This sounds tempting enough to give it a try. I've a had a ocelot running for years now and only recently started with MP. I guess I can do the same batch file approach with the file runner capability of the basic home automation plugin? Does the Ocelot accept these commands while running it's own program, or will this only work if...

A quick tip (learnt the hard way!) if you are using a USB soundcard (E.G. Soundblaster Extigy) and a USB capture card (E.G. Hauppauge WinTV-PVR USB2) even if they are both USB2 (and should therefore have the bandwidth to cope) do not connect them to the same controller on your PC. Most PC's now have 4 (or more) USB ports on the back...

In fact, after the installation, make a complete copy/paste of the mediaportal directory on your hardisk. When a db is corrupted, or something runs bad... Just copy/paste the MP-backup in your Mp install directory. With this solution you can restart a valid version of MP in a few seconds... without a complete re-installation...

MP1 MP2 SQLite3 w/ JDBC DE
To manipulate the Media Portal SQLite3 databases via JDBC, you can use the JDBC driver from: http://www.ch-werner.de/javasqlite/ Following the instructions worked for me. For a general DB GUI client, I use DBVisualizer (http://www.minq.se/products/dbvis/), although any Java based client will probably work. This setup allows me to...

Hope this is the right place and someone can make use of this. I setup WebEPG yesterday to find that none of the UK grabbers support BBC HD with the XML files supplied by MediaPortal although xmltv.radiotimes.com does actually support it. You need to edit both channels.xml and 1-xmltv_radiotimes_com.xml in the WebEPG\Channels...

MP1 MP2 SKY Through TV Card DE
Arbie I'm no expert in this area but if you're connecting through the RF leads, you will need to tune your TV card to receive the SKY signal, just as you would BBC 1. I think the channel used by your Sky box can be dispalyed on the the Pace setup screen. Regards Steve
