[QUOTE="BlueMax1916, post: 1176823, member: 30294"] I am using MP since 0.2.3. I think 1.10 was the most stable for me. 1.11, 1.12 and 1.13 updates were not so stable anymore. I have set up a fresh 1.13 install on a new hardware with Windows 10 and I now get the intermittent 'Timeshift could not be started'. Some satellite channels will not be found anymore during a scan. I have now two HTPC with MP and both have their problems with live TV. On a third PC (mediaserver) I installed MP2 but still the same problems with channels not found since it is the same TVE 3.0 engine. A separate dedicated satellite receiver connected on the same ports of the multiswitch device will find and tune all channels. Also those that are missing in MP. In fact 1.13 has broken some functionality of my MCE remotes regarding live TV. On the one HTPC the channel increase/decrease does not work (jumps a variable amount of channels up/down). No cure right now. On the other one (with the fresh 1.13 install) the mute button did not work anymore (installation of 1.14 Pre-Release cured the problem with the mute button). Also selecting the channel stored on position '8' kills live TV and MP freezes. A posting on the board did not get any reaction from the developers. It is a fresh install what could I do better? So, yes the live TV quality (for me) was better in previous releases. The woman acceptance factor for my wife has gone down the drain for the stability problems of MP > 1.10 such that I am contemplating to go back to a fresh install of MP 1.10 on both HTPC. When I have some time I want to have a look at Kodi 16 which I could even make portable according to [URL='http://portableapps.com']PortableApps[/URL] standards very easily. Maybe connect it to MP's TVE 3.0 to see if it is the MP client which gives troubles. Do not misunderstand me. MP is a very good product but the latest incarnations are giving me troubles after years of good stability and usage. I am looking forward to MP2 and I would use it productive if it was up to the functionality MP1 has with plugins plus more stability. Cheers Blue Max [/QUOTE]
