Thanks Taipan, that's exactly what I meant. I would upgrade to a digital card if I had the budget but I honestly don't see much need as I only use MP for watching tv/movies.

MP1 MP2 Windows Home Server DE
Anyways.... As far as I understand it it's just a 2003 server box with some missing services + an additional service + a client frontend to call into this service. The most exiting thing for me would probably be the headless backup and easily expandable data retention system (raid but not raid....will have to read more about that)...

If you press 'P' to resume playback and you have Media Portal 0.2.2.0, then it may be because 'P' has been assigned (wrongly?) to auto-zap as well as the normal 'Play' function. Open the configuration, go to Keys and sound, look under full screen TV the key assignment for autozap and delete it.

Hi Martin - I had the same problem - the simplest way to solve this problem is if your videocard can handle both monitor out's independetly - you do not have to define the TV as a "mirror" of the PC monitor - you will not be able to configure your tv to a acceptable view if you select the same "size" for your tv as the one for you...

I have a sort of fix for it. Seems MP grabs the thumb for the first movie that starts with a number and uses it for the folder thumb. I fixed it by grabbing the thumb from the thumb directory and moving it to the movie folder.

MP1 MP2 picture in picture DE
there is nothing special about those cards, they do not support PIP natively. However, the Pinnacle software does support PIP. The other cards on that page don't support it because they are not dual tuner cards.

I've always liked the idea of using DVB multiplexes to their max.

I've noticed that you're not offered the initial setup screen after clicking "My TV" for the first time if you've set this in a previous installation. Should there be a settings page available to me anywhere? I couldn't spot one, although I might just be being daft. Thanks, James

to see what codecs MP uses: open MP in windowed mode and start graphedit to see which codecs are used. For me I have FFDshow installed and PowerDVD for my DVD's and Mpeg2's for x264 I would either go for ffdshow with x264 support or download CORE x264 http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=96059
