Is it possible to disable mute and volume in Media Portal? I couple of times I've selected the volume buttons and wonder why there's no audio. I use volume and mute on the av pre-amp so have no need of the HTPC volume/mute controls.

    depending on your hardware you can also re-map the volume and mute remote control buttons to use the signals for your Amp, so the remote controls these functions. that's if you are using a remote. If you are using a keyboard then just do what RTV says (which is usually the best idea anyway ).

    cheers,
    Marcus.

    Learning remote is mapped to my av pre-amp (MCE remote is not used) however I'm pretty sure there are mute and volume icons on a few places in Media Portal, so it'll be good if those can be removed.

    you could edit the skin files to remove buttons, probably not very hard as you would efectivly be breaking that functionality but I am not experienced in skin changing myself

    Maybe they only show the bits information for the x64 version and no bits information for the 32-bit version?

    MP has adjustable audio delay. I don't know whether this works for all video formats, but it certainly works for TS files, and may work for MP4 files. There is a slider that allows you to adjust the audio delay while playing a video. Press the INFO button on the remote control to display the OSD, select the "Audio" icon, and then...

    Many thanks for the answer. So far I've used Logitech's Harmony hub. This allows you to control all components (including the media portal). I have now contacted the Sofabaton hotline. It should also work here like with the Harmony. Unfortunately, not all of the IR codes are correct. You can also learn commands here. But that doesn't...
