[QUOTE="jladwig, post: 1163739, member: 156358"] Sorry I didn't reply sooner was not available - 1. I am currently using S-Video. 2. Yes I am looking for a replacement to Windows Media Center - to be able to fully integrate the Dish setup into MediaPortal (all channels in the guide, with EPG, scheduling recordings, MediaPortal controlling the STB with a blaster). Your reply doesn't give much hope and suggest this isn't possible with my current setup. The import of the guide data did make some sense as the configuration in Windows Media Center asks for the type of input: S-Video, what provider you have: Dish TV then downloads the guide information. It does not require the setup of individual channels. When selecting a channel from the guide it would send the channel change to the blaster to the Dish TV STB and changes the channel. I am sure you understand how it works and do not mean to insult your intelligents. I am looking for a replacement for Windows Media Center to be able to upgrade to Windows 10 which does not support Windows Media Center anymore. The support for Windows 8.1 does not end until 2023 but would like to take advantage of the free update to Windows 10 before the offer ends. If there is nothing available then I may go with XBOX One and stream on my local network to the PC which is connected to my 62" big screen TV. Thank you very much for replying and if there is a possibility I would be extremely grateful for any assistants you could provide. [/QUOTE]
