That MSDN forum post doesnt say it wont work, it only says it is probably better to use VMR9 because it doesnt register.. there are many (small)...

The problem is really the setup. There's many things you have to know beforehand. First and foremost, is how you plan to use it, and what your environment allows. Everything else stems from this. You also have to know exactly how you're going to configure your HTPC, what codecs and other software you're going to install. Your...

just to add, the 'workaround' for the nova t500 that Paranoid Delusion was talking about can be found here. out of the box the t500 will fail to start TV in mediaportal when it wakes from hybernation, but apparently the above plugin will sort it out (tho i havent tried it myself yet). ;)

One option is to replace the windows shell from explorer.exe to MP. This would require a reg hack, but it isn't difficult to do. I know this works for Meedio quite well, but haven't tested it for MP yet.

Fair enough point about consistency. A couple of responses: Firstly, I think I could explain to my girlfriend simply enough that you can choose four of your favourite channels which whenever you switch to them, you can always rewind 30 minutes prior to where you start watching. I think she would even understand that sometimes it...

Standby and Resume works absolutly fine for me. But is there a way to speed up the sleep in time? Without TVE3 my pc sleeps in in a few seconds. With TVE3 it takes about 20-30s (sometime more, sometimes less) before the system sleeps. Not a real big problem, but maybe there is a way to speed it up.

I did some searching and found all kinds of DirecTV related posts but it seems that all were with regard to how to record from DirecTV, control the reciever through the serial port, or trying to get the USB port control to work.
