MP1 MP2 Please resolution in windows help (1 Viewer) DE
However, MediaPortal is designed to be run as a 'Front-End' for everything you do on your TV. In most cases, people do not use Windows "regularly" on their TV as well. At least that's the idea ;).

Thanks, I am indeed talking about TV series so I'll take a look at it.

MP1 MP2 Mediaportail client DE
Hi Peter, Welcome! You can certainly stream music to MP clients, I was doing this last night in my kitchen, however I'm not sure about DVD's. I think DVD's only work locally on each clients' DVD drive, unless they are ripped to HDD and then these can be streamed like any other video file.

I'm not sure what you aim to do. Manual Control is mainly used for testing and viewing TV-card status. There isn't really any settings to save there.

MP1 MP2 How to Configure IPTV in TV Server (1 Viewer) DE
Thanks Georgius, I really appreciate your feedback. I was hoping to have support for rtmp addresses as a lot of streaming sites use them. The developer's filter is supposed to support them, so hopefully he'll come back to his thread soon. I really want to have all my IPTV under TV Server so that I can use PVR functionality on them.

Hi Jay, Sorry for delayed response. If your playback is jerky I would suspect that the codec is not using the GPU for video processing.
