i looked for a mixer option for ages in ffdshow - i must be going blind! anyway found that and was happily getting 5.1 sound mixed from stereo - however for some reason it seems to make the video go choppy - going back to stereo makes the video fine again. cpu usage is only 20% or so.. who knows *shrug*

MP1 MP2 Advertising Videos DE
Hi I just browsed through the Microsoft MCE 2005 webpage and found this page (http://www.microsoft.com/germany/ms/mediacenter/demos/index.htm) with nice advertising videos. And just thought it would be fun to make such movies for MediaPortal with a little funny touch. Just an Idea, I don't have the equipment for that and whats even...

I can get a Dvico Fusion lite to go with my full version fusion and passthrough the signal. The passthorugh has a 3db amplifier on it so I assumethe signal strength shows so...

Hi Having taught myself Basic from a book way before I built my ZX80 (yep, that old:-) or had any actual access to a computer, the key is find the thing you want to do (keep it base simple enough to start with) and then re-search on language to allow you to get cracking on building something. Over years (decades:-< I've learned...

AW: All I want for Christmas...! Look into the public WebSVN. Tourettes and all the others are working really hard on the rest of the problems - every day a lot of new commits - so please wait. I think even a SVN version will be released when most of the bugs are hopefully fixed and the new tsreader is ready.

I belive the service is illegal at the very least outside Russia and isn't shut down only because of lack of laws in Russia. See http://www.cdfreaks.com/news/9655 For them to sell outside Russia they would have to reach agreements with the organisation in each country who collects the royalties.

userjan, thanks for the link to that. Amazing, indeed. I use to quite often peruse custom case and system builds to see what folks could come up with but haven't for a long time and never once, did I come across an actual desk that was built with the system contained within. Now THAT...is something! lol Thanks again.

Your TV card & provider use DVB-T. In that protocol several channels are combined in one transponder (aka. 1 frequency). So if you are watching a channel from that transponder, MP can stream (record, transcode, whatever) all the other channels on the same transponder at the same time. That is one of the REALLY BIG FEATURES MP has and...

I know this isn't a helpful answer, but after pursuing this for a while myself, I just decided not to bother. Hard drive are coming down so fast that it just doesn't seem worth compressing TV Recordings. 4tb is now at £125 and by the time that is full they will probably be at £75...

The only tagger which works more or less by itself in my knowledge is the Picard tagger by musicbrainz.org (still in heavy beta, yet quite usable.) It scans your files, autotags files with a (useradjustable) overlap with known files and gives suggestions for other files.
