Hey all, I'm, obviously, new to the whole HTCP thing, but taking a look at the solutions avaliable, MediaPortal looks absolutely awesome - especially considering it supports regular Windows XP. I'm going away to college soon, and I figure instead of taking a TV (or my roommate taking one), I'll just get a TV Tuner installed in...

nVidia cards can output sound via the DVI connector - the drivers work out from the monitor/TV EDID info if the connected device can accept audio-over-HDMI and enable it when appropriate (but the audio input to the card is via an internal SPDIF connector only - it doesn't appear as a Windows sound device like the ATi cards do). The...

MP1 MP2 ATI Remote wonder and mediaportal (1 Viewer) DE
Thanks Owlsroost and Radioman :) Been really busy at work to try anything. However, I had a look at Radioman's EG script and it looked impressive :thx: I'm still pursuing the S510 media remote since it looks cool, I found it to be more responsive than the ATI RW. Nice feel to the buttons and nicely laid out. Not to mention that I...

one option: (Click) in MP parlance, a TV Guide is an EPG. EPG's differ depending on what country you are in. There are a number of ways of getting them working. Two common types are XML and DVB. XML is a file you download and parse with the XMLTV plugin in Mediaportal TV config. DVB comes through your TV aerial (like with a set top...

No you only need to use on firewire-port, you could use 2 port since your have them ;-) Even with only one firewire port in use you can watch one channel, and record several channel on the same card if the channels are on the same mux, and record channels on the other card, in theory i could record up to 20 channels SDTV on my 2...

Now I didn't loose it for many days. What I've done is plug my USB tuner to my PC instead of HUB. At least it didsn't say "Found new hardware" on each re-boot. But MP did lose the TV tuner. Then I upgraded my driver. Now it's okay.

Same problem in WMP here. Been trying to find out but seems no one can answer. If you install MP on that machine, just the client, then do a "complete uninstall" of MP, your audio will work. It does something. And doing the complete uninstall option leaves whatever it did alone so audio stays working.
