Hey everyone, sorry if this is a repost, but I searched all over and couldn't find anything related to my problem.
I just installed the RC3 of Mediaportal, and have gotten almost everything working (at least enough to not bother the people who are using the HTPC.) However, when I go to watch TV, the picture appears only in the top...

This isn't spcific to this topic but it's a method I use for my mega media setup.
My media server is in my studio and it collects dust under a desk. It holds all my music, movies and TV shows. It doesn't do TV recording, that's done on my HTPC.
I use a number of different software solutions on my HTPC and I wanted my media...

So it's because of directx..? I don't know that much about these things, but I got DirectX 9.0c running, and new games which require 9.0c (like Fallout 3 and Warhammer Online for example) run fine.

Hi Ray,
Thanks for the reply Ray. Yes, I have two Tuners. I don't muck around with any of the Mapping/Combinations etc. I don't really understand it - as far as I know, I don't think I need to. I scan for channels for each card, each one comes up with the same list of channels and away I go. They are however hybrid Cards. But I...

you will not get MediaPortal to run on that spec. it will be too slow.

It doesn't really matter imo. The biggest reason for why Vista takes up more memory is that it preloads some programs to the memory so they start up quicker. If you have less memory it preloads less programs. And as mentioned earlier. If you can't afford 2GB of memory these days then you can't afford a HTPC :)
So imo there should...

Hi,
while optimizing my system I found out that starting tvservice takes about 26 seconds on my system. I think this is quite long, or am I wrong? I can imagine that this is a quite complex service which takes it's time to initialize the neccessary components.

Hi,
I have a dedicated TV server with a dual tuner DVB-T card, that sits in the cupboard under the stairs and works really well :-)
On the basis that the three computers I watch TV on, are not left one 24/7, let alone have MP running 24/7, would I have any advantages (in the UK) of using xmltv to grab EPG data instead of just...
