[QUOTE="markosjal, post: 1289366, member: 168664"] I have spent the last few weeks with TVHeadend, TVMosaic and NextPVR on Mac, WIndows and Linux platforms where available. Only recently I came back to MediaPortal which I was perplexed by when I first tried it a couple weeks ago. I gave up and moved on to explore other solutions. Now I am back to MediaPortal and I have scanned with my older HDHomerun Dual tuner, then "mapped" the channels somewhere in the software . I have found a couple of guides it seems neither is complete, or they are too old. or I suppose it would be working. Loading a Kodi client I have no channels available. No idea what I am doing wrong nor which step I am not seeing. NOTHING seems intuitive in MediaPortal, and my first counter intuitive experience was making a change in the TV setup tool, clicking "OK", only to have it close then have to reload it. MediaPortal configuration is perhaps the LEAST intuitive and logical of the TV streaming solutions I have explored so far. It was so bad I almost gave up on it in the beginning. Now I need to see what it offers. I can't help but notice there is a lot of activity in the forums and that could be good or bad. It seems a lot of people are looking to get some basic functionality out of MediaPortal which seems to point back to the counter-intuitive configuration. My only goal is to get live TV on Kodi with some added IPTV live streaming sources. I would like to give MediaPortal a chance as it seems like a mature product. Media Portal has a lot to learn from TVMosaic Community Edition. with its easy and intuitive configurations. Problem with it is many streams just do not play right in TVMosaic. But then on the other hand I can not even get basic functionality from my HDHomerun in Media Portal Mark [/QUOTE]
