hi,

just to confirm, the mediaportal video and audio will be shown to tv via hdmi right? Also, since mediaportal is running on an existing os ie winxp, wont winxp/other apps also be shown at the tv?

thx

    Adding the TV as a second display and extend the desktop to the tv. You can run MediaPortal on the TV
    Other applications will be displayed on the primary display, unless you move it the the TV.
    In MediaPortal you can select witch audio-device MP should be using when playing music,tv etc.. To separate MP-sound from normal windows sound you need 2 audio-devices (one on hdmi for MP)

    Hi, it looks like the Client's server connection settings got corrupted somehow and were reset, hopefully this is an easy fix. Open MP2-Client, navigate to Settings->General->Connectivity->Home server. In the menu on the left there may be an option Detach from home server, if there is click it and acknowledge the dialog that pops up...
