What about tuning channels on the Computer? Do you have to view the channel that is on the TV or can you tune to different channels? Meaning (watch one channel on tv and watch a different channel on the PC using media portal while only using 1 box).

It is expected that the next major release will allow you to "stream" tv to another PC. This is a major breakthrough and well worth having a network for - as it means you can effectively have a media portal "Server" which has your TV cards and big disk etc and another machine in another room which picks up the TV signal over your...

If that makes you feel better I have the same symptoms, too. Nothing to be embaressed about. The way you handle it is what I would call a workaround.... I will continue searching for a solution... /jayrock

MP1 MP2 TV Picture jumps (1 Viewer) DE
Update: Installed all the updates mentioned here, along with the reg hack, latest ATI drivers and tried the PCI latency tool as well. Sure enough, the latency for my gfx card was 255. Dropped it to 64 and noticed an immediate improvement! Was actually able to watch TV at last, and recorded several shows all of which played back...

That would mean I have to run MPsetup first every time I want to watch another DVD (image). Then I rather not use MP and just go with the mouse. The reason I want this all automated is because I then can do it with the remote control.

MP1 MP2 Timeshifting File DE
Hi, timeshift is a ring buffer. 60 minutes will need aprox 2 GB diskspace. So you will get around ten files, and then MP will return to the first, or deleting the first. So no need to worry. A bug in timeshift would have been noticed already....i hope ;) Flip

Yes, some do, but it is fairly minor. For example, The channel up/down button changes TV channels in My TV, but does nothing when watching a DVD - which is a bit odd, as I would expect it to change chapters in DVD mode... :( Not to my knowledge - but I don't think it would be necessary, anyway.

I have the same problem! Hauppauge WinTV 150 Tuned the tv channels, but i can't tune the radio. The funny thing is that the cabletv provider says that he sends radio channels trough the cable. I enter the frequency and nothing happens. I assinged it to the card too.

I just installed MP, but it gets stuck when sanning my computer for media files; the scanning slows down and in the end all my computer gets stuck. I can't even use ctrl-alt-del anymore.

For those of you on this thread that are ripping DVD backups with Shrink or DVDrip and trying to play them back through MP, you may want to try the following: 1. in your video_ts folder, remove all files except for the main movie's .vob files. 2. download a free program called Ifoedit (Ifoedit0971.zip). I got it from doom9.net...

Take a look at the new Hauppauge HVR-1300 card. I have just purchase one, (but haven't managed to install it yet) but it should replace a Hauppauge Nova-T and MCE-150 combination, all in a single pci slot. This would allow you to: 1. tune digital tv 2. input Foxtel via the RCA inputs 3. receive FM radio. I believe that there...

Two thinks improved the situation: 1. I read the logs carefully after turn on extensive logging, thanks to Maschine 2. Deleting the hibernate option in windows and start new. Now Powerscheduler is working, but with the new CVS (12-09) only a 6kb file is recorded (DVB-S), but this is another problem.
