Avermedia A323AF Tuner card (1 Viewer)

[TAZMDVL]

I have been trying to build an ultimate HTPC mini system. Seneca case, Intel DH61AG MOB, i7 3770 CPU, special adapters to use the PCIe 4 channel header and a avermedia A323AF tuner card. All test well with WIN10 and WMC but DVD only. QUESTION is will MediaPortal work with the AVERMEDIA A323AF card and play Blue ray???

If the TV tuner works with WMC, it will work with MediaPortal to receive (and record) TV programmes that are not encrypted.

MP does not support FM radio tuners, so that part of the card will not work in MP.

MP can play DVD disks, and I think that it can play blu-ray, but I have no experience of the latter, so cannot comment on how well MP plays blu-ray (i.e. what quirks or restrictions apply to blu-ray). Perhaps someone who has used blu-ray with MP can comment?
