There's an easy(ish) way to get most of the EPG populated, use MC2XML and WebEPG in combination.
Use this: http://mc2xml.hosterbox.net/ - it takes a little trial and error to set it up but once it's done it's quite good. Use the internal task scheduler to run this every other day, and set MP to import the file regularly.

Regarding record TV, so it's thumbnails (images) of the recorded programs.
But when it becomes more than one program. In such instances, it is a folder with the program 'name on it.
Which is very good for everything to be organized.

Ok so if I add another satellite box will it increase my bill? I have an extra satellite box laying around somewhere but do you have to pay monthly for each satellite box you have? And with this satellite can I just use a splitter on the cable coming from the satellite?

I installed InterVideo and when I go to the general>software tab it says it's not installed. I did find out though that the 1250 doesn't have hardware encoding and the 1600 does which was the card I wanted in the first place until the guy at Microcenter told me they were the exact same except that the 1250 is PCIe and the 1600 is PCI...

I deleted the TV channels as advised and also reinstalled TV Server. This time the scan didn't pick up any stations so double checked the aerial connections and Bingo! one wasn't pushed in all the way. Bit of a senior moment I guess so thanks for the advice.

Hi Blueisland,
I'm a little confused... from your post it seems you are using the manual tuning option, instead of allowing MP to scan automatically.
Are you trying to find channels manually? By selecting the Crystal Palace transmitter from the drop down list under each tuner listed in the server setup, you should select scan and...

A tuner inside your computer would be used with an over-the-air antenna to receive free broadcast tv. See antennaweb.org or tvfool.com to see what channels are available in your area.
Your antenna would then use a cable to connect to the back of your computer (this is a heavy white, black or grey wire with male cable jacks on each...

You perhaps have one/more of the following possibilities:
1) You use MediaPortal as software and connect your laptop directly to your tv (hdmi / dvi / ...).
2) If your television has the possibility to process upnp /dlna streams AND you use Windows 7 on your laptop you can follow the following post of mine:

Hi.
You need a tv card for each channel you want to watch and/or record at the same time. It did not matter if you watch different channels on different PC or record different channels on the same PC. You always need one tuner for one channel.
But this is true only on analogue cable. If you use DVB (no matter if it's DVB-S, DVB-C...

My issue was that I was trying to record to a network share. So I could only watch one channel while recording.
I had to change the recording folder to a UNC path and set the tvservice to run as a user that had access to write to my share, then all was well.
Thanks,
Matt

Apologies for long silence; have been having major problems with Broadband/PC - all fixed now!
Ta for this - I thought you might say that! I have tried several codecs to no avail.
I have other issues with MoviePlus so I'll pursue Serif before doing anything else. Best to close this thread and I'll ask again if need be.

We recommend you use the LAV filters for the internal player, which support a range of different hardware acceleration options for video, these filters will play just about anything, no other filters\codec packs should be installed.
Install from the MP desktop extensions installer, updates will then be shown there as well.
