You have an idea how MediaPortal could be improved? Post it in here.
Hi Tommy, That mantis came about due to me talking about live programs over-running, the epg being updated but MP not picking it up. What I'm referring to is the old system that was developed for VCR's and now called Accurate Recording which uses flags in the now/next stream to actively start a recording when it is shown and then...

Still is a problem if you select the wrong one. Try selecting the correct one for "Cops" for example.

Ralph, it gets its data from an unreliable commercial server from the internet. The tuxbox guys are allowed to use that data. I have it installed on my dbox, but it NEVER worked. In the various dbox forums you can read that it's super unreliable and rather never works than once in a time. If you set the timer manually, it works, of...

I would like the record menu in the TV guide to be expanded with a "Watch this program" option. Selecting this option would make MP change channel to the correct one when the program starts without recording it. This way, I could set MP to always be on the correct channel for my favorite shows. If I want to I can then start watching...

Could rename it to, Live TV on Live TV off or TV viewing on TV viewing off I'm sure there will be a lot of derivative's of this one, as everyone has there own lingual translation of what sounds correct to themselves.

I just had an idea that could - in theory - reduce dvb channel changing times while zapping up or down considerably in situations with more than 1 available tuner cards. In short it would work like this (2 tuner example): Channel list: C1, C2, C3, C4,... 1. user watches C1 2. user hits Channel Up 3. tuner 1 tunes to C2, tuner 1 is...

I also asked for this feature before. I referenced to DScaler, which has this detection already built-in (we could use DScaler too for software-based cards) and is open-source.

Im ruling iPod's out initially as I dont have one....and iTunes does it rather well from what I see of my g/f's. My MP3 player is mounted as a drive when its plugged in via USB....so its literally a case of comparing X: with your music folder in MP. Egon

Thanks, Ralph! I hope the placing will be different in the next final release. There have been several problems with icon and text placing in this (beautiful) skin from the beginning, though - esp. the "buddy" icon in the lower left can't be seen on several pages because of text and icons on top of it.

Today, mediaportal can connect to a FTP folder and cache the file there. This works pretty good, except for the following: - Must confirm download - Must wait until file is finished downloading - Cannot "auto-download" files (must create script yourself). Today I use "Offline files" (CSC) in Windows for this. I have all my...

I think it is reasonably common. Many people in Australia want a MediaPortal setup with free-to-air and then pay tv channels coming in on separate capture card (not that I understand why because pay tv in Australia is terrible so I cancelled my subscription :D ).

Thank you for the quick replies. I was looking more for an automatic osd text of this information, as oppossed to manually using the full osd interfaces that come with a skin. My knowledge of programming/scripting is very poor, but i will look into this function with the information you have given me.

Paranoid Delusion, Thanx for the reply. I do understand how a 16x16 icon would look ugly zoomed up to full screen, but I still think that zooming up would be a good feature.
