Thanks. At first I had a hard time finding IRSS, but got it now. Have to check documentation and setup to get it going. I think it will work. And I shouldn't have any MCE conflicts as I have that turned off completely. (Why use anything but MP??). Girder seemed to expensive for an old program for me. And more complexity than needed...

I'd like to be able to setup TVServer to automatically delete programs if not watched for a week ? I know it can be done when you initially record programs but is it possible to do it AFTER ? I'm not averse to a little mysql tweaking but not sure what I need to tweak :-) Thanks Brian

Be aware. It highly depends on your environmental conditions (DECT telephones, Bluetooth devices, other WLANs) as these have influence on packet roundturn trip which is from my experience similar important as bandwith. To be on the safer side you should go wired or 802.11n on 5 Ghz which does not share frequeny with other technologies...

MP1 MP2 Scrobble missing DE
OK, I think I've got it working and I know I learned something about the new MP 1.0 First, yes I was able to login to last.fm. But in my latest futzing around, I was also able to surf last.fm channels through the last.fm plugin window. That hadn't been happening before so I suspect at least part of my problem was on their end...

Yes I believe it does (TS_Video and all that). Depending on how you want to rip the movie, I simply dump the files into a folder, re-name that folder then load it in the movie database. Also depends on how you want to play the actual movie, I use daemon tools to load the .iso and then have PowerDVD running as I much prefer that over...

Hi there! I'm using mediaportal in combination with a fileserver where all my mp3s are stored.
