Hi Guys, Great product!!! I have trouble with the weather images. I cannot see any detail in the satellite and humidity images, because the service provider I download them from can only give me country wide images and not regional images. The image itself is 1024x768 but I can only see it inside a little block in the bottom...

I agree that the forums need a tidy up as they are too big. Having said that, I think the old topics should be moved to an archive to help stop new users starting topics that they believe have never been discussed. Also, in my browsing of the forums I have come across software that should be on the Download section of MP but...

MP1 MP2 Search function DE
It would be great to have a search function so that if I have several hard drives with media files (which I do), I would not have to go through each mapping to find a movie or MP3. The search function would search through all mapped drives/folders for that media file. This could be restricted to the type of media I am in at the moment...

I'm not sure if this has already been requested (I couldn’t see it anywhere on the forums). Would it be possible to have a "SET SCENE" plug-in which sets the mood of a room? For instance: if used in conjunction with the voice recognition plug-in (which I think was suggested already) you could say something like: Computer -...

At the moment a manual recording is fairly tough to schedule (at least in my opinion). The first few screens, up to where you set the date is fine (though perhaps a few friendly name overrides would be nice on the date screen. e.g. replace today's date with the word Today and tomorrow's date with Tomorrow, this is not a big deal...

MP1 MP2 My News Alteration DE
Perhaps it might be nice to be able to select which RSS feed you want to use when you actually click on my news. i.e. when you click mytv instead of it going to your first feed it could simply goto a screen which displays all of the feeds you have setup you would then just click on the feed you want and it would open it?

I have a lot of directories in my videos and my music, and sometimes it can be very tedious scrolling down with the remote. On my Sky Digital box, I can scroll through the channels using the num pad, i.e. you press 2 twice and get to the first record beginning with B, or 6 three times and get O. I think this could make it a lot...

Why the hell hadn't I tried that button before? :oops: The only advantage then would be filtering down the number of shows you're presented with - it's a lot easier to keep on top of recordings when you're not presented with a list of 30+ shows, even if they are in order. This will keep me content for a while though 8)

MP1 MP2 web-tv DE
Ok, I got this feature presented from a microsoft guy at a seminar I attended some weeks ago. I got the impression this was a feature that was gonna be applied to "all" tv-channels over time. He was probably a salesman :P Anyway, Knut Inge, can you post a link to the thread of that guy from NRK?

In the later versions of CVS for .1.3 and in v.2rc1 this function exists. In the tv guide, highlight a program and press the ok button (on mce or else <enter>) and MP will take you into a creen with all the recording options, as well as listing all the times your show is on next. Most people find that the CVS from 25/8 is the...

It has passed the forum briefly earlier, but I think it may be a simple yet useful change. Some TV/Radiostations, bands, songs etc. have names containing characters like "/?\<>!" etc. Windows will not allow a file to contain these characters, which makes it quite impossible to generate a thumb for this item. It might be a good...

Hello there, as I see, there is actually no integration of changing audio programs within avi-files. In my case, I've got several tvshows with german and english audio. And at the moment I'm hearing both audio tracks simultaneously. So my request is a way to select these several languages within avi-files. Hopefuly I didn't...

Hi, since MP uses the Amazon Web Services for coverart lookup, the results are not as satisfying as formerly with the google lookup. Especially for non-english titles the lookup is sometimes very bad. Eg. does the german title "Schiffmeldungen" not give any results with the amazon.com lookup. The Amazon Web Services also exists...
