Having trouble installing or configuring MediaPortal?
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. From what I've seen, one of the main reasons I recommend a long hard look at Mediaportal as your DVR solution is because of the community. mm's is a volunteer and he here to help. When moving away from Windows Media Center, expect to...

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. By entering them manually I mean: Open TV Server configuration. Go to the TV Channels section. Double click on a channel (or select and click "edit") that you...

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. Perhaps you are using another part of a hybrid card." The tuner has no light on (it usually has a light when it is being used). I've...

And to those of you thinking... WOW, where did this BUMP come from.... it's been 4 1/2 years.... Well, I figured 4 years was long enough for him to wait. Kidding, he pointed out to us on FB yesterday that he gave us a shot back then and never got it working.

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.

I am not an SQL expert. Do you already have a version of MySQL installed? If the answer is "yes", then try not upgrading MySQL during the MP install, i.e. stay with whatever version of MySQL you already have. Note: you will need to deselect the "install MySQL" option on the relevant panel during the install, as MP will pre-select...

[SOLVED!!!!!] The final piece, which probably should have been the first piece, was version incompatibility.
