Post problems you have when using MediaPortal, or pre installation questions in here.
Bottom line, with the mc2xml "-a/-b" option you need to setup 2 recordings "Title" and "Title *" if you want to record all new/repeat shows. With TV Series you see all shows as "Title", in TV > Recordings you see 2 folders "Title" and "Title *". MePo and xmltv plugin don't really have integrated support for New/Repeat/All shows. The...

Seemed to pop up going from 1.4 to 1.6 but managed to get it to work again by going into watch a video and pressing INFO which then seemed to show the video details and then TV INFO then started working. Needed to go back to 1.4 for an issue and this is...

MP1 MP2 TVSERVER Don´t Start (1 Viewer) DE
Yes, if it was installed but would not start ... I suppose some fault in some file caused the error. I uninstalled completely Mediaportal, and although I lost all settings, channels and recordings, I installed again from scratch and it works again.

For now you're right about option 1. It is somewhat of a work in progress though: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/merging-mediaportal-url-source-splitter-iptv-filter.121165/ Probably option 2 is the option to pursue. Just need some help with getting those particular streams to load.

Like the title says, whenever I use FF and RW for more than a couple of seconds the player freezes. Pressing stop etc does nothing but I can still hear the button sounds coming from MePo.

While I realize its probably not viable to play Amazon Instant Videos, Vudu or other purchased DRM videos through MediaPortal, I was wondering if there is any way to at least list your videos on these services.

Hello wakkawakka I'm not sure exactly what you mean when you say MediaPortal still prefers the channels from the old transmitter. Recommended best practice when switching transmitter would be to delete any old channels and rescan with the correct frequencies for the new transmitter.
