You have an idea how MediaPortal could be improved? Post it in here.
Thanks, I will try as soon as I get home. Looks like the thing I'm looking for.

Wouldn't an easier way be to have the client assigned a unique ID which the server sees. Then if the client crashed and needed to re-connect, the server would see the same ID again and realize that the previous stream did not close properly.

MP1 MP2 My Pictures Feature DE
Getting the pictures onto the PC is a bit more complicated for me, as I take them in RAW and use some software to process them into JPG. I then use a PERL program I wrote to rename and move them into a year/month directory structure according to the timestamp in the EXIF header. I also use the Microsoft synctoy to backup onto an...

I second this. Lack of this feature is the last thing that keeps me from ditching VDR on linux.

I would like to have a simple MyNews plug-in. The only thing it should do is be able to play one out of a selection of maybe 6 or 8 internet video streams. The internet streams list should be defined in the plug-in configuration together with a friendly name. The plug-in should just show the list of the streams by their friendly...

MP1 MP2 Progress bar while MP is working (1 Viewer) DE
The spinning wheel is cool and it's quite similar to Vista...but it has a major flaw! It won’t disappear when I play ISO/IMG files. I reckon it has something to do with the external calling of Daemon tools?!

Hi guys, If you have the time at one point the following would be nice. Next to the record button in My TV there could be a bit more text then the oversized "REC", it would be more informative with REC MANUAL and REC PROGRAM. I hope that makes sense.

Hi there, I have a dual tuner system and I noticed that if i select 3 items to be recorded at once, the red record button has a '!' in it. I like this idea, but would it be possible to add a popup window to notify you when you select the third recording. Sometimes i may miss the little red conflict record button, and keep 3...

Yup, something like this WILL come in the mid-term-future. Not only for radio but also tagging from MyMusic. Listening to tag radio is already possible for those who compile on their own - there is just no decent GUI control to select more than one tag at once.

Yes, I will give the "thumbs up" to PVR Scheduler too - it is excellent! Also, PVR Scheduler has the ability (if you are prepared to do a bit of BIOS research) to wake your PC from Shutdown mode - although most people use Standby or Hibernate, since the PC is ready to record quicker.

I like the idea of selectable zoom modes. In setup you could select which zoom modes to use. As a good video codec can figure aspect ratio for itself, I only need 3 zoom modes which are Normal, Zoom 14:9 and Zoom(16:9). If zoom modes were made selectable, there would be one feature to make it even better: When viewing video or TV...

MP1 MP2 A few ideas DE
That's exactly right mbuzina. I meant a feature that would show the picture that you see on the home-screen and such, in external programs like CDisplay, and whatever other programs I use, even when I minimize MP and start working. Much like an "always on top" thing, but just for the currently playing media, and shows when MediaPortal...

Well it would work if you were recording the show from the very beginning... But if you've deleted the last 14 or so seasons of the Simpsons for example and don't want to get all the reruns that air 24/7 on syndicate channels, it might be a problem.
