[QUOTE="mike_b, post: 768157, member: 114444"] Thanks Ray. I sent hoborgs a private message to get the unlock key. I'm not exactly sure how the unlock key is used, but I'm sure it will become apparent as I move along. Your configuration guide looks great Steve. I will certainly reference it when I begin installing and configuring MediaPortal. I think I'll wait a couple days before I do anything. The HVR-1250 tuner card will be here then. If I'm happy with MediaPortal I will take the HVR-2250 tuner out of my SageTV computer and use it in the MediaPortal computer. mm, thank you for the detailed explanations. I've never had a good understanding of codecs. Your explanation was very helpful. In the SageTV world I used the HD200 extender so there was no need to worry about codecs. I've been reading other posts in the forum about guide data and it sounds like the SchedulesDirect solution is the easiest to get up and running. I've also been reading more of the wiki and I'm really impressed. It's a great resource. :thx: everyone! [/QUOTE]
