Hi, this is my first post so be gentle :) I thought I should start by introducing my machine. I finished my new HTPC just before Christmas (that's '07 in case this thread becomes a timeless classic).

Hello all, Just something I wanted to share. Yesterday I have finished the single seat installation of MP-1.1.0. It took me a couple of ours but I am very pleased with the result. Since a long time I can use WebEPG again! This was the only shortcoming I encountered with the previous version I was running (1.0 RC4). Now I could spare...

Hi again, Is anyone running with an X-Plosion soundcard? What I need to know is whether the SPDIF IO connector on the actual card will output SPDIF the same as the optical/coax? It says in the little documation there is that this is for adding an external spdif panel. The reason I ask is that I am planning on using HDMI...

At this moment I have a functional HTPC running Mediaportal 1.01, but I'm in the process of rebuilding the machine. Basically the hardware will be the same but I will replace the case. Now, I am using an Antec NSK-2480, while this case does the job, I want a case that is more elegant, so I've ordered myself an Antec Fusion Remote...

I have what is kind of an offbeat (but simple) requirement for recording TV. I have a FTA satellite receiver that has an attached USB drive that can be used to make recordings. unfortunately it has no PVR capabilities so one has to manually start and stop the recording of sat shows. Most of what I will record is HD and I would prefer...
