Hi there, I am currently investigating ways to reduce the TV channel switch time. I noticed that the TVserver process creates about 100MB of disk activity (mostly read) when I change channels. Then I used ProcessMonitor to find out which files are read and why. Below you see an extract of the log. You see that TVserver does some...

I sure this has been suggested before. It's something I would love to see happen. Even go as far as having a small launcher app on the clients that pull the latest/current version of MediaPortal from the server. For example, say MP 2.1.1 is released and you install that on the server over 2.1.0, when any of your clients connect the...

Actually thinking about it, would be nice if scheduled recordings could be accessed from the recorded TV screen, no biggie as i really don't look at scheduled, because they already show in TVGuide, but for someone with a few hundred channels, expect that to be much more used. Think you should rename title of thread to incorporate...

MP1 MP2 Wake on LAN DE
How about having MP store the MAC IDs for different IP addresses, so that if you try and access TV, music, video from an IP address that isnt responding to pings, MP can send a magic wake on lan packet to wake the machine up? Would be ideal for TV server / client set ups.

Hi - I added some code (10-20 lines, really hacky) which gives me context menu option for moving a recording to a predefined (hard-coded) location and deleting it from the database. Unfortunately, I'm not familiar enough with the MediaPortal code in order to make the destination configurable or to implement this in a proper way. I...
