[QUOTE="dklong, post: 514517, member: 92186"] Folks I know about Shift-1 to display various info in MediaPortal but this seems to be focused on the display resolution etc. Is there a way to display info about the source media such as the resolution of the source TV signal (eg 720p, 1080i 576i) and/or the type of audio source (eg stereo, 5.1 Dolby etc)? Knowing when there was a proper 5.1 signal in the source would be fairly useful for example as a hint to turn on the amp :-) This seems to be a common feature in things like PowerDVD, PS3 and others. I've tried random Shift-? keys but to no avail! :-) I've also looked in the on-line manual (a bit radical really) but didn't see anything that looked like this. If there is a way to show this info I'd appreciate hearing about it. Regardless ... keep up the good work all those developers who contribute to MP.It is a great bit of software and has certainly changed the way I watch TV and media! Many Thanks :thx: [/QUOTE]
