MP1 MP2 MediaPortal or XBMC DE
Ok I have installed MediaPortal with mediastream skin and XBMC with mediastream skin. When I play a movie with MP the cpu usage at 35%-60% and it plays fine. When I play the same movie with XBMC the cpu usage is at 95%-100% and it plays fine also. So I can actually use both. MP seams to use less resources. So I am going to setup the...

MP1 MP2 Can MP do this? DE
I should imagine so, if you have the right codecs installed. Assuming they play in WMP then they should, just make sure that .wtv is added to the list of video extensions. The other option is to convert them to dvr-ms and then to mpeg-4 (XviD in an .avi container) Converting WTV files this is a commandline tool to convert to dvr-ms...

MP1 MP2 Goodbye MediaPortal DE
Thought I might get in my 2 cents worth. Started with MP last year and have been impressed with it - can view everything i have and mostly TV has been good except for recently when the stuttering has plagued things. Thought I would give W7 a shot with MC - never used it before because it doesn't get NZ DVB-T. Like you say, easy to...

Can you be a little more specific as to what exactly the problem is? There is a music forum here where you may get better support. The scan process extracts the embedded art and places it in \Program Data\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\thumbs\Music. You may want to have a look there. Also, you will be asked for logs. So, clear out the...

Hi, I've just set up MP with a Hauppage Nova S Plus DVB-S card, and managed to tune all the local TV and Radio Channels ok. I can preview the radio channels fine in the TV Server setup, but can only get sound out of a few of them within MP itself. Anyone know why that might be? When I select a channel it eventually pops up a message...
