What is the best codec to use? I am just using the default codec that comes with mediaportal and windows xp mce. Should I use the ffdshow that I see discussed.
NVIDIA's PureVideo codec is quite popular and a good choice if you have an NVIDIA card. Its not free of course.
Otherwise there is InterVideo and PowerDVD codecs (also not free, but frequently ship free with various computer parts such as DVD drives, motherboards and video cards).
ffdshow is mostly an MPEG-4 codec, if i remember correctly the MPEG-2 part is 'experimental'
As kiesow says, the TV server had nothing todo with the playback codec, i thought you mean the codec used in a client working with TV server (such as MP with the tv server plugin)
Yes, I saw that. Was beyond my understanding, however. Didn't see how to set that up. I'm a relative neophyte, who's done hardly any command-line coding.
To be more specific: I don't see, under either "Grabbing Listings" or in the "First use example," where it is designated just where on one's C drive the tv.xml file is...

Looks like there's some kind of error regarding translations that I can't pinpoint about Subcentral. You'll find it in the log file I attached to my previous message. I don't understand it because I use MP in english, I search for subtitles in english and not in my native language, so I can't figure out what's translation got to do...

Thank you for this tip! I'm moving MP TV Server to a new machine. I installed the 64-bit version and most of the MP firewall rules were set to Public. I couldn't connect to the new TV Server from my old single-seat installation running 32-bit until I changed all MP-related firewall rules on the new machine to Private. Before I did...

I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ?
MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback.
If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo.
I have...

Hi.
I'm using Media Portal One in New Zealand and have been using EPG collector for many years, but it died on me today.
Did you find solution to your problem as I will probably need to change media portal to try and import a TV guide from off the web somehow
