What I had to do to get it to work
I just got a clean install of 0.2 RC2 to work with a DVICO Fusion Plus Card. This is what I had to do to get it to work:
1. Install 3.0 Beta 3 of the drivers (None of the others seemed to work for me)
2. Install Media Portal 0.1.3
3. Tune the channels
4. Uninstall 0.1.3
5. Install 0.2 RC 2...

I decided to change skins on MediaPortal just to see what the others look like. When I did (I picked the MetalMedia skin), and then went to RSS - this time it worked!!! I guess the problem I had was with the Blue Two standard skin. Any ideas as to why would be appreciated.
Thanks ASiDiE for all your help.

Hi there!
I've always used MediaPortal for analog viewing, but now I'm using it for viewing (digital) TV Home (Essent, Netherlands) with my TwinHan DVB-C card.

Hi Flip,
I switched to another cvs that works reliably on my htpc (August 11) and there the radio works, so I guess I'll stick with this version until 0.2 final is released.
Thank you very much again!

Here's what you do:
1. Backup up your TV settings if you need to in the Configuration program (Television->TV Channels then click the Backup button and save the file somewhere safe like My Documents).

I was having similar problems too. Searching for answer in forum found your post.

Then Media portal will run under power user group which is my everday account group. Maybe this info will help. :lol...

Hi,
Not really, if you use the right MPEG2 software decoder and you're using a video card with the same quality output as the PVR-350 has.
So it depends on your hardware/software setup.
