MP1 MP2 m2ts file in MP DE
I found Ripbot264 to be the easiest tool to use so far to transcode files. MP will play .m2ts files. What O/S is being used? Win7 has built in codecs for .m2ts, XP does not.

Thanks for taking the time to go through that :) I managed to get it working by removing all my codecs and re-installing them - now it works a charm!

Hi As Naich said, ISO is working great (you need daemon tools 4.3 lite or better installed, and configured as he said in MP) but, as far as I know, it doesn't work with bluray very well. Because the disk emulation, it uses quite a bit of CPU power and bluray already demands a lot of power, so it is very common to se bluray iso's...

Looks like a good plan BornToLive, controlling everything you want for the PC should not be a problem with the Harmony, you can set it up to emulate an MS Media Center Remote, although you will need a compatible IR receiver. (I don't know whether there is one included with the Harmony 900?) If not, you can get these with Hauppauge MCE...

When I schedule MediaPortal to record a TV program it doesn't always do this. After scheduling the recording I minimize MediaPortal so that it sits in the system tray.

MP1 MP2 Playing wpl's DE
Thanks for that, I don't have a path to set in my configuration settings, but I found my lists path and copied my .wpl's into it. They still didn't work because of the relative pathing in the .wpl files, so I edited them in TextPad and did a global replace on every \..\ in the file. That did the trick! Thanks heaps. Alan
