Post problems you have when using MediaPortal, or pre installation questions in here.
Mike is it possible that you installed a codec-pack in the past. In general this is a bad idea. Most of the times FFDShow is enough. You can always find the latest version of FFDShow here: http://esby.free.fr/CelticDruid/#ffdshow At this moment I use ffdshow-rev2529-SSE.exe (3105648 Bytes 2006-04-26 06:47:20 UTC) and no...

DHCP was invented for administering hundreds or thousands of IP addresses. Now If you had hundreds or thousands of MP boxes, I would agree with you. :D but considering most people have 1 or 2 - maybe - 4 or 5 thin client MP boxes maximum, I simply dont see the need for autodiscovery the way I think you're describing it. One...

Hi, MP saves the path with the file names. You can manually edit the TVdatabaseVxx.db3 with the SQLight Browser (can be found in the docs folder of MP). Open the database and take a look into the "recorded" table. HTH, Flip.

Hi, sorry cannot help you there (much), because I do not have a 5.1 speaker system (currently saving money for it ;)). Depends on the file types I guess. For MPEG / DVD / TV you can set the Audio Decoder in MP. You have to change the output settings of these Decoders. Eg. for DScaler and MPEG/DTS/AC3 in Configure->Decoder...

i don't think there's a way round this yet. see that mp tries to get id3tags and embedded coverart etc from every single file. however, have you updatet your musicdatabase in configuration? this causes a massive improvement of speed in my case. but folders with a large amount of files still take some time, thats right
