    Can I get MP1 to open in the Recorded TV screen?

    Hi, is it possible to configure Media Portal 1 so that when it opens it goes directly to a specific screen, instead of the home screen?

    MP2 Server is waking HTPC in the night

    Hi, I have MP2 installed on a HTPC in the bedroom. The machine is put to sleep (S3) via the remote when not in use. Since installing MP2, it is waking in the night. When I run a command prompt and the 'powercfg lastwake' command, it shows this: Wake History Count - 1 Wake History (0) Wake...

    MP2 client not connecting to server

    Hi again. I now have MP2 server and client installed on the bedroom HTPC and have added a USB tuner, and it is working really well for live TV, as a standalone machine. However, the original problem is still present, that I can't get any other client machines to connect to it. Now, I have just...

    Hi. All on one home network. I tried temporarily turning off the firewall and anti-virus on both machines, it made no difference.

    MP2 client not connecting to server

    I have today installed MP2 to try it out. I installed a server / client set-up on my laptop, looks really nice, and I got the TV server up and running with a USB DVB-T2 tuner really quickly (y) I then installed the client only on a HTPC in the bedroom, and it just will not see or connect to the...

    Any way to change refresh rate to 1080i25?

    A-ha, that looks like it will work, thank you! I don't really want to go down the MadVR route just now, I have just done a clean install of Windows 10 on that HTPC and I am trying to keep things minimal and uncomplicated. The Nvidia CUVID workaround should be okay for me for now, I am mainly...

    Any way to change refresh rate to 1080i25?

    Yes, interesting input @joecrow and @CyberSimian. Thanks. I am happy to have found a workaround for now, but ultimately it doesn't feel like a completely satisfactory solution. Firstly, because it doesn't seem to work for all, I guess it must be hardware dependent, and secondly, we are having...

    Any way to change refresh rate to 1080i25?

    Ah, sorry, I had misunderstood your original post. Are you saying I need to use YADIF and MadVR? My experience of MadVR so far is that it is really fiddly to set up, any quick pointers on how to best implement it?

    Any way to change refresh rate to 1080i25?

    I have just tried YADIF and various other settings in LAV, and the issue is still there for me :( I also just started up Live TV on the BBC News HD channel and the news ticker was flicking between being nice and white round text and smooth action, then suddenly jerky and full of horizontal...

    Any way to change refresh rate to 1080i25?

    No, the issue is pretty much apparent in all players, except Plex Media Player. I then realised that Plex Media Player was changing the PC output to 1080i25, and when I do that manually, and play the file in Media Portal, the issue is not there.
