After getting all my blu-ray BD to MKV & DVD9/5, I started to look for a way to control all my media with the old remote wonders that I had from all the old ATI all in wonder cards. A friend of mine showed me his MEEDIO setup, I was impressed with all the icons and his mce remote, but he couldn't help me to set it up because he someone helped him to set it up and it's not users friendly at all. Someone on MEEDIO's forum mentioned about MEDIAPORTAL and there it was...:eek: in a few hours and a few days later, I got everything running.

    Hi there

    Thanks for the feedback. Some users will only give negative feedback and therefore I am quite sure the developers and rest of the team will appreciate your positive feedback.

    NJOY :D

    Good story. I came to MP after a stint with Meedio (and the separate Yahoo Media Center when they were separate) and GotAllMedia. Just like you somebody on another form told me there was this other program that had pretty good functionality. Once I switched I remember thinking "why would anybody who knows about MediaPortal keep using a different piece of software?"

    Welcome and enjoy your stay.

    Good thread this!

    It's not perfect (I'd give it a 9 out of 10) but I absolutely love MP. I am impressed by the team that made MP. I hope you guys realise how much I appreciate all the effort you have put into creating the best solution for nearly all media. The speed of development is excellent. Fast bugfixes, development of new featurs, etc... I have not seen any comercial project or product that has such a good team behind it. Please accept a digital pat on the back!

    Finally the "accepted by girlfriend" factor is VERY important. My girlfriend and I use oure MP system daily for TV, movies, photos and our music collection.

    I'm looking forward to version 1.01 and hope it is released soon!

    :D

    Hey Ltooz,

    I just watched your YouTube videos and I notice that you exit MediaPortal to launch live TV in TotalMedia. I'm curious about why you do that? Do you find that TotalMedia has advantages over the MP TV engine? Faster zapping maybe?

    Also, it looks like you have two PCs running MP. Is it a client and server setup? NAS and full builds on each?

    Just curious. Looks like a nice setup.

    Hello,
    My KWORLD HDTV plus card is not supported. I'll look into the TV part of MEDIAPORTAL. Actually, I use OTA HDTV to watch CSI and other good shows, I use the card to record in HD and play later when I don't have time. It's not a must have for me right now, but others are.
    Mediaportal is a great software that has great plug-ins and skins for anyone. The only problem with all the new software without thousands of engineers like MS or other big companies is that it's not well documented... NO ISO10000:D . Anyhow, it's up to the users to help each others and spread the words. I'm finishing up the write up for basic MEDIAPORTAL SETUP

    Yes, I do have NAS, we have 2 40" LCD HDTV and 2 HTPC, wireless network with N300. Sharing files and playing files. But for now, since the Hard drives are so inexpensive, 1TB for under $100.00, I throw 1 for each HTPC. Wireless even with 300N still cause some trouble of streaming big files like 5-8GB MKV movies between the upstairs/downstairs. Before with 4.2GB DVD movies, it was a breeze.

    Thanks for the comments on my setup... They're actually very inexpensive and pretty potent:)

    Cheers and GO GO MEDIAPORTAL:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
