Sometimes I need to pause a movie in order to read some information, but I always have the blue mini-osd on the bottom on the screen and it never goes away. I know for a big OSD the time out can be selected from MediaPortal configuration General, On-Screen Display, Display Timeout (sec.), but it doesn't affect the Pause timeout...

Hi, I have recently changed the name of my computer, but the TV server configuration still uses the previous name, which result into a error. I was wondering where the TV Server Configuration stores the settings, so I can manually change the name to the new one, and hopefully solve this issue.

I would assume it works, but perhaps someone can confirm this that's actually using Disaster's release. Note that the standard install only supports MP 1.0, 1.0.1 and 1.0.2. There are binaries for MP 1.1 Alpha on the forum (For The Record - View topic - Binaries for MediaPortal 1.1 Alpha) which can be applied afterwards (after...

Short answer: no. Some user inhere have had success with Popcorn Hour as a "client" but this is just reading a list of streams and picking one from a simple interface. An option would be to build your own PC-client from cheap and/or low-power hardware. Think Eebox, or the ION platform which is supposed to do FullHD (1080p) but may...

I guess when people build HTPC's generally the thing they try to is to reduce heat so that lower rpm fans can be used. The objective usually being that the machine is as quiet as possible so that you're not hearing it hum during quiet parts of a movie or tv show. A decent case will take care of a limited amount of sound dampening but...

Nothing new there then! I simply want to be able to utilise this fantastic screen it its full potential.

It would be great if there were utilities to underclock fast graphic cards (a bit...

late review, but its perfect. When you switch the selector to MediaCenter control the mouse becomes a 4 directional selector and other useable buttons light up orange. the full keyboard control is easy to navigate with the pad etc. very kewl little toy. again i got mine for $89.00 delivered so not too bad.

I searched the forums for answers but I could not find any. My question: I have a 500 gb 5400 rpm usb drive . Is this drive sufficient to handle the SQL database or will it be too slow? I assume I would reference the drive as \\pc\drivename. Any special considerations when using a usb drive with Media Portal?
