Hi bwhite, I use MP in a server / client setup. The server has 3 x dual DVB-T & DVB-S cards, and this streams over a EOP network to a Zotac Zbox client in the kitchen and the bedroom. I get full HD streaming too. I use MCE RC6 remotes on all units for ease of use by the GF. There are some good setups noted >>here<<

MP1 MP2 DLNA and NAS and Samsung LED TV (1 Viewer) DE
The playback using DLNA on your new TV is likely to be very very similar in quality compared to mediaportal. An HTPC with the right setup could achieve better quality post processing of video, however whether or not you can notice the difference is another story, I would say the average person would not notice a difference in quality...

mm, I can see how its hard for somebody in NZ to debug problems in US CA SF Bay area. looking at the 3707 bug, maybe that is the problem Unknown 28-1, is PhysChan = 28, KFTL 28.1 is 1 of the few channels with Phys=Virtual.

MP1 MP2 Remote controller (1 Viewer) DE
If it's a MCE remote, then in MePo config, in the REMOTE section and tick 'Use Microsoft MCE remote or keyboard' and your home:-) If that doesn't work, you probably need to provide more info on the remote than given above. Good luck - JCMP

Hi Sagaia As RonD say's 'use the forum', you'll find most questions answered there. One thing I will say about TVSeries - when it comes to mapping, keep an open mind about some renaming of series/shows on disk and manually setting the series/season/episode during the import, this may be rather easier than updating the rule base...

The PureVision series by Catavolt does it well. PureVisionHD 1080 is for 1.3.0 alpha only, others are for 1.2.3. I believe Catavolt developed the default skins as well and they also support a mouse. These are the only skins I know of to support a mouse well. There is a config option (in the primary GUI page) that you should choose...
