You don't need to use webEPG, i was perplexed by this at the begining also. Try grabbing EPG from the DVB Stream instead, find the checkbox in tv config. It'll soon start building up your tv guide.

MP1 MP2 DVD Import / Ripper DE
My solution to the "defective" plugin mentioned, is to use the inbuild plugin called "My Programs". You can add a "Application Launcher" in that. The application to launch should be someting like DVD-decrypter (google it). It accepts arguments. So you can set it to automatically rip a DVD when started. If you need more help I can...

A couple of answers (not all of them)... 0.2.3 is the latest released version. The other versions you tried are not as feature rich, and are less likely to get support for. Daemon tools DOES work in 0.2.3. I use that all the time. Make sure that you have it set to the correct virtual drive number. It's easiest if you have...

I too am an MCE refugee. I recommend running MSCONFIG and disabling all services and startup items that start with "Media Center" OR "eh" (see attachmensts). There are other things you can get rid of, but this is a more a question of taste, and what else you use on your PC. Sorry, I have a German-languge OS, but the attachments...

Hello gen2oo7, this is not possible, some PCMCIA interfaces are compatible to PROGRAMM CAM Interfaces but not to descramble anything. Also MediaPortal has nothing to do with CAM handling, this is done on system level (see forum search for more information on this). btw: You still need a TV card for watching TV, just buying a CAM...

Just to say, latest version of PowerDVD 7.3 has had play "Bluray\HD disk files from HDD" support removed, 7.2 has no problems. Worth upgrading, my opinion, no.

My PDA is an HP iPaq running Pocket PC 2003. The PDA software is OK for controlling MP, but not great. It really just a remote replacement, rather than a skin.

You know, I forgot about RDP actually shutting down the video card on the host end. I only use remote desktop on headless systems. On regular clients I use pc anywhere (slow, I know but I'm on a gigabit network so it's not so bad). I'll give it a try with a monitor when I get home and see what happens. I'll post. Thanks
