would have to tune using both cards (or manually assign).
