Thanks for the replies. Looks like I'll have to do a bit of work then! Of course the other option is to have a mini PC connected to the TV and use MP2 on that instead of via Kodi. Something for the future perhaps.

Hi all, As part of my MediaPortal setup, I have a couple of tray apps that I wanted to run. They are related to the remote control for my TV card (Leadtek), but I was having some issues with them - they needed to start in a particular order for everything to work hunky-dory. So, I just knocked up a little .Net utility that can...

Seems to be mostly with videos that are xvid that I get a poorer picture quality. Almost as if sometimes there is an over saturation of the picture. Hard to explain but it's like you see waves of colour over someone's dark black jacket (green or purple) or blotches on a person's skin (as if over saturated). I have SAF installed but I...
