Thanks Heaps. Your suggestion led me to the server table in the MySql database and the name in there was an IP Address. For some reason my router must have dished out a new one after the power cut. Updated to the server name and all is working again. Thanks again.

I was using MePo 1.3 and then installed 1.5 to see if that would correct the problem, but it didn't. I use a radeon HD 5450 connected to my Denon AVR 1911. I can get all HD-audio to...

Since I have both of them connected to my PC (that's how I run MediaPortal) I...

I'm having the same problem with 1.4. Normaly a reboot of the PC solves the problem for me, and i will not see the problem for a long time. But then i sudently comes back again. So for me i "just" ignore it, rebooot the PC when i have the issue. Not much help :) But you got it anyway.

Hi there, i am using MePo together with the WOLPowermanager plugin to start my Standalon TV Server only when it is needed. This works really good so far.

I agree with both Jasmeet_181 and SimonP. :) In relation to to SimonP's comment: a potential solution is to apply DRC (dynamic range compression) in the LAV audio codec settings.

This would interest me as well. Also, I see two options for detecting duplicates: Episode Title Episode Number The episode title is in my experience often duplicated, as the sender does not always differentiate between the parts of a two-part episode. The episode number is also not unique, unless it is combined with the season (de...

Chris, TV Server doesn't just use any available tuners. You have to somehow indicate that a given tuner is capable of tuning a given channel. That is what mapping does: http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/TV-Server_Configuration/03_TV_Channels/2_Mapping If you don't do that, TV Server absolutely won't...
