[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1202831, member: 82144"] Hello and welcome to the forum :) Okay. At a high level MediaPortal 1 comes with two parts: [LIST=1] [*]MediaPortal - the client/front-end program for watching videos, listening to music etc. [*]TV Server - a second program that provides TV and radio support to the MediaPortal client (ie. part 1). [/LIST] Each part has it's own configuration tool/program: MediaPortal Configuration, and TV Server Configuration. The TV Server part is the part that has to see your HDHomeRun. If you don't have the TV Server part installed, you're up a creek without a paddle... ;) No, this is not relevant. Both wireless and wired setups can work, as long as you have the all-important TV Server. This suggests you have part 1 without part 2... or in other words, that you you don't have TV Server installed. What you're describing here is MediaPortal Configuration. This is not the right place to be looking for and/or configuring an HDHomeRun. As above. The host name field in the TV/radio section of MediaPortal Configuration is not for configuring the name/address of your HDHomeRun. Rather, it's for configuring the name/address of the computer on which[I] [/I]TV Server is installed. You should be doing a single-seat installation. That's an installation where MediaPortal and TV Server are installed together on the computer. Sure. :) [LIST=1] [*]Uninstall MediaPortal. Make sure you do a "full product cleanup". [*]Install MediaPortal again. During installation select the following options ([URL='http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/1_Getting_Started/12_Installing_MediaPortal/1_Installer_(Deploy_Tool)/0_Select_Options']as described in our manual[/URL]): [LIST=1] [*]Language = choose whichever you prefer; presumably "English (United States)". [*]"Start with the installation now". [*]"Yes - I will use MediaPortal to watch TV". [*]"Perform a One Click installation". [/LIST] [/LIST] If you choose the correct options as specified above, the installer will install TV Server. After the installation finishes, you should be able to find TV Server Configuration (normally there's a link on the Windows Desktop and in the start menu). Within TV Server Configuration you should see your HDHomeRun listed under "TV Servers" -> (your computer name). Kind regards, mm [/QUOTE]
