Installation, configuration support (63 Viewers)

Having trouble installing or configuring MediaPortal?
Thanks, I knew you heed the call ;) However, I did so much damage before you posted that MySQL totally is blown to an extent where it wont unistall / reinstall. I cant be bothered with a win 7 re-install I got soooooo mad I decided to install MP2 and I now may give it a shot throughout the house, a couple of questions if you'd be so...

Hi. I didnt do as you requested as I was building a new PC to install on soon. Having just done that and finding the same issue (no TV option and no deploy tool), I *finally* realised that it wasn't working because I was running the 10th anniversary edition. This also explains why there was no TV built in. All of the documentation on...

The server side graph shouldn't require a sound card to operate, but if you have one available then it wouldn't hurt to try connecting it. The Cinergy logs show the same error as the TT logs... though actually both products are the same (based on a TeVii design), so the test doesn't help as much as I had hoped.

Rights don't change like this. What you experience is imho the fact that the software is executed under different user contexts. Executing a program on an admin account with and without explicit administrator privileges is not nessecarily the same and can lead to different results. However, once run with full admin privileges should...

A friend of mine wrote a python script to translate my old recordings from vdr to recordings able to import into MP. Most of them are shown up in the recordings folder to import them into MP. As far as good. But some recordings do not show up. Now I found out, that the problem is a & within the value of a tag (i.e. COMMENT) in the...

A lot of people use them and most of the time they do their job well. If I were you the main thing that would scare me is that (AFAIK) the Prof tuners are clones of some of the older TBS cards (QBOX [1], 6920, 8920 etc.)...

I think there is a wording question. but this does not help/fix your problem. In wiki 0 => "last" channel, if you watch 2 channels, you can press "0" to swap between the last 2 channels, on TV remotes this is "flashback", "recall" etc F7/F8 => previous/next channel, are go to next lower/higher channel number in your EPG group

Import can be a mixture of add and update, so when you say "restore... back to the way they were" I would probably use other terms. Like the scan process, the import process also tries to avoid creating duplicate channels. This is to handle the scenario where TV Server has channels before import and there is some overlap between the...

My partner has one video she watches all the time. I'd like to add a tile to the home page so she can select it and it goes directly to that video file, either playing it or going to an info screen she can select to play rather than having to drill down through the Movies hierarchy to find it. It is not a commercial movie if that...

Yup, I understand the OS is unsupported but I don't really have an alternative. I need the server to do some other things and it needs to be a server OS for that. I honestly wasn't expecting full support or anything, just hoping someone might be able to suggest something I've missed... UPDATE: I borrowed a Windows 7 installer from...

You scan them in with the DVB-IP/IPTV tuner. Set up an m3u playlist with the URL(s) of the restreamed streams. Copy one of the DVB-IP tuning detail playlists if it helps. m3u files can be opened and edited in any text editor (notepad, wordpad etc.). Then just go ahead and scan according to the normal DVB-IP scan process...

Is it possible to have MediaPortal only launch external media players under certain conditions ? For example by evaluating the filename ? I'd like to use the internal player as much as possible, but for 3D have it use Arcsoft's TMT6. I was thinking of adding "_3D_" to the filenames... maybe MediaPortal can check for this substring...

So my first post gets to be with problems installing! I'm trying to install MediaPortal 1.7.1 and everything runs smooth until it tries to install MS Visual C++ 2008 SP1 KB973552, which crashes, and ends the installation.

I'm using my TV's remote through the Pulse Eight CEC controller to control Media Portal.
