hafblade I'd prefer not to go down the web epg route because I never get full listings, With ota it's always 100% complete with minimum effort :) I don't see many options for this so I think I'll take The_Stigs advice and try and get some help with episode scanner. Thanks both for the help...

I just found the solution: For some reason I cannot comprehend, MP was "finding" channels on frequencies that are actually not available in my region. When I looked up a list and entered the channel frequencies, symbolrate and modulation manually, it suddenly worked perfectly fine. I'm sorry for the confusion and thank you for your help.

Issue disappeared for a couple of weeks after codec update - but it started playing up again over the last couple of days. I cleared out all logs and started in debug mode.

Hello, and thank-you for your help. This is now resolved. Whilst I'd always configured the PowerScheduler plugin for the TV server, I hadn't done-so for the client. As a single-seat installation, I presumed that configuring it for the backend would be sufficient. But this appears untrue - the client PowerScheduler plugin also...

If you use Classic Home then simply disable the plugins you do not want in the plugins section of MP configuration. If you are using Basic Home and the skin you are using comes with a Basic Home Editor (the default skins do not) then you can use that to add or remove menu items. If you are using the default skins and the Basic Home...

Hi, I previously had my MP HTPC going straight into my TV via HDMI (with SPDIF to my Denon 3802) and everything was fine. I then bought a Pioneer VSX300 hdmi amp. Whenever a refresh changed in MP the amp struggled to accept the changes so I replaced it for a Marrantz NR1402. Whats confusing me is that when the refresh rate did...

A Little more tinkering later... and Wahaey.. Sorted it.

How is your MP config set up for TSREADER. Enabling this can reduce dropped frames on weak signals/sgnal errors. The only way to correct signal problems is at the source prior to the tuner card, so use the best aerial/downlead and connectors for reception from your local transmitter and careful use of amplifier/attenuator for...

I did see those two messages. I've always wondered about the TV3BlasterPlugin. It shows up twice in my plugins but they both seem to be attached at the hip, meaning I can't get rid of one, there are always two. How do I check my MySQL for consistency?

Hi, in you Windows energy options "Allow Wake Timer" has to be enabled. Eventually you'll have to enable a some wake on timer function (like "PME event wake up") in your BIOS too. (Standby = Suspend; saving memory to diks and power off = hibernate)
