    Connection error when installing

    MediaPortal was working without any issue until 24 hours ago. Then it started hanging; the disk it was installed on was quite full, so I thought it might be that. However, freeing up space didn't change that. So, I came here to get the installation file again to reinstall. I saw the version I...

    Using an XBox remote

    I'm wanting to use an Xbox remote to control MediaPortal. Does anyone know if this is possible? Out of the box, the volume buttons don't even work so I'm guessing I need some drives or software or something. Does anyone have any experience with this please?

    No TV or EPG on fresh install

    I was running MP 1. I installed MP 2, initially without stopping the TV service but after realising the error I stopped the service, uninstalled MP 2, rebooted, reinstalled MP 2. I can see the TV configuration window, and the channels can be viewed using the manual control option. I can see the...

    MP2.2 client TV-Server configuration

    Hi, I'm also having problems getting TV working in MP2. I also failed to read the instructions about stopping the service before installing MP2, so I stopped the service, uninstalled MP2, restarted the computer, reinstalled MP2. The TVService is stopped currently, and the MP2 Server Service is...

    TV channel logos

    Hi, just wondering where the channel logos are stored in MediaPortal 2 please? In Australia our ABC channel is showing the American ABC logo, and several channels don't have logos.

    Watching TV on client

    No I only tried it once in the client, watching Prime7. You are right WIN is not working (signal strength too low?). So maybe it is a problem with the router? I just checked and multicast forwarding was disabled, but I have enabled it and set the rate to 300 and now I am getting about 8.5 MB/s...

    Watching TV on client

    I am copying a 2.8 GB file, the speed varies between 3 MB/s and 8 MB/s but seems to sit around 6 MB/s most of the time. I have attached the logs, I tried earlier tonight.

    Watching TV on client

    OK so both client and server are allowed through their respective firewall. When I try to play TV on the client and I have the TV server config open I can see the client starts using one of the tuners and it starts processing packets but I still get the same error of unable to play stream5.What...

    Watching TV on client

    I don't have an Ethernet port on the Surface unfortunately. Is there something I can change to see if it's a firewall problem?

    Watching TV on client

    192.168.1.19 is the static IP of the server yes. Will TV streaming not work over WiFi?

    Watching TV on client

    No it's the same issue with every channel. WIN was actually the one that seemed to work for a second but when I try to view any channel I get the unable to play stream error.

    Watching TV on client

    Thanks for the reply. I actually meant to say in my original post I had set the server address to NOT set the IP address automatically, sorry about that. I am using a Surface Pro 3, which connects to the router (BiPAC 7800N) using 802.11n. I am able to ping the server from the laptop. I did...

    Watching TV on client

    Hi, I have MediaPortal running on a PC (Windows 10) in the lounge room and I want to watch live TV on my laptop (Windows 10). I have installed MediaPortal on my laptop as a client only. When I try to play a TV channel I get a message "unable to play stream5 (or stream6). I have changed the IP...
