I looked around and couldn't find anything on this. I was looking at MythTV also and even though it was open source you had to buy a subscription to download tv/program info. Is this the same way?
Is there a subscription fee (1 Viewer)

Hi, and welcome to the forums, oltranzista.
I believe you oltranzista is talking about EPG subscriptions. For most people/countries there are free alternatives, but not sure about the US. I know that there has been some problems getting EPG for U.S. after a popular EPG service stopped (can't remember the name).
Try searching or browsing the EPG part of the forum.

Zap2it used to give free listings but stopped doing so last September because of abuse. Right now I'm using Schedules Direct for my listings, but it's not free. It only costs $20 a year, though. There's also a couple of other alternatives like CT TV Listings that does offer a limited free listings plan. Both of these have plugins for MediaPortal.

you are right.. I spotted why it's not working. For what ever reason, the 3x recently added / watched for TV series, etc was killing it.. I've removed it for now and it's started working again. I'll have to dig a little deeper as to why it's happened all of a sudden.

Fixed, I think.
Certainly the vintage MP2 installer that I was using no longer installs the LAV filters. I can only assume that these were never part of the install package itself, but rather downloaded during the install, and that link no longer exists. Shame that the installer doesn't indicate this.
