[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1129018, member: 82144"] Well sure, from a technical perspective the hardware [I]is [/I]complex. It [I]would[/I] be relatively expensive and time consuming to develop such a product and the associated drivers for any platform (Linux, Windows, Android...whatever)... but this is true for a *lot* of hardware. The Colossus and HD-PVR are by no means special in that regard. Also, just because that is true (ie. hardware and drivers are complex and expensive) does not mean that the product would be difficult to get working from an end-user/consumer perspective. In relation to drivers... You said: Well, MP, Kodi, WMC and any other software you install is using the same hardware [I]with the same drivers[/I]. If there were problems with the hardware, drivers... or anything else directly related to the Colossus... then you wouldn't have had it working perfectly in any software. In other words I'm saying that your test results prove that there is nothing wrong with the Colossus hardware or driver. The fact that Kodi and MP show slow video and/or don't have audio (...and whatever other problems you've seen...) are an indication that Kodi and MP are not configured fully/correctly. I'm genuinely sorry your box was borked. We'll be here to help when you're ready to proceed. :) On that note, if/when you run into problems again, please could you post log files so we can accurately and quickly diagnose exactly what is going on and tell you exactly what you have to do to fix it: [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/16_Support/3_Forums/2_Log_Files[/url] We can help you with MediaPortal and MediaPortal's TV Server. I'd probably recommend that questions about Kodi are asked on Kodi's forum. Best regards, mm [/QUOTE]
