General talk regarding our HTPC-software MediaPortal 1 takes place here.
You might want to go to the barbaric way. Open the remote (remove some screws etc) and use a bit of sticky tape to disable the contact for the kill button.

Hi, and welcome :)
As an alternative to Deamon tools, you can also use Virtual Clone Drive.
And yes... MP is impressive... I still learn new tricks it can do - and it is still being thought new tricks (by devs).

Hi!
I´m back. I have tried many things but the stutter is still there. As I believe my problem is TEVII
related, seen with both a S470 and S464, I bought a TBS-6922. It has been running now for a few hours and no stutter at all. I think I need 24 hours before I can say it´s fixed. It looks promising anyways.
The down part is that...

The crucial part appeared to be adding both ffdshow raw video filter and ffdshow Video Decoder into the MediaPortal post processing settings. Let me know if i've missed anything.

Hi, I really love the look of this logo. Is there any chance we'll get a wallpaper using the background from the Maya-skin in combination with this logo? Would be great as a logon/desktop background for Windows.

I am really looking for some help in configuring Media Portal v1.0 to play DVD's.

Unless it's changed recently, Powerstrip won't work fully with modern nVidia cards (apparently because nVidia won't release the hardware programming info).
I'd go with 720p if that looks best.

Hi.
For waking up to record something ONLY!!! the TVServer plugin is relevant. The client plugin simply is to prevent a shutdown while using an MP client. So you don't need the PS client plugin at all to do sheduled recordings. That's why this is working in MP2 too. There is no PS client plugin for MP2 available as it is not...

Hi.
I'm a bit astonished that no one mentioned the DigitalDevices Cine S2 as a reliable Tuner card. Imho it's the best card available today. Or was it because this is a dual tuner card? But afair the DVBSky also is a dual tuner card. I had one before the Cine S2 but did not remember the exact number... The DVBSky was good but the CIne...

How about creating a different partition for each of your TV cards? One card saves recordings to drive 1, the other to drive 2? Also create a separate partition for your timeshifting (if you don't use a RAMdisk).
Mine is set up this way and seems to do the job.

My 2 Cents on why I don't like the separation of app and config.
1. I want a replacement for my set-top box. No set-top box requires a keyboard to update the channel list. (tv-server config app)

GBPVR and networked media tank is an option but I think functionality is limited.

Did anyone ever get this to work properly? After a fair amount of effort I was able to get subtitles to display again after updating to MediaPortal 1.0.1 (using a combination of vobsub settings and a few checkboxes in the MP settings, I would have to look at the installation to determine precisely how I did this). However, now they...

Hey I'm new to mediaportal and I'm trying to get a good idea on what hardware I need to allow my mp box to change the channels on my Direct TV STB via the USB port.

Auto detection appears to be a problem with UK part time channels, which transmit a valid PMT with audio&video PID of 0 while not active. Last time I tried recording (RC3) across channel switch on I got a 0 byte recording - I assume TVserver detected the 0,0 PIDs and stuck with them. Forcing values would be an easy workround.
