TV3 is running as a service. It could be that Vista isolates input from services?? Meaning that GetLastInputTime does not work reliable from within a service. Can you create a service that logs the result of the function and then play around? Somewhere in the TVServerSetup. Exactly. It informs the TVS of MP activity. For...

Hi All, I am VERY new to MediaPortal, but I've read A LOT over the last week or so, so yes, I have searched, read the documentation, etc. I am a long time user of XBMC and LOVE the way it works. It's simple, clean, but it requires the use of the controller, and setting it up on multiple TVs isn't really ideal. I'm looking to...

MP1 MP2 Multiple move import folders? (1 Viewer) DE
you could also use the database which will then include extra info and show all the movies. You could then use the genre/title/actors/etc view to narrow down the list if you want. look in the documents on the wiki to see how to set that up.

I'd disable last access time to keep the cpu/hdd activity down. use the following command in command prompt (cmd.exe) to do this. fsutil behavior set disablelastaccess 1 That command can relieve a lot of performance related issues. Also run a defragmentation on the partition/HDD that has windows on it.

Please tell us how you setup your EPG. Did you set it up to grab from DVB or did you use an internet grabber? Also, please attach a log of the enabling of the EPG (that might show how you get duplicated channels).
