[QUOTE="eyelobes, post: 660931, member: 107268"] I just made the switch from XBMC to MediaPortal this weekend and am kicking myself for not doing it earlier. I have gotten all of my movies, music, and tv shows imported successfully. I've gotten my my media scraped perfectly. I even have HD audio bitstreaming without a problem. Hulu Desktop, Netflix, and Bluray playback all work flawlessly from the homescreen. I am about to give the TV server/client aspect a jump and need to know a couple of things. I currently have knology - which uses a multistream cablecard. I bypassed the settop box and was able to pull about 69 channels just from the tv's internal tuner. Will a NTSC/ATSC/ ClearQAM tuner card take all of those channels plus the OTA HD channels and combine them all into the same TV guide and switch repectively between tuners on the same card? I have never used a tuner card before so i don't know how to hook it up. Also with the ATI internal cablecard and the Ceton quad tuner...Are they supported in the tv server yet? I would love to use that more than anything else. I have searched for about 2 hours all over the net about this and the latest post I found was back in 2009. My hardware is as follows: Win 7 Ult. ATI HD 5750 2x 1tb WD green 160 2.5" for OS 250gb for system backup silverstone htpc case core i5 4gb ddr3 harmony 550 (works awesome since I can use different mappings for external programs [hulu desktop, Arcsoft]) marantz reciever orb audio sats SVS subwoofer Bear with me as this is my first post, and I'm excited about this new frontend. also, what Tuner card(s) would you recommend, I ultimately want to run 2 rooms.
