No, I overwrote the failed installation when I restored the drive image. To be honest, I think that it was probably my fault that it failed, and it would not be sensible for you or another MP developer to spend any time looking at it. Computers are wonderfully versatile tools, but that means that there is plenty of scope for doing...

Just to update. I settled for a Sonos-like solution from the German speaker manufacturer Teufel. It's called Raumfeld and while not quite as smooth as Sonos to use, it does allow for HiRes multiroom streaming. I only have a couple of HiRes albums, but it is nice that I don't have to convert these. Of course Raumfeld doesn't work from...

MP1 MP2 Music Database (1 Viewer) DE
MP1... but I've been able to put my problem down to an "order of procession". I knew I had no luck with the menu, but had I tried it after I sorted out the database import? Once where I had just "list" as a layout option I now had many others including "cover flow". Happy now! Just need to figure why playback suddenly stops after a...

Hum, how embarrassing. So my time zone was wrong. The result of trying to figure out Windows 8.1 and install MP at the same time. Getting things on track wasn't so straight forward: Correcting the time zone still left the guide bad, which might of corrected itself if I wasn't impatient, so I purged the guide using the TV Server...

MP1 MP2 Turn Off Subtitles DE
After a little bit of digging, I found an article which inform us: As we all know, video formats, such as MKV, MP4 and AVI, can contain several subtitle streams in different formats or languages in one file. Technically, subtitles are divided into two types: hard subtitle and soft subtitle in video files. Hard subtitle is a part of...

MP1 MP2 TBS6985 tuner card DE
The TBS cards (in my opinion) are awesome. Reliable, find all channels, solid drivers, good support from TBS...etc. Just install the TBS card, install the driver then load MP Tv server and you should see 4 dvbs2 tuners in the tv server settings. TBS cards are well worth the money. Really impressed with them. I've had a couple of...

Well the IP address has been the same since connecting so I assume it's fixed, as I understand none fixed IP change all the time. When you say if it's reliable, how do I know if it is?

At the moment there are unfortunately no more skins available yet. We still hoping for skinners to step more into MP2. All configuration of MP2 is done inside the GUI, no need for external programs.
