MediaPortal 1 Talk (73 Viewers)

General talk regarding our HTPC-software MediaPortal 1 takes place here.
Hi! I asked this question in the german forum, but nobody answers, so I try it here: At the moment I use DVBViewer as my HTPC-Software, it's great for TV, but not so good for multimedia. So I tried MediaPortal, which looks great, especially the large covers and description of the movies and audio-cds. So... I want to have my...

Hi, I'm about to get a new motorized dish and I'd like to give TVServer a try. What I'd like it to do is moving the motorized dish to the correct position in order to record a program. In other words, it should know which satellite broadcasts the channel and than move the dish according to it. And let's say I want to...

Hello guys! I am starting to use the Mediaportal Server 1.0RC2. I have scanned the channels with my KNC1 S2 DVBS card. The only channels I am not getting are the ones with 9/10 FEC. I can scan the channels in DVB-S2 that are using for example 2/3 FEC. Is it possible to scan the channels with 9/10? Thank you for your...

Would it be possible to configure all of the channels by parsing the KingOfSat site? If so, that would mean you wouldn't have to re-scan every time the channels moved around.

Hi, Is there a way to save TV server settings when moving from RC1 + SVN to RC2. I know about not deleting the database and about how to export the channels/schedules. But what about other settings (like the recording options and webepg import settings). I have three cards and it can be a pain to re-enter all of the settings...

For multiple clients, each machine needs to be configured. Currently there is no supported centralised database storage.
