sounds like something got "broken" during the installation MediaPortal has a TV-Engine inbuild, which uses the Microsoft StreamBufferEngine (included in WinXP). Because of all the flaws this MS SBE has, we developed our own, stand alone TV-Engine. The TV-Server. The TV-Server seamlessly integrates MyTV into MediaPortal and...

The internal TV-Engine of MediaPortal is no longer in development, so the only thin i can advice you is to install the MediaPortal TV-Server. I also own a Skystar2 and use it daily. No issues with the TV-Server. :)

You need to look at the device ID of the Capture Card and then edit the CaptureCardsDefinitions.xml file in the Media Portal directory. Look here: Add TVCard to natively supported list - MediaPortal Wiki Documentation However, if you install Media Portal RC1 it should detect the tv card automatically and you won't need to go...

Sorry for having asked. It was easy to solve the issue. I just didn't know that there's also a dvbt.xml file in tv server folder. I had changed the frequencies in the dvbt.xml file of media portal folder.

MCE Remote was a great investment. Works well with MP and has a nice loooooong USB cable, not to mention that the range is really long and wide. Had another remote that I bought new and just tossed in the trash. range was like 2 feet, also said it was MCE compatible.

The only way to do it while in the database view is to sort by genre. If you are in file explorer mode, you can have all of the childrens titles in a seperate share folder.

Yup, I have the Hauppauge Nova HD and it works great with MediaPortal. BBC HD can be received with a DVB-S card however this may change in the future ITV HD, a modification to the TSReader.ax is required, in time I beleive this will be done. Channel4 HD is obtainable with a standard Sky Subscription card

MP1 MP2 Slow listing DE
I'm trying to move away from the share view. I waited 1-2hrs for MP to scan my movies and TV. The results were not good. Probably because my file names need some cleaning and because I have file in folders. not a lot of info in the manual or wiki section besides the obvious desciption of MP settings. It would be really nice to have...
