From my point of view it'd definitely need both, I get 5 sources for half a dozen channels from my tuners. Most being SD with 1 or 2 being HD. DVB-T only presents 1 channel in HD. DVB-S/S2 present 4 - 3 SD sources (duplicates on the satellite) and 1 HD source. Think there is definitely something here that could be developed...

@ Mars Warrior: I have the latest drivers too from Asus' own site - should I use thos directly from ATI instead?

Ask Any audiophile and the first thing thay tell you is that 5.1 sucks big time.. they still only want stereo. and yes, bi-amped, monoblocks on spiffy spikes and all other stuff. 5.1 is a format that compresses sound, 6.1 is derived from 5.1, 7.1 is derived from 5.1. this means that the extra 1 or 2 extra channels are...

Well, then...we're back at my first post ;) If you specify multiple folders in your MP config, wouldn't it be easy to add these "root paths" to the database on indexing and allow directories as a parameter?

MP used to prompt when a newer version was available, but it was removed a long time ago.

Just a quick update... I have tried the Junction Points successfully however they only work with NTFS drives. So I need to find an NTFS RAM drive.... I have tried a couple but they had small maximum sizes i.e 32 meg which is useless as a RAM drive. FYI. I estimate that for a 30 minute RAM drive I'd need about a 1.3 gig RAM drive...

Personally, I hate those "trailers". If I want to watch a movie, then that's what I want. I don't think the others aer off topic, simply pointing out that some of us view this request with a little "surprise".
