[QUOTE="Grahamgo, post: 473145, member: 91783"] I settled on XP Pro and decided next step is Windows 7 (sometime!). I originally tried the guide "mediaportal codec guide v.2.pdf" which seems close to your guide except for the H.264, theirs is FFdshow, your is MPC. But I have just tried "SAF v3.47 (Standalone filters for MediaPortal) - DXVA ready (MPEG2, H.264 and VC-1)" perhaps you can comment? It's a bit confusing as to what is best. I am currently using StreamedMP, biased because of the torrent plugin, but find I cant read the torrent list and the EPG for that matter from across the room, so might go for something simpler. The StreamedMP EPG "record now" and "advanced recording types" sequence are ambiguous, Blue3 is much simpler to use. Sorry - this is off subject here. I think the MP-TV series Configuration needs an example input file example for others like me, doing this for the first time. I am trying to make that work now. Edit found it :- [url]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/my-tvseries-162/expressions-rules-requests-21978/#post142955[/url] Great guide though. It would have saved me days of trial and error.....
