[QUOTE="MrBOFH, post: 423209, member: 92019"] A complete newbie's installation My expereince with MP? About 2 hours. I found this software last night and installed it. Pretty pianless. So was configuring both the TV server and Media Portal. The only headache was getting the TV Guide to work. Even with the Wiki docs, I could not get WebEPG to do a thing. Did some more research and found ms2xml. Took a bit of tinkering but I got it to work grabbing data of Microsoft and the TV Guide is now up and running. I'm still scratching my head on how to make ms2xml work with titantv. If just brings up a nonsensical error and exits. On the whole I am pretty impressed with this package. Granted, the Win7 RC1 MCE setup took only 10 minutes but I don't believe that has all the expanadility that MediaPortal seems to have. Using mouse and keyboard does not seem the best way to operate either MC app so I have an MCE remote on order. I doubt very much I'll be switching to a Tivo or DVR any time soon. Unless the cable co gives me one for free. Thanks for an impressive package guys [/QUOTE]
