Since I don't have a remote, it would be nice to use the mousewheel for changing programs (it would keep me from having to grab my keyboard all the time)

Girder will do the job for you. With its mouse plugin, you can configure it to send certain keystrokes when you spin that wheel... :wink:

Yes, but it's:
- not free
- an extra program which would be running all the time

It would be a small addition to MP, but a very usefull one.

I totally agree. But for now it's a workaround as there are no real alternatives. Maybe it's built in some time. If you are a programmer, you can get the sources and implement this feature. You can send it in, maybe it will be included then.

4.5 is really old. I'm not sure 4.5.5 even is a version that actually existed. You should be able to install .NET Framework 4.8.0 on Windows 7 SP1

I've now ticked the box to "Use EVR for LiveTV", with a default display refresh rate of 50Hz. In combination with tweaking some of the Nvidia 3D settings for the MP executable only, I now have a...

Update: Problem solved! The electronic program guides (tvguide.xml) have been successfully transferred to MediaPortal. The issue stemmed from the corruption of one or both of the mc2xml.dat and/or mc2xml.exe files, for an unknown reason. Consequently, even though the tvguide.xml file appeared to be updated, its content kept being an...
