[QUOTE="Marvin Miller, post: 1068188, member: 146489"] Interesting...just for reference, the 'new' guide service they talk about (in Windows 7+) is actually the same old guide service which is provided to Windows Media Center users by Zap2it. I suspect the 'new' references he's mentioning are due to the extra metadata fields that they now include in the stream (Director etc). I do wonder if it's required though as my cable provider does send (in some fashion) guide data to the STB that they provide. It would have to be fed over the cable but whether it's something MP can decipher natively is probably something I won't know until I try it. This brings me to my last question (I promise!); Is it possible to do a side-by-side install of Media Portal alongside of Windows Media Center? I know this was possible with SageTV (and very handy). Thanks again! MM [/QUOTE]
