    Speed expectations Hi All, I have been fiddling around with my MP installation to try to improve TV startup and channel change speeds. I have been playing with BDA vs WDM drivers, and even switched back to standard MP (but I missed TVEngine features too much...) Before I spend any more...

    mike, thanks for the advice, I have got TVE3 working and it looks great from what I can see. Before I really put it through it's paces, I need to get the remote going. The SkyStar2 card that I bought came with a remote (TTS35) and what looks like 2 IR dongles: one USB, one serial. My comp...

    OK, I'm a loser. I'm just getting started with MediaPortal and can't get what I imagine is a simple setup working: MediaPortal 0.2.3.0 with a SkyStar2 card. The basic problem is that I don't know where to start. The wiki page on NZ is pretty limited, and I've trawled through this thread but...
