    Yip, only beta.
    However, you will find many feedback posts on this forum reporting that the current beta release is very stable. I think it will depend on your hardware and codec setup.

    For me, it is very stable and I can fully trust it to do the job. Quality wise, there is still a small small degrading in quality when viewing TV through my HTPC compared to the direct TV connection.

    Which version of TV Server and MediaPortal you are using please?
    I tried many versions, none of them working more than 30 minutes.

    I am using Skystar2 for sat tv.

    :D

    I am using MP 0.2.3 with SVN of 2007-12-20 with TV Server of 2007-12-20.
    Your instability problems can maybe be related to drivers, hardware or codecs.
    I would suggest the following. Maybe one of the experts can help you.


    1. Start the MPTestTool2.exe in your MP installation directory
    2. Do Step 1 in the test tool
    3. Do Step 2 in the test tool
    4. Let it run until you experience the problems
    5. Close MP (end task - if it hangs)
    6. The testtool will automatically do Step 3
    7. Attach the generated zip file here and explain your steps AND the problem. And your fulls system specs.

    Fixed, I think. Certainly the vintage MP2 installer that I was using no longer installs the LAV filters. I can only assume that these were never part of the install package itself, but rather downloaded during the install, and that link no longer exists. Shame that the installer doesn't indicate this. Last time when I installed the...
