MediaPortal 1 Talk (53 Viewers)

General talk regarding our HTPC-software MediaPortal 1 takes place here.
Hi, first off, let me say that out of all the programs that I have tired, mediaportal is the only program that can effectively record two or more shows back to back without any trouble. Kudos to the developers for a great all around functioning app. I have a question aout recording quality. I have a Hauppauge WinTV PVR USB2 card and...

I've got a bit of a problem. I've bought an ATI 8500DV card and it does work with the PC as I've downloaded the drivers OK, you don't seem to be able to download the ATI MMC as they only have updates for the original installation but I don't have the original CD :( Does anyone know where I can get a copy of the original 8500DV...

Sorta what I expected. However, it may easier to wait & see what the ReplayTV / Hauppauge 'Joint Venture' produces. I'm thinking that the RTV branded capture card would create the index file for use with legacy RTV hardware on the network (Networked ReplayTVs skip commercials automatically when streaming from other ReplayTVs on the...

Well... still got "My" after using RC2. Also; there is a graphical bug - a white dot above the letter "g".

XMLTV can be scheduled as far as I know, using windows scheduer. There are some threads around here about it I'm sure. As for the client server idea, its been discussed many times and is quite popular, unfortunately the main focus is on the next release of 0.2 stable. I believe the client server idea is going to be included in...

I also think this probably isn't a good idea. This would increase the workload for the devs. They are always sworking on the TV engine so there would be duplication to make sure the core system always has the same version for testing purposes. If people want to test MP, then why can't they simply use the latest release version...

why port, try hacking to work... I've kicked around the idea of using the mono project, and maybe somewine, to make mediaportal run under linux.

It's really no big deal for me. I have no need/want to use any of the newer features of MP. I just use it to watch TV, DVD's and (don't tell the MPAA :lol: ) rent and rips from Blockbuster online. Web browsers and the like I really have no use for. Also, like I said, I think I tried just about everything to fix it. I didn't mean...

Thanks very much, guys. I think that Peter is closest to the case study that I was hoping for, so I guess that the only question I have for you, Peter, is: what kind of compression are you using and what kind of quality video is resulting?

thanks. i'll look out for the auto tv thing, or try the home thing if it doesn't work. it actually had tetris stuck as default for a while, i never figured out why. thought it might have been to do with the last plugin selected when you exit the program, but it didn't work when i tried it with other stuff. nah, i've not posted...

that's alright, i'd figured out the primary/secondary thing and any major problems i had i search for, that was just a general list of things that were probably affecting everyone and seemed to need improvement, didn't know where it would fit really and a "media portal is great" post made most sense, as it is. 8)

Take a look at the "MyBurner" plugin. Even if you don't have a burner, it can still automatically convert a DVR-MS file to MPEG at the end of a recording. It's very fast too, as all it has to do is remove the wrapping. I'm pretty sure it's built into MP.

My HTPC has a wired ethernet connection to a Mac and the Mac HD is mounted as a network drive on the HTPC using the built in SMB sharing of Mac OS X. Any video files that play from this share has a wait time, almost as if MP is buffering the data. The wait time is directly related to the length of the video, so a five minute video...

Life will go on until the next MP release! :) If you're...
