MP1 MP2 load movies DE
As always, there is a stupid fix to a problem... For some /&#"(/& reason I did not change the virtual drive in the MP configuration. Since I have 2 HD in the HTPC the default setting was wrong. Just changing to the correct virtual drive solved the problem. :sorry: Thanks for the help! Will be more thorough the next time... :ooops:

Sure, but it is not so difficult to put some standard variables/changes inside plugin config to get the plugin work at a standar level. That wouldn't take more than 2 hours. And a short documetation on the variables/changes so that the user can easily modify those variables/changes in the plugin config. They could at least give it a...

The SD plugin will download the guide data even if the channel isn't mapped to a card, so you should have something. do the HD channels show up in the guide at all? You may want to try naming them from "235 DSCHD" etc to just DSCHD and try and let the SD plug-in match the channel without the channel number. I will double check my...

I was just toying around with MediaPortal and I accidentally chose the IMDB option on a folder which made it think it was a movie. I was wondering if there is a way to undo this.

MP1 MP2 button for exit? DE
Hi this vbs-file does really not close the MP, it does kill the MP. That is why you get the message "MP crached unexpectadely". You can get the same effect with alt+F4 that you can map in Translator. In this way you can't have scheduled recordings of live TV beacause you have killed MP. A better solution is to closing the MP to...
