Having trouble installing or configuring MediaPortal?
I ended up switching to SageTV because I couldn't get MediaPortal to only open certain extensions with PowerDVD. With Sage I was able to configure it to open PowerDVD only for Blu Ray and DVD ISO files...

Sounds like you hit is spot on. That rots. DirectX 9.0c installs, dxdiag says it's there and tests fine, but the AMD site is clear as day.
It's a laptop I'm trying to run it on, so upgrading the video isn't an option. I guess I'm out of the running for MP. Bummer.

The installation of the TV server client plugin causes this.
The installer for 1.0 doesn't give the option of client install using TVE2 only.
Options @ install are:
1) Server + Client + TVServer plugin.
2) Server only.
3) Client with TVServer plugin.
I have the start menu group on mine, & the plugin install...

Just to clarify, there are two menus in MP. HOME and BASIC HOME. In the MP Configuration, there's an option under GENERAL where you can select which one to start with.
To change the HOME menu, you can simply right click on a plugin (in MP Configuration) and select/deselect the Show in Home option.

Aren't there any people who are knowledgeable about how sound is processed that might at least point me in the right direction?

I've used ffdshow
I've used SAF
I've installed MP twice when switching between codec "packs"
I've tried AC3 filter
And each time the problem...

Warning! This disables VISTA MCE completely.
