Hi,
yes. That is done often. See biggest discussion here:
https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/viewtopic.php?t=10905
Not much we can do.
Btw. its allowed by GPL to sell MP! So its nothing wrong with what they are doing. Whats wrong, is the way in which its been done. Most anoying thing is that they often use a wrong name like Windows Media Center Media Portal Edition.

Hi All
More free advertising.
Remember if they hit the setup icon, after install, all the links are there to bring them too this Homepage.
Everyone Welcome.

This could be keyword spamming and is banned on eBay. I auctioned my old Matrox P650, which is in fact similar to the Matrox Parhelia. I got done by eBay officials for keyword spamming by putting (Similar to Parhelia) in the title!
In eBay policies, recordable media containing recorded data are generally not allowed unless they are public domain such as MediaPortal. What is disgraceful is that some sellers are charging rip-offs for something that is meant to be free! This is sick profiting, especially when they don't donate to MediaPortal!
I also hate it when Power Sellers put a sample of their positive feedback directly on their eBay listing to show their professionality. In my opionion, it's not and it's simply boasting and "hiding" all the negatives and neutrals the seller may have.

I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ?
MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback.
If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo.

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.
Last time when I installed the...
