Agree on 1) and 2), but anything > 1024x768 "upscaled" by VMR9 aint looking great unless you have some quality channel (e.g. ARD, ZDF in germany for example).
Imo there's a huge difference betweeen VMR9 "scaling" and lets say ffdshow.
Afaik you cant deinterlace and scale using the GPU (ffdshow skips hardware acceleration), sadly...

Same question for DVD...
E.g. MP can stay closed while the server is recording your stuff in the background as a recording slave while you're working on your PC and are doing other stuff.
Also, some like the fact that it's recording using TS streams, not DVR-MS containers. (Can be a bit more handier when doing postproduction on your recordings.)

pshdo,
Theres a pug-in in the TVEngine called ServerBlaster. Is the myblaster version to be used with the server engine.
You need to type the external channel number in the channel setup, use the channel number field. Then select the input for your STB.
At the plug-in sections, activate serverblaster and configure it. Just...

So I was playing arround with the TV server as an update to my standard setup and I discovered it doesn't have support (yet) for the redeye serial IR blaster needed to change channels on a UK Telewest external tunner.
Does anyone know if support for this is planned at any time? Without it I can never use the TV Server and I...

I just think that having the batteries out and using all the buttons helps to drain the stored power and give some kind of reset to the remote. Some people short it using a paperclip.

yeah i would sort of expecting it to just have a poor quality picture or some pixelation or something, not that it would actually cause crashes and instability

Actually, you're right. I don't know why I thought that the recording playback was streamed similarly to the TV. Why would it be. It's on disk, so it's quite probable that it's shared similarly to MythVideo.

Hello,
I have a Nova T SE usb2 stick, mediaportal cant seem to find it, how can i use media portal with this usb stick?
Thanks,
I got to the page where MP searches for channels but it found none. Is there something I should be doing?
I set for UK and cable and pressed scan. Nothing came up.
MCE can see channels OK so they are there?

Hi, and welcome!
Yes, MP can control your STB w/Blaster.
I recommend using MCE Replacment Plugin
Forum section: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/mce_replacement_plugin-f165.html
It has many setup options (blast time, blast type, delay etc.), so it should be able to control most STB (or other IR-devices)

If you are using NTFS it supports soft links (directories) and hard links (files) like in Unix. There are just no programs provided with XP to manage them, but you can find many free utils on the net which can.

Wait for TV Server final version if I were you.
The best MP function for me is the shutdown/wakeup for recordings function and that aint ready for TV server yet so I'm using the stable build MP.
