[QUOTE="pairajacks, post: 394455, member: 89898"] I've struggled with MythTV, so now I'm looking to try a windows based PVR. My setup: Windows XP Haupauge PVR-150 (not the MCE). I have the standard 4-button "dog bone" blaster Cable set top box (Comcast) Questions 1. Blaster to change channels; Can this be done with my non-MCE version of PVR-150? 2. How to get TV schedule data; Does MediaPortal use Schedules Direct (like MythTV)? Is it easy to get/maintain/expensive? 3. Does the wakeup and shutdown computer for recording a show work well/easy to set-up? (I don't want to leave my computer on all the time. This is actually where I had the most problems in Linux. I figure with Windoze, I won't be as lost. [/QUOTE]
