Yep, sorry should have said its all on one pc. I have rebooted the pc and then I was able to get TV ok. But then i accidentally started timeshifting (a wayward mouse click seemed to start it!) and the whole pc then came to a halt. Rebooted again and started Media Portal again, but this time could not get TV ? and Media Portal is...

Thanks guys. It turned out that there is some sort of bug related to downloading data on too many series. It just manifested itself as not downloading the episode names. I just wrote a couple of custom regular expressions and downloaded data for a smaller number of series at once and everything worked.

Unless you have changed the settings,then the default choice is the MS SQL Express edition.

well I guess the 9000 may work better than the 7500 since it is DX9 compatible, but it will place a lot of strain on your CPU, which may not be up to the job. A true hardware DX9 card will take over a lot of the rendering work and give a much happier end result. Oops, I think I mis read your question sorry. I doubt you'll have...

Most digital cameras now have movie modes that allow people to take short clips. My Pictures folder is getting more and more of these. While viewing with the Pictures plugin they don't even show up. I tried adding .avi to the "picture extensions" section, which makes the files show up, but when clicked on, nothing happens. I'm...

Okay, after a complete reinstall the problem with the sleep/hibernate buttons in the Home screen seems to be solved. I've yet have to see Power Scheduler do anything but from what I've read on these forums the client/server structure made it extremely unpredictable (pity, worked great in 2.3.0). The focus problem is still there...
