[QUOTE="WouterC, post: 96928, member: 20758"] Hi all, I'm now running mythtv, but I have some problems due to driver issues and I'm thinking of switching to Mediaportal. I have some questions that I would like to be answered before I spent a few days installing and configuring windows and MP and to see at the end that it's missing some functionality.

Is she at home, she watches it on tv, but it's recorded anyway. Otherwise she can watch it later. But some series I would like to keep all episodes, so I need different settings on each tv show.
