I just installed media portal and when I start the program (after I configured it) it hand up on a blue screen saying "initializing directx"

I tried to uninstall and then reinstall. I still have the same problems

Thanks in advance

    Please post your system specs. Most likely you are having too old GPU that doesn't support all the needed features.

    HI Rrcpa,
    There are some things very important like tourettes mentioned.
    Have you got the newest version of Directx9c (November 2008)?
    Have you got the graphic card with DirectX9 support?
    Have you got the newest driver for your graphic card?
    In some cases can help using "EVR" mode in the MP Settings (MPConfiguration/DirectShowFilterControl/VideoRendererSettings/choose EVR.

You can sniff http comunication with the help of Wireshark or Fiddler to determine channel url which can be used to create IPTV channel in TV server. If the url is not static(changes dynamically)...

    I tried setting the windows screensaver to power off the display on my MP1 HTPC but in fact it only blanks the screen ("no video signal") on the TV I suspect the AVR has something to do with that. If I manually put the TV only into standby when TV is playing but paused then on wakeup I could not immediately take it out of pause and...

    Yes correct that would have solved it. I guess I was more interested in finding out what I had done to cause the problem as the error message was of no help. By deleting everything I wouldn't have known so it was a learning curve for future reference. Fully understood I thought that might be the case. I also had some issues with...
