Hi all,
at the moment (0.2RC2 CVS from 2.1.) MP's DVD Navigator is not useable for me.

- from fullscreen TV DVD's don't start at all (MP hangs)

So I integrated VLC as...

Hi guys,
I’m using BSPlayer as my movie player in MP. Since I wanted to use the Hauppauge remote also for this player I attached a section for the irremote.ini for BSPlayer according to Flipger’s description ( http://nolanparty.com/mediaportal.sourceforge.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=621 ). It took me quite a while to find the...

I bought a DVI to HDMI converter, set my resolution to 1280*720 (which is what I used previously with component) and now not only do I have a crisp and clear DVB-T picture (which I had with component) but my analog input is now crisp & clear and just as good if not better than direct input to the TV.
It's unbelievable the...

I even have a motherboard with both SPDIF in and out so they do exist! I'm only using the SPDIF out though... I also have a PVR-150 where I hook up my STB's audio out into the 150's Line-in.
This is not an answer to the original poster's question but rather a gotcha that one should be aware of...

hi!
but you can't play more then one file. if you want to play movie_part01 and movie_part02 you will need a playlist and a way to tell vlc to play this playlist. i have written a script for myhtpc which generates a temp playlist on the fly. this script won't work with mp. have to take a look into it. but it would be much nicer...

The disadvantage of using say a 32KB cluster is that a 1 byte file will actually take up 32KB on disc, so if you have many small files you end up wasting large amounts of storage space.
In Windows Explorer right-click on a small file (try and kind one under 4KB) and choose Properties, there you'll see two sizes reported, the actual...

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...

Hey all, I spent the time to make a logo image for each channel on my cable service (out of Phoenix, Arizona). I started off using the swedish .psd file and decided to size the logos at 32x32 pixels. I found that if the images are bigger, they end up getting resized down on the tv and in the webinterface which I use frequently. So...

Has anyone else noticed that editing the DVB-t details in the config doesn't work anymore with any 0.2.x.x version including svn
As soon as you run MP and select the channel the changes are wiped from the database and have no affect.
The changes are saved because reopening the config after changes have been made shows they are...

I had problems with TV losing sync (flashing black and white / a little bit badly formed picture) for a short period with my NVidia 5200 when :
1) timeshifting was turned on / off
2) channel was changed with timeshifting on
Enabling "Force TV Detection" in Display properties -> Advanced -> NVidia tab -> Tools solved this.
