Just a general question to everyone. What is the best codecs to select in MediaPortal after installing SAF 6.

The majority of my viewing is avi (Xvid), mkv, TV & Recorded TV.

Cheers,

Sam.

    If you have an nvidia graphics card, CoreAVC is a great h264 video decoder.. not free tho.
    Windows7 has a great mpeg2 video decoder(dvd, australian tv uses mpeg2 also) - comes with win7 and not before.

    You need to check the wiki for TVMosaic, you have recordings as source available once TVM is installed. And of course images and music are part of the NET6 version as for NET4. If you have issues with it further infos would be good.

    Okay, so you should go for the UNC way. I hope this improves your situation.
