You have an idea how MediaPortal could be improved? Post it in here.
As the new TVServer 3.5 is still in development (and the respective EPG as well), there might be a chance to get your proposal in there ;) I´ll ask the devs ;)

I have a Intel NUC as MePo client and a TV in bedroom, sometimes I fall asleep watching TV - pointless to keep TV on when I'm sleeping... So my power options on the client (windows 7 power options) are set to turn off screen after 1 hour, so if I do not touch the remote it will turn off the screen. My TV is set to turn off after no...

Thanks! I didn't know that, I only looked in the TV Service. Thanks! :) It's not easy to understand the whole code, if you are just starting with developing for MediaPortal, because it's a very huge project with a lot of code :-)

The option to prevent duplicate recordings has some problems with incomplete or incorrect EPG data, especially the episode number option. I recently had problems recording episodes where the EPG data contained season info but no episode info, so every episode of season 2 had episode number "1..". The scheduler skipped all episodes...

Hi, I've noticed that if you bring up the EPG and its near the end of a program, you can't see what it is as the actual time vertical line is to the left of the EPG timeline. It would be good if the vertical line representing the current time was positioned say a 1/3rd of the way in the guide so that programs running now but...

Hi guys, Simple, as the title says: would be awesome if this could be achieved. If not in MP1, what about MP2? P.

I think (could be wrong) the installer renames the MediaPortal TV Server folder in ProgramData: https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-1/blob/master/TvEngine3/TVLibrary/Setup/setup.nsi#L251 Therefore, actually all config (MPIPTVSource.ini etc.) that is stored in that directory is affected. Currently there is special handling for...

Well, then...we're back at my first post ;) If you specify multiple folders in your MP config, wouldn't it be easy to add these "root paths" to the database on indexing and allow directories as a parameter? I still think that this would be a great expansion of the capabilities. And as I already stressed...yes, directory view works...

Hi guys I have noticed that when waking the display up from remote mp responds to whichever key was pressed. This isn't the best way as when the display is off you don't really know where mp was left. Would make more sense if the first key press while display is off non active, apart from waking the display up.

I could think of a few improvements regarding the gui configuration. One is that buttons should be positioned in a logical way like kiwijunglist said and when the button is below a certain list it should be accessable via the down arrow. Another thing is having an overview where in the whole menu tree is my current position. Is it...

Also such playlists often have tvguide data. So it will be cool if tvserver can also grab this data and stores in db. Also in my case iptvplayer downloads such playlist from online so it will be cool if tvserver could update iptv playlist every xx days/hours from online location too. IPTV providers often update/change channels in...

Many years has passed, but it seems to me that Radio section is still the same. If I remember correctly, the programming of radio section was simply derived from tv section. If you try to record a radio channel, the resulting .ts contains video, and the file is stored in recorded tv secrion. There are problems in building the graph...

Hello developers, My improvement suggestion would be a event monitoring or log file adapter mechanism. in the form of a standard plugin.

And was beginning to go...

Seems like either idea could work, if fast enough and reliable enough. (Keep the web-site open, use it, auto detect the download, and act on it.) Simple. :) Once upon a time I was a software developer, but no more, so if anybody wants to give it a shot, I'd be happy to test. FWIW, I run Firefox on the big screen, using the "Opera...

MP1 MP2 Improving Recording Clean-up (1 Viewer) DE
I can't believe this hasn't had any replies! Yes definitely, this is a glaring area for improvement. I've got 2tb of recordings I don't want. Cleaning them up is a nightmare. A simple selection system with an option to move\delete would be really welcome and long overdue. A massive +1 from me.

I'm saying it's fairly straight forward for plugin developers to get remote input using the same library that MP1 uses which is called SharpLibHid. Users don't have to install anything other than the plugin itself. However that does not give you access to the button/action mapping from MP. It also works "only" with HID hardware which...

Hello, If thinking this as a plugin only for MP1, making it working and user-friendly would need: 1. Compiling the source to .NET 4 (like @Lehmden said). 2. Installer (MediaPortal Extension Maker --> Easy thing i think). 3. Support for skins (now the plugin values has to setted manually, ie. PosY and PosX etc. I don't really know...
