Improvement Suggestions (87 Viewers)

You have an idea how MediaPortal could be improved? Post it in here.
I suggested having the developers team up with the DVB Dream developers to accomplish the same thing in the Improvement Suggestions forum. Every time I have installed MP in past past 1.5 years, I have either been unsuccessful at getting TV (DishNet) working or it has worked in a limited capacity. The first thing I usually do when...

How about using a dreambox as a tv tuner? If MediaPortal could take a list of channels from the dreambox, and then just stream...

No problem, but it's wise to explore the program a little before making suggestions. A month or two would be adequate

0) When the database is scanning, it would be noice to be able to see what movie is being processed. Right now, all we see is "Media Info x of x". 1) It would be nice if we could elect to "scan sub-folders" (or conversely, NOT scan sub folders).

I am using the plugin Autostart, that checks the CD drive when MediaPortal starts, and then autoplays the CD/DVD... The only issue is that if you insert an audio CD, usually asks which one from the CDDB database you want, and then you have to switch on the TV to select. Or you can press "OK" without switching on the TV! aLeX...

I have a bunch of recordings called "manual" in Recorded TV. I just wonder if its possible to get MP to use EPG data for these recordings to call them something that relates to the actual show that was recorded rather than giving them all the same tag "manual" so that they are virtually undiscernable from one another (other than by...

I like to use the "Shares" view when browsing my movies, as it's nice and easy to get into and doesn't require any database matching. However, I will often use the imdb look-up facility to get thumbnails, etc. It would be nice to have an option so that the "file name" displayed in this view could be substituted with the name of the...

I think this has been sugested as a MP2 feature. The current MP codebase just isn't designed to offer this , although with the TVServer this is much more feasable. Only fiarly minor features are going to be added to MP1 now, it's all about bug fixes. All the big changes are going to MP2.

MP1 MP2 My several wishes DE
Here is the list of features I'd like to see implemented in MP. 1. Display list of video/audio files using internal tags (if available) instead of real file names. Many video files have real movie name embedded. Using this info would improve IMDB search as well. 2. Make media info available for viewing. Similar to this: MediaInfo...

I know you can set the date format in MP Config under the Home plugin in a variety of ways. However, I was wondering if the text version of day and month could be set to the abbreviated version, i.e Wed not Wednesday or Apr not April. This would be very helpful when skinning since it ensures a fixed number of character positions...

I agree. I also think that the following features should be included: - Add multiple files at same time. - For movies with more than one file, the possibility to move “up” and “down” each file. We must add files one by one and in the correct order otherwise we have to remove the file and add again Thanks :thx:

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...
