Having trouble installing or configuring MediaPortal?
Magic - VERY please it all worked out for you. Also, IF Pictures was a big consideration, you can copy segments between your backup mediaport.xml and current version [you have to remove the working backup copy - RENAME not delete, so if it's all goes bad, you revert to backup copy(y). Cut the the Pictures section from old file...

Wow! I guess I never plugged a speaker into this computer before so it could recognize the audio hardware. Just assumed it would see the mobo sound chips and take it from there. A five second fix and we have channels! I think we can mark this one as solved!!! Thank you so much!!!

Hi Blub, Thanks for the recommendation. I have tried Emby, but I could not find a good TV plugin. I usecurrently the old MediaBrowser plugin in WMC. This works perfectly fine with both, TV, PVR and MediaBrowser (just not in Windows 10 anymore). I have tried Kodi as well, same problem, not proper free to air TV. Cheers

Yes, it is the problem. MySQL needs to be running in order for TV Server to use it. To solve this problem, you must decide whether you want to try to get MySQL working... or reinstall after completely uninstalling MediaPortal, TV Server and MySQL.

MP1 MP2 Install fails with MYSQL Exception (4 Viewers) DE
Check the MySQL log files. All the MediaPortal installer does is run the MySQL installer in "silent" mode. So, if the MySQL install fails it is due to a problem with the MySQL installer (ie. outside our control).

Hello and welcome Dave :) MediaPortal comes with its own TV Server, so this is not something you need to worry about. Just install MediaPortal, and during installation make sure you select the option that says "yes, I want to use MediaPortal to watch TV". WinTV-CI is a hardware product (ie. therefore not downloadable) from Hauppauge...

Feeshta, I just want to throw in that I can appreciate any frustration you may have at this point.

Simon, TV Server currently doesn't support grabbing channel numbers for Freesat in the UK. It's a bit tedious, but you can enter them manually if you would like to have them.

Windows 10 has a great solution to this: multiple Desktops. You just create a second desktop, put MediaPortal on that and you can quickly switch back and forth between MP and your other work. This feature made Windows 10 worth it on its own for me! It used to irritate the hell out of me that MP compulsorily muted the audio when...

Is there a good solution to using the MediaPortal client on a Windows tablet (over WiFi to a server on another machine)? Initially I was very impressed with how well this looked and worked, then I discovered there was no way to scroll the programme grid and other lists. In the end, the only way was to use a Bluetooth keyboard which...

Awesome! Thank you, that worked. It is scanning channels as I type.Actually, it stopped scanning around channel 15. Now it gives an error "Tuner is locked. Scanning is not possible at the moment.

Did you stop the TVServer service before trying this? The service would keep the database open, and therefore saving it under the same name is not possible. If this doesn't work, then I don't know.
