Thanks for the reply. That has fixed things. As this was what the software had chosen from the available options for my card I thought it was probably the correct thing to have. Apologies for my ignorance. Cheers Tony

I notice that the same problem occur when I first insert a CD, select yes on the autoplay question, stop the playing, eject the CD, insert it again. Now, no autoplay question comes up. If I check the task manager, MP is using about 10% of the CPU. Nothing happens for a while, but after a while (a few seconds, a minute), MP crashes...

Hi, 1) - The automatic scan of the wizard does not work well - Add the shares of your movies manually: Setup->Movies->Shares - You do not have to add each movie / directpry, just add the root directory - Do the IMDB lookup there Setup->Movies->Database or within MP by hitting F3 on the movie / folder (with the VOBs) Flip

Hi, yes. You can make a copy of your current working directory e.g /Team Media Portal/Media Portal_CVS/ and then apply the CVS on the copy and play with it (do not forget to run start.bat and setup!). That leaves your current installation untouched. If you want to install 0.2RC1(+CVS): - make a copy of your current directory...

Its the newer 90002 nova-t with latest drivers. I've just installed 1.3 instead and its working fine now with vmr9 enabled :) . I still haven't worked out how to grab epg from the air (not without going down the dvb --> xmltv route) so I'm going to use xmltv instead.

Hi, I have a problem in MyTV with VMR9 when using my software card Cinergy 400. The problem is that im outputting interlaced via a VGA->SCART cable, and it seems that VMR9 has problems with this. My only solution so far is using the intervideo codec(solved it on my PVR-150MCE) but the Cinergy 400 doesnt output MPEG-2 so that codec...

Scart comes in both S-Video and composite forms. Older TVs can't support s-video scart. Some newer TVs (like my toshiba 32" widescreen) have some composite scarts and some s-video scarts. If your TV has more than one scart, try it in a different one.

Hi chayan, and welcome to MediaPortal.... DVB cards are for receiving digital TV and are available as PCI cards (plug into a slot in your PC motherboard) and as USB external devices.

Hi, High CPU load while TS is off is a known bug in 0.2.0.0 RC1 and already in Mantis. It however doesn't result in dropouts on my config, just high (100%) CPU load. If you want to get rid of this then your best option is installing 0.1.3.0 release and wait for 0.2.0.0 to become more stable. Kind regards, Michel
