Quite simply it has changed the way we watch media in our house, we have it running in several rooms and we quite honestly couldn't live without it.
I bought a HTPC 4 years ago and MP was pre installed, after messing with it for a while i was hooked.
Family and friends who see it are always impressed with the way it looks and...

I have just installed Windscribe but it is blocking access to my TV Server. I get the following message "Please specify the IP address or Host Name of the Master TV Service". I have a single seat build running the latest X64 version of MP1. Can anyone point me to a solution please? It's probably a really obvious one.....

I used the 32-bit version of MP on 32-bit Windows 7 for releases up to MP 1.31, performing an upgrade install for each successive release.
I skipped MP 1.32 as it has some difficulties, due to being a mixture of 32-bit and 64-bit.
I then installed 64-bit Windows 7 and performed a first-time install of 64-bit MP 1.33, which I am...

Does anyone else have problem with long (several hours) pauses of TV broadcasts?
If I pause and forget, I can still resume TV the next day, but if I try to change channel or stop, MP freezes.
Only way to fix is to restart both MP and TV Service. Sometimes I need to restart PC
It seems that TVServer cannot proprtly handle large...

I am still unable to get the 3D playback of inserted disks but otherwise eveything seems to be working well using a paid version of MakMKV on my HTPC.

On the assumption you are using an OTA/Cable or Sat tuner then no internet connection is required for live TV recordings. BUT only if you already have Media Portal fully installed and functional. For all practical purposes you will need an internet connection to get Media Portal properly installed on a PC!

Hi all,
I don't frequently update my MediaPortal and before seeing if it's really useful I used to browse the Changelog to determine if this update is necessary for my system or not.

Yes, you are correct in that ATSC 3.0 is still evolving in the US. However, I tend to not give too much credit to predictions that of the sort that say all ATSC 3.0 stations will eventually be encrypted. There are many broadcasters out there that I doubt will ever adopt encryption for their broadcasts. In particular, Public...

The problem with MP 1.32 was that the TV Server component was still 32-bit, even when you installed the 64-bit version of the MP client. MP 1.33 will have 32-bit and 64-bit versions of both the MP client and TV Server.
My understanding is that it will not be possible to perform an upgrade install from a 64-bit client + 32-bit TV...

So far I have installed an MP1 server and MP1 clients. Now I want to connect a Raspi to the MP server.
Is there a HowTO for this? I installed the MPserverKodi plugin, shared the corresponding directories, and activated smb under Windows. Nevertheless, Kodi remains with the message 'PVR Manager is being tested: 0%

Thanks for your reply.
In my configuration this setting is set to "no".
To avoid misunderstandings, the MP window size changes on screen resolution changes, MP always fulfills the whole screen.
Also, the home screen buttons size is adjusted.
Only the font size is not adjusted to the new screen resolution.

Some videos break the aspect ratio of the output resolution to TV (even the MePo GUI changes aspect ratio)

That was it! :)
I had to set it to "Maintain display scaling". I think it was set to "Maintain Aspect Ratio", which added black bars to MediaPortal when playing videos that didn't conform to a strict 16:9 ratio, I suppose.
Thanks to everyone for the patience and help, I can finally enjoy videos fully.

The reason why it occurs is due to the the number of files scheduled to be recorded.
