[QUOTE="jgriffin, post: 134497, member: 47753"] Hey all. I'm currenly building / testing my first HTPC with Vista MC and am considering switching to MediaPortal. I just have a few questions that cover a host of topics.. a) I'm playing with 0.2.0.0 on my XP x64 machine (i installed it ages ago when it came out) and it's really really slow. Is the load time of the app and the config app normal? It will be loaded on Vista x32 in "production" but wanted to check to see if this was the performance to be expected. b) I want to be able to watch TV and listen to a CD in my collection at the same time. MC can't do this, can MP? If not i will have large problems with WAF c) Can i record radio? d) The original idea was to have a central htpc and use extenders, but the MS ones have a gazillion limitations. Are there any hardware clients that work with MP ? Or is it possible to build a tiny PC with enough guts to run as a client? e) Can i turn off the album titles below each image in the "My Music" display when i display by album? In MC you just get a heap of images, with the title at the top when you have that album selected. In MP i'm seeing this mess of truncated titles. TIA [/QUOTE]
