General talk regarding our HTPC-software MediaPortal 1 takes place here.
That sounds very familiar to me. Had the same problems with my PVR250MCE. In addition MP always tells me it is a PVR150.
Compare it to the visual card reference on www.shrpvr.com and it is a true PVR250MCE.
Got it working perfectly with the following driver, which is a PVR150/500 driver.

Congratulations to Team MediaPortal. Believe me I have tried every combination of Media software out there to try and get every component working. They all had serious problems with some part yet MediaPortal is evenly balanced in every aspect.

Dev's need to look at Windows Media Professional Exhibitor
Windows Media Professional Exhibitor is a .Net DX9 tool Microsoft put out as a demo to do dual independent monitors at HD quality.
It sounds exactly like what everyone wants (me too). I don't know how usefull the tool is (I am at work right now), but it shows it can be done.

Is it possible to search the forum for posts which you're watching?

It doesn't has to be that difficult, it could be implemented in a way that the left arrow (on remote or keyboard) trims the left side of the program description, and moving to the right does the same on the right side; then looking at the remaining string like '*string*' would work, and it would be easy to the user (or at least it...

That does sound more straight forward. I always get asked by family members if its a good idea, because to them it sounds like its deleting the recording.

The OSD volume is a good point actually. It should appear no matter where you use it as it effects sound in menus, music, etc. However, it is not such a big deal as the volume buttons still works and there is audible feedback when you make a change. It does turn finding the right volume into guesswork or playing it by ear while...

I build my first mediacentre a couple of weeks ago on a old Compaq Deskpro with specs similar to yours (P1.5 768 MB RAM). Only difference is that I have a Radeon 9200 graphics card.

Hello all!

This has been discussed several times in the past, if you care to dig those topics up. The main issue is not selling the computer with MediaPortal on it (which is fine, as far as I know) but more the fact that MediaPortal is still under heavy development. It is probably not really a great idea to sell a product to consumers when it is...

I was actually starting to look at doing this in plugin form as well, but the issue was that the source I found is in WMV9, and I was hoping to be able to download stuff locally.

Bredbandsbolaget/Viasat does this in Sweden via fibre and ADSL/VDSL. Though the broadcasts are only MPEG2. Crappy thing is that Viasat locks the subscription card to the STB.
A friend of mine uses the solution over VDSL, channel switches takes approx 3-4 secs.
