Just wondered if there is any working method of getting live 3D tv working in mp and also sbs mkvs. I am about to get a 3G tv and was hoping that mp will support it.
Also anyone know if this is being built into the DNA for mp2?
Thanks
Bob

Thank you I will try it this weekend. I have been running 4TR with Argus until some months ago, but now I have only MP because I had many "No signal" messages in 4TR.
I really miss the scheduling system where I can automate search/recordings.

Yep,
I use a coax cable from the PC to my Sony receiver.
And then I use MPA and MPV codec to pass all AC3 and Dolby straight to SPDIF.
It works like a charm.
The only problem I have is with DTS movies... as the sound stutters

Hi guys.
Just wanted to share something with the MP community.
I've been using MP for about 6 months now - I've been very impressed from the outset with this program, its features and the fact that it is a free, collaborative effort. The MP community & support are fantastic.
I have recently moved over from TVe 0.2 to TVe 0.3...

I see your points, but I still do believe it can be made to work.
If users scanned their media for the filesnames of their movies, using a regex scanner so that you just get the Film Names (if necessary).
The filenames are then uploaded to a temp store on the web adding to one big list.
Someone with admin rights, (or reliable)...

I've also experienced some problems with my AMD x2 (stuttering DVB-C) even with the latest dual-core optimizer and AMD drivers. Simple fix is to download RunFirst.exe and modify the shortcut so that RunFirst executes MediaPortal. This way affinity is automatically set to CPU 1 on startup.

You can look up the channel frequencies for Brisbane here.
Note that the SD channels and HD channels share the same frequency for each station - its the PID value that determines which particular stream (SD or HD) is viewed/recorded.

Have a look at XBMC (xbmc.org). It has a very clean interface and numerous options. I bounce between it and MP, depending on my mood. BTW, you can install MP without the TV functions.
