MP1 MP2 Dual DVB-T support ! (1 Viewer) DE
If your gonna use Windows XP then youll need this patch to begin with https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/viewtopic.php?t=11814&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=dvb+fix&start=15 as XP is broken and wont work properly with dual tuners (have to wonder if thats a co-incidence, MCE2005 works fine). Otherwise its up to the drivers...

i asume you've checked "Load ID3 tags from file if it's not in music ...". This is in MP Configuration in Music - General Settings. A file is you're playing is not in the DB. And it looks like your files don't have valid Tags. So seeing that you don't have too many files, i would untick thos option and delete musicdatabase4.db3...

No, that's not necessary. Run MP Configuration and make sure that you have "Enable Exclusive DirectX" selected in Home and that "Grab EPG...." in Television / Program Guide is de-selected. If you are still having problems, post your MediaPortal.log file - that is "source of all truth".... :wink:

I'm not fully sure, but I understood the software/hardware decoder items was for analog only. Digital tuners recieve a MPEG stream of some sorts anyway, so no probs there.

You can use the graphedit program in the downloads section to open the media your having trouble with. You should be able to pinpoint there where the problem is (codec/video rendered/merit problems). It also lists all the installed codecs so you can see if any are missing.

I have also seen this problem. Seems the new autotune function needs a stronger signal. When connected to the antenna in my livingroom it only found about half my channels. (Both for my DBT-C and my Analog card). But when connected to my computerroom antenna outlet it finds all channels. /Robert

from what you tell there is only one possible answer ... you have two boxes and you need to s-video-in's - so you need 2 PVR150's ... Here the mathematical proof: 1 + 1 = 2 (by the way: I also go from my box through s-video into the PVR150 - very good quality!) thanks+regards WeWe

MP1 MP2 Twinhan remote DE
I have a Twinhan remote that I have been trying to get to work with MP. I have tried HIP but it doesn't work perfect from what I can see.

ASiDiE Yup, I saw your posts after I posted. I'm not sure why E* would be such a problem. I hope that this issue gets resolved soon, too.
