Hi I thought i would just comment on the issues i have with my setup. I have MP on a laptop and using a large CRT monitor for the output. My laptop wont make the CRt the primary display in dual mode (this is normal supposidly) so this rules out the option suggested above. Also using the clone option and 'full screen video' mode...

Thank You! that solved my problem. I guess I need to run that update after each time I modify the mp3 tags in WMP. I thought/assumed that it read the tags each time Media Portal was loaded, but I guess it only reads them the very first time, unlss you run the update database. Thanks!

Thanks P.D., in fact another problem I have is that after the reinstallation of XP, the first setup of MP crashed it, while the normal setup worked fine. So I was wondering why, but your reply tells me I'm not alone. I just wonder now why has not been reported anywhere in the MP site,afaik. Thanks again Cristiano

The poor poor coverart, once you're ready with it... Try Mediaportal Setup, Goto movie, expand the node and goto database. There you can select the relevant movie in the first tab. The last tab will handle your cover art. I have no experience with deleting it, but removing the url and pressing "save" might help.

MP1 MP2 Output to TV DE
Or another sollution is to set the TV as the primary device. Then the video on you pc will be black and the TV shows your video. First you will need to connect a TV before you can clone it. In the latest drivers of Nvidia you can force a TV signal.

DScaler is my favorite, to make it better, I installed the latest version, which is something like DScaler 5. do a google for it, but it is a sourceforge project. On my PC upstairs, I also use DScaler but with the version that ships with MP and I have no problems at all.

Hiya, Haven't been working on the problem since my previous reply (temporarily removed the card). I plan to have a look at it in Februari. I tend to agree with arachnotron. It looks like a TV standdard mixup. However I've found references to a PAL avermedia tv card, which suggests my PC 'knows' what card I have. I'll keep...
