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. One of my pet peves with mediaportal is the player, which has to rely on the filesystem for .iso support.(daemon tools)... a real player(video lan client/mplayer/xine) just works with...

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? I'll admit that I need to do a little more research into exactly what quality of video I'd be...

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)

MP1 MP2 CPU requirements DE
Thanks to all who replied! I'll probably go for a Sempron64. I need a new mainboard anyway, because the current one only supports SD-RAM and the combination of a P4 and slow SD-RAM did not really boost the performance. :wink: Greetings, Jan

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...

We, as a society, are always putting deadlines on things.....we need to have that tangible time/date when to expect something.

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

My primary reason for switching back to MediaPortal was the EPG as described above.

I use two Compro t-300s. You can get these cards for $129 each and they also have an analoge tuner. It's only software analoge though, so you still need a trusty PVR 150 but if you want a very good cheap all purpose card then these are a great buy.

It's physically possible, I just don't know if MediaPortal can do it. Many hardware tuners have a "live preview mode" that passes the data through without encoding first. I have a card with the same chip as yours and also was upgrading from an AIW 9000. The problem was with connecting a VCR or DVR into the s-video and then...
