MediaPortal 1 Talk (44 Viewers)

General talk regarding our HTPC-software MediaPortal 1 takes place here.
Hi, Thanks for the responses. I thought that since the MCE2005 remote works 'out-of-the-box' with Media Portal (at least that's what I understood...), that the Xbox360 one might do the same. Possibly a long-shot. Trying to avoid programming all the commands. Lazy, I know.

Don't count on the built-in compress feature to work. Try the Transcoding plugin

Hi, I've been having this issue for some time now, and it is not really preventing me from enjoying MP but is more a nuisance. When I'm playing DVD or ripped DVD from HD, the audio volume will overtime fade out to very quiet. When I just Rewind or forward 5 sec jump the volume is back to normal for a while. Has anybody had...

MP1 MP2 Directv DE
Hey I'm new to mediaportal and I'm trying to get a good idea on what hardware I need to allow my mp box to change the channels on my Direct TV STB via the USB port. What setups people using to accomplish this? This is actually one of my main reason for switching from mythtv to mp. So I hope I can make it work.:)

MP1 MP2 Codec DE
Well you have a choice, install the ones that come with MP if using as a frontend, or purchased ones such as PowerDVD, Intervideo's WinDVD and Nvidia Purevideo which seem to be the most popular. People get a variety of results from different codecs outputting to different types of TV's\monitors, so the only way of telling, is...

For a start use the Hauppauge remote, its a supported item.:D Mediaportal has never really like being resized whilst anything playing, so do it in the homescreen. MP will allow you to watch one channel and record another with it's own built in TV engine (known as TVE2). TVE3 will allow you to record multiple channels on the...

MP1 MP2 Need honest opinion DE
Right i see... I think i will wait till TVengine3 is stable, as i am wanting to setup all TV tuners in central server to do all streaming and recording. That way, i won't have to worry about putting my clients in standby or sleep mode every night, which doesn't always work. Save a little electricity too :-) Thank you

MP1 MP2 Recording DE
If setting a recording useing the EPG prior to the recording, a single file should be produced. Seperate files are only produced if you use the record now function. Does that help answer your question, or was there something more specific you wanted to know.

OK, I got the guide information to up date (from the config. window) but the guide information it appears is not in the correct place. when I right click in the guide window within MP and select up date the TV guide it says it can't find the XMLTV file. Where should the file be? also will I manually have to do this each time?

Not sure if this applies to all Country's, but think within your own house and for personal use, this is accepted by broadcasters.
