So, Using Aeon Wide 1.3, and MP 1.0.

On both of my systems, MP will not turn off the monitor, it just puts on a black screen, even though Windows is set to turn off the screen. Am I missing a setting somewhere?

MP1 MP2 MP2 - V2.3 Difference between using specific audio renderer versus "Default WaveOut Device"? DE

Sorry, it's my fault -- I did not notice that you are using MP2. :( MP1 has a separate configuration utility, similar to "TV Server Config". I have tried MP2 only a couple of times, and have never used it seriously. I don't know what MP2 supports with regard to adjusting audio delay, but I do know that all of the adjustments of...

MP1 MP2 Not getting past startup DE

you are right.. I spotted why it's not working. For what ever reason, the 3x recently added / watched for TV series, etc was killing it.. I've removed it for now and it's started working again. I'll have to dig a little deeper as to why it's happened all of a sudden.

MP1 MP2 RTSP - test with VLC on same box, correct syntax? DE

I meant use MP client to try to spot how it's requesting streams for specific channels and then try to do the same with VLC. TV Server development looks dead so I'm afraid you're going to have to figure that out by yourself if it's even possible.
