MP1 MP2 DVD/Video playback DE
I need a little assistance. I upgrade to MP 1.7 and LAVF 0.61.2 at the same time and now my DVD and Videos do not use the full screen, I have 2 inch gray bars around the video playback. I have the same issue with Media player classic, so I am thinking it is a codec or splitter issue. Any help is greatly appreciated. schumach

I must be missing something obvious here, because this should be very straight forward. When I load up MediaPortal, there's a Video option, but no Movies or Series. How can I add those options? I went into Titan Editor, but didn't see a way to do this. In MediaPortal Configuration, I added my TV and Movies folders under "Video."...

Thanks mm for your quick response. I will head back over to the Argus forums for help. I managed to fix the TV server errors mentioned in the earlier Argus post, so I thought the log messages were more to do with my MediaPortal or network settings. Cheers, MLH01.

Yes, it is running like it should be. Startup takes sometime - I didn't time it but I would guess it is between 10-20 seconds. However, I normally sleep it on power off, so it is not really an issue. No problems with any formats so far and the built-in wireless works fine for streaming from my NAS. But most importantly - it is quiet...

When playing 24fps videos (mostly blu-rays) MediaPortal dropped 1 frame every 5 seconds. This makes impossible to watch movies that use smooth panning camera movements. For example, the very main scenes of WALL-E. I had this problem and I just want to share the solution that worked to me. I don't know the exact origin of the problem...

Hi. Is there a way to make MP start TV at a specific TV channel ? I'd like to make a button for the kid, just press button - and Disney channel comes on. If possible, the best would be if some command-line tool could perform that command.

The cause of the problem is the database gets corrupted. The corruption probably occurs due to simultaneous access from multiple clients. So, your configuration (storing the database on a share) is causing the problem. I suggest you investigate MP Sync...

Solved! I found the following in "C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts" #Begin Romaco Timeout Site Blocker 127.0.0.1 rate.ee #End Romaco Timeout Site Blocker Romaco Timeout was a parental control software I used to limit kids' use of PC. I think deleting these lines will sort this out. Superthanks for thinking along. MP rocks! Kaido

I believe I got it working. In case anybody comes across this thread in the future, here is what I did. First, I simply set the delay for TV card detection in TV Server Configuration to 5 seconds.

I think this is beyond the capability of our TV Server, simply because the timeshifting load on the HDD would be too much. I think you need professional IPTV delivery equipment with IPTV set top boxes if you want to do this. Sorry, I can't offer advice beyond that - no experience.

If you've done this then you need to report this to the Argus people. The TV plugin is responsible for deleting the recordings. Argus installs a replacement for the MP TV plugin. Therefore Argus is responsible for the delete behaviour. Please forward the report to Argus developers. :)
