You have an idea how MediaPortal could be improved? Post it in here.
Hi Czar63, the key for this to work is a graphics adapter that has overlay detection. this is not a feature of MP but of the graphics card driver. I have two systems and it works on both. System #1 uses a Matrox G400 (with a very good video output) here you have to enable "DVDMax" in the "Dualhead Section" if this is enabled the...

Hi mama, I really second that. It is not nice to switch from my TV using channel, say, 25 to my TV Guide where i end up at channel 1. I think it would be better to end up directly in channel 25. Flip.

Is it possible to have the shutdown button at the other end of the three buttons. I find I am always using the close button, and sometimes the tv-in-the-background, but never the shutdown. Maybe just me but it seems silly to have to keep pressing past the shutdown button all the time AND/OR Make the shutdown button ask whether...

MP1 MP2 Setup: Performance DE
knubile I played for more than 5 hours last night, having a party. I made a playlist with 2000 songs, shuffled them and listened the entire evening, no lock-ups at all. After that i watched an episode of a favorite TV show again without any problems. I do have an Epia M9000 like yours without the Win-TV.

I agree with cheezey. It can be a mess browsing my programs if you have "too many" programs added to the list. I have nes, snes, mame, n64, sega, cd-burning, dvd ripping etc added to the list of programs and it would be easier to browse my programs if you would be able to categorize them in directories. In my case it would be a games...

It's on the Todo list for the Video Player. See Todo.txt in C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\Docs As for video / TV capture I would think it's impossible. Depending on your card / country you should capture at the full D1 resolution where possible 720x480 (NTSC) or 720x576 (PAL / SECAM) If widescreen is broadcast...
