Post problems you have when using MediaPortal, or pre installation questions in here.
Thanks for posting your solution (y) I guess the Hauppauge card is slightly different to mine which are based on the same chipset family but have software encoders. Glad you got it sorted. :)

You can press [alt]+[enter] to toggle to windowed mode. There is a minimum resolution of something like 720x576 (don't quote me on that). If that is still too big for your screen, there is also mini-mode: in the menu (up where "file" is), choose "options", then select the mini TV mode. You should be able to resize the window to your...

Would the STBs live with each TV, or with the PC (at the bar???)? If they had a display on the front that told you what channel they were tuned to then that might partially solve the problem. Then you have to be close to the PC to change channel, but maybe that is what you want. Good luck to you - hope you manage to find or build...

disable powerscheduler plugin in both tvserver config and mp config, then see if problem goes away. if it still persists then it's not MP. (I doubt it's MP anyway, sounds like hardware problem)

MP1 MP2 Streaming setup DE
I have been HTPC-ing for several years, but never bothered with streaming media. I am rebuilding my HTPC, and so far, Media Portal looks awesome. And I see that it can stream media over RTSP. I never even heard of RTSP before today, but it looks cool. So, my question is, once I get the streaming set up, how will I get the URL for a...

You will need to look at modifying your skin or find a skin that is better match for your needed - personal recommendation, Frames, and even that I've modded slightly for Moving Pictures (more plot, no writer/director info). What skin(s) have you tried out? Cheers - JCMP

No - just one per PC. As mm said, it seems to be some combination of how the bios/Windows/drivers/hardware interact at startup. You could try playing with the bios USB settings and the USB power settings in Windows. If that fails, then you might have to try running 'devcon' commands - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/311272 - from...
