MP1 MP2 Cheap Rf/IR Remote DE
I'm looking for a cheap USB remote (under $50). I'd like to find one that is RF (but also has IR to control to the TV if possible). Any suggestions? I've found some that are over $100 but that seems like alot to spend on a remote.

MP1 MP2 Support of XP DE
Hello Jack163 There is no need to roll back. MP 1.6 works fine on XP. The message means that if you ask for help with a problem, we don't guarantee to provide support. We also don't provide support for old versions of MP... so there is actually no benefit to rolling back. This is normal. It is okay. MP and TV Server are still...

Hi mm1352000. Thanks for checking in. I've gotten a bit stalled in the setup owing to outside forces... We traveled for several days, etc. Also, my attempt to switch from COAX to S-Video was stalled because I don't have the correct audio cable on-hand, and diversions have prevented me from getting what I need. My enthusiasm for...

Comcast tech is coming by today to install the CableCard. I wait until I have everything installed before doing the patch so that I can do a before and after comparison. About the Comcast tech...

MP1 MP2 Windows Multipoint DE
Ah right ok, see I use MP TVServer as a central recording place so I don't get multiple copies of the same recorded tv. So my server handles the TV cards, doles out streams to the various clients, handles the centralised recordings, movies etc. By adding a tuner to each VM you get stand alone TV's but each VM also requires the...

I wanted to know is it possible for episode name to have a tag so that it can be added to the skin like genre at the moment. I know there is an option to add it to the EPG Timeline but I tried it and didn't like it. EPG shouldn't be crowded with information. There are standards for XMLTV so common tags could be added, below is an...

Hello T^2 I've asked Silicondust to create/share an SDK/API for controlling the transcoding. The idea would be to integrate the control into TV Server. Ideally each "user" (ie. device) would get their own profile. So, a tablet or phone or web access could get low quality; a full desktop could get high/full quality. It would also be...

After using MP from for 2 years (1.3 Avalon to 1.4 Titan) I noticed the 1.6 upgrade. Particularly of interest was the DB change as I've had an occasional DB crash resulting in a bit of work to fix. I have a server in the basement and three clients. Since I was in the mood I decided on a general systems upgrade - this took the form...

Has anyone noticed since upgrading to MP 1.6, when recording a tv programme in HD, if you pause the TV for a bit, then try to fast forward, the video skips and audio is ok, but when video tries to resume play from the live point the screen goes blank? The only way to reset this is to exit out of live tv, and re select the recorded...

Ok I want to share my latest learnings here. 1. SVP Project http://www.svp-team.com/ provides a refactored version of mvtools, along with a control program. While some problems, like artefacts, persist, others are solved, such as distorted image during seek, adapting to HD material and the necessity of avs coding. 2. HDMI limitations...

I was wondering if it is possible to use your own "backdrop.jpg" and "folder.jpg" files in directories, without the use of Moving Pictures plugin, and to just have the default or titan skin use these images. Currently it will display folder.jpg from outside of the folder, but one you browse to that folder the image goes away to...

Hello gattaca The AVerMedia software encoder is not compatible with TV Server - sorry. If an encoder is not detected, it usually means it is not compatible. If you're technical, you can try to use GraphStudio/GraphStudioNext to find the encoder filter name and add it/them to the SoftwareEncoders table in the TV Server database. This...

Hi. Heard from TT at last. They believe their driver is fully functional so must be an issue with motherboard or other drivers. Not much help.

I agree with both of you, regarding the technical aspects. The decision to accept one over the other (or even none at all), which is often the start of a discussion, is not primarily based on technology in my opinion. I think MP offers a resonable platform for a HTPC solution. This is how far technology goes. On top of that, a...

It would be nice if the music system could translate music genres "on the fly," so the music file itself does not need to be changed. I'm imagining a right-click on a genre in the genre view giving the choice to change it to something else for display purposes, but leave the original intact so it can be reverted easily. You would...
