Hi mods. Sorry but i did not say it is a bug, i just shared my experience. And my experience says: "rica, whatever it is but do not give it a go never ever with 1.0.2 and MS SQLServer if you are using Vista32_SP2. At least a fifty unsuccessful installation of 1.0.2 after ten hours is, i guess, the best proof; isn't it?"...

I'm running out of ideas - I run Vista + nVidia with MP, so my ATi CCC + XP knowledge is a bit limited in the HTPC context (but I run ATi + XP on my work PC). If you attached some screen captures of the CCC settings pages in 1080i mode and 720p mode, plus the info from Moninfo it might help someone spot the problem. What model is...

Hi there :) Not sure what is causing the problem. The devs should be able to answer. Presumably you will already have all the other required software installed, so you can try to extract the separate mediaportal and tvserver exe installation files from MediaPortal_Setup_1.0_RC2.exe. 7zip should be able to do that.

Yes, it does. In short for others who read this topic -- this confirms my belief; currently, fully integrating (read: using a single remote, guide, and record system) paid (subscription) HD Cable into a PC system for viewing / DVR is not possible. Thanks for the reply

You need an MCE remote receiver (USB). The reason I suggest this is because its the most straightforward option. Your Harmony can emulate pretty much anything but MP does MCE 'out of the box' with minimal tweaking required, so thats definitely the easiest option Im aware of. 'official' means anything emulating toshiba or phillips...

I think the issue is that whatever setup you use, the system needs to be as easy as possible to restore from image if something goes wrong. Exactly how you do that is probably a matter of personal preference, but I think Infinity's reasoning is sound to have separate system and MP partitions and images. In this way its simple to...
