AW: MP records tv in ts file type not dvr-ms Hi, you could try to rename the .ts files to .mpg (which in fact is the same format). Maybe your recording software is just too stupid to know this. If your software is not able to handle mgp files, it will be the answer of TLD...

Hi there :) Usually the mediaportal.exe program will start the config program if no configuration was done after FIRST install. So make sure you start the configuration program and exit it with the OK button. If that does not help, maybe the file (or directory) is read only to the program. Check that the user under which mediaportal...

Not true, I use IRRS with MP 1.1.2 without any problems.... So whats the problem exactly? Did you teach your Remote's codes to IRSS? What happens if you send a test-blast...does the IR-transmitter blink?

Hi again You will have to give some more information on what you did and what is happening. Make sure you read and follow the installation instructions first. If you struggle with TVSeries, best would be to open a thread in the TVSeries forum with specific questions and also attaching log files.

MP1 MP2 graffic card DE
Just buy a Radeon HD 5xxx series card and you should be fine. They are cheap too, not more than €50. I have an ASUS Radeon HD5550 and it's playing all my files flawlessly (even vector adaptive deinterlacing). Don't get too excited by buying yourself a HD 6xxx or HD 58xx card. Even HD 57xx is too much if you are just throwing media...

Are you sure problem is in video preview or in video player itself. I mean, I'm quite sure problem is there because MediaPortal is actually playing something. There are few things you might wanna try: 1. There is a option to keep MediaPortal on top while video is playing 2. There is a videoOverlay.xml in Skin folder. Try to remove...

Hi again I think that TV Server should already have linked the video PID for the aquarium to each of the "radio" channel. The problem may be caused by the fact that the video is not encrypted but the audio is. TV Server uses the audio to check whether a channel is encrypted. If it is, then it sends all the streams from the channel to...

Just FYI, the current version of Touch IR already allows you to control EventGhost on one computer from Touch IR Server running on a different computer, or from an iOS device, so that works today.

Hi, I just installed everything and I have a successful connection when I click "test," however, then I click SAVE and it just loops me back to the login screen again. I leave the hostname blank for the successful connection, but it just puts my computer name back in there after I click save. Thoughts? Thanks. Richard.
