Refer to this of many threads on the subject. Why is this particular question always ignored? If this basic functionality will never be included please at least let us know? Waiting for years to get an answer is getting a bit painful.

I've been searching around a little bit - seems as if MediaPortal has always recorded in DVR-MS (correct me if I'm wrong). But nevertheless, since MP uses MPEG2 now, recording one show into two files for the "overlapping time" should be possible... - Waltz

hi, maybe it's a good thing for some people out there those only have one sat-cable but want to record on different frequencies/transponders. (some SAT-Receivers have this option (Topfield TF5000PVR)) Maybe the TV-Service could be modified for that. You can use more than one card with one cable when you use an sat splitter...

I would have to agree with you here. I also feel as though the music area is lacking but these 2 features that you suggested would really help.

MP1 MP2 1:30 skip steps for videos (1 Viewer) DE
Very true - setting constant & 90 gives you the 90 second skip - not as 'totally neat' manual skip steps being truly 'to the second' I would say, but as a fixed action [your use case Crix is start of many TV series {Big Bang Theory is about 20 so not all however:( so a frequent need] for a specific condition, it may really be a...

The multituner works fine when you have 2 similar type of card. (2 analog tuners or 2 DVB tuners) In fact, my exact problem is this one.

I can't find the function to lock the tuner on a specific frequency under the tv server configuration panels. It could be a good tool to check the signal when you try to tune an antenna (DVB-T) to get the best signal. Is that improvement suggestion already existing? Thank you ;)

I think the windows screen saver should work fine. I don't actaully use a screen saver but if you want the screensaver to kick in when MediaPortal decides to blank the screen then you could use this little plugin I just whipped up. Don't know if it is really of any use, but hey, if it does what you want, great. Just put the dll...

Hi. APK is the Android Apps package format, so Asustor (never heard of that before) seems to be some kind of Android derivate. That's the reason why Kodi could be there that fast. An Android version of Kodi already exists. But for MediaPortal this nearly is impossible to achieve, as MediaPortal relays on some technologies not...

It should be easy to give the user the option to see only channels that can actually be viewed at the current time. - If a client has a certain source in use, mark that source as 'leased' and mark his transponder as 'selected'. Now query for channels that are: - assigned to a source AND - not leased by another client OR - leased by...

Hi, I would like to schedule recordings from outside of MediaPortal, e.g. from an external app over the local network. Therefore maybe a commandline interface like MPschedule.exe -'Date' -'Time' -'Duration' -'Filename' would be great. :) -alibert

Hi This is something that has been bubbling in the back of my mind for a little while now. Would MP benefit from having a series remind function (an extension to the current reminder system) that is stored on the TVServer (like a schedule) that is also attached to a hostname; i.e. I have two clients, A and B. Client A sets a series...

yup the option in configuration .exe has been added in a stable patch (I think in the 2.0.3) but if you don't want to update you can still do it the "hard" way : https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/viewtopic.php?p=84616#84616
