You have an idea how MediaPortal could be improved? Post it in here.
Hi! Did you ever come home after a day of work and your MP Client is running - each day - each week? No? - Ok, you've got no children ;)) It's a nice idea to have some screensavers inside MP's client to prevent from burning in and it's a nice idea to have a button on your remote control to close the MP client application...

Yeah, I agree that the project could be mostly coded separately from the PVR core. It could supply the PVR developers with a COM object/ .NET library/dll or suchlike, with all the details about talking to the server encapsulated. I know that both MP and GBPVR use .NET. Then it might be as simple for the PVR developers as using the...

I see your point, but does it do now? IDTS... it sends internal IP, that option will just enable different IP (for all cases) sad news for me, but you saved me few hours, thanks.

I have found a few codec packs that will automatically uninstall the gabest codecs when they are found. The trouble with that is that the gabest mpc audio codec is my preference. It will downscale dts or dd5.1 to 2 channel without stutter unlike ac3filter and ffdshow. The problem is that a re-install of the app is required to get...

Don't switch :) MP1 is designed to be only a fullscreen HTPC application and it has some severe design limitations in the skin engine that causes lot of the workflow information to get missing when toggling around directx modes / size etc. MP2 will be handling that better.

Still, it's just too annoying for me that this bug or this simple missing feature is in MP. I just hope they realise that basic functionality like this should be in there. 'till then I give FTR a try.

I agree with on those two points: Info - Should be one press to open, one press to close. The openning of the second window really, really annoys me. REC - Why doesn't the REC button set 'Record Once' when used on the EPG? It just seems so obvious.

Hey, that's great news. Looking forward to MP2 even more now :) My brother will just have to wait for the wonderful HTPC I've promised him as I want it to be simple enough for him to use without constantly asking me for help. I'm only running singleseat anyway as I don't live in a big enough house to need more than one TV!

Yeah, that's a better idea actually as it would save needing to use Config if for some reason it became necessary to make those options available again. Like you say "just" :) That would be an option to completely remove them, but I prefer Paranoid Delusion's idea of a PIN as it locks them out but still keeps them available if...

Don't think it'll be so huge, let's take a simple example : with 20 removable media and/or hard drive with 1000 directory on each (3 level of 10 directory for ex. - selecting a video file may take some time with this structure) database should remember 20000 filename with full path plus device id (1 file per folder). Full paths are...

When watching live TV and a scheduled recording comes in between, it now says "Timeshifting is stopped for a scheduled recording". It would be much better if MP alerts the viewer and then changes to the channel that is recording at that moment. WAF would increase enormously! Now they don't know what to do after Live TV has stopped...

There is no way currently of removing TV Combinations (unless I am missing something). So, any errors you make during the setting of TV Combinations are pretty much irreversible. Could this be added to the TV Server setup?
