Well, if it's compressed to MPEG audio, 384 is a very high rate. Could even be that this is the maximum for your card. MP uses MPEG audio and AC3 only, btw. PCM is not used and usually not delivered by the cards. So I guess despite your setting to LPCM, your card delivers a high rated MPEG audio stream. Would make sense.

Sorry, that's not possible at the moment. Also not possible, those entries are hardcoded atm. You only can remove buttons from the skin (by editing skin xml files by hand), but not from the context menu. We know that the home plugin setup is a pile of crap. It will surely be rewritten completely in the future. To get back to...

This is more or less possible, though you'll have to skip the "seamless" part. I use this setup. If I start mediaportal, I actually start a ultramon shortcut, which switches the primary monitor to my TV and starts MP. Then I can still use the (now secundary) other monitor for www or word etc. Games won't work since most of them...

Hi, in 0.1.3. SW-cards were native supported by MP. The engine in 0.2. has been changed much. You have to follow the above links. SW-cards are only supported, if you have a software encoder installed. Flip.

Hi, I have an irritating problem when using mediaportal with my irman / Harmony 525. Scrolling is too slow; If I use anything lower than 250 ms in the mediaportal setup, MP scrolls two lines every time I push the remote. So I'm stuck with 250ms, which drives people crazy - They hammer the remote, resulting in MP scrolling long...

I would simply ignore them at this point. Your reasoning and examples are more than concise. If I were you, I wouldn't even bother changing the merit value and leave it as MERIT_NORMAL. Let them solve their own problem - A problem you've been more than helpful on solving for them. :?

I used to get it happening. Now I don't. I applied the dual tuner patches at some point - perhaps that helped. I wonder if the issue is the signal for aspect ratio change. I use nvidia codec - this is the only codec I know of that handles aspect ratio changing perfectly. BigJ.
