The external HDD is normally recognized via a unique media ID from the harddisk, and should not get removed. So it sounds like the media ID is not properly read. In order to verify this, you have to switch MediaPortal into 'debug' mode and reproduce your problem-scenario, so that the log files capture what is going on/wrong.
Only then can it be fixed, and please remember to provide ALL logs, preferably via the easy to use MediaPortal Debug shortcut in your start-menu.
Hi.
I was probably being a bit fast and loose with my terminology. I meant "somewhere within the files that MP2 uses in its database".
Anyway, I found a way to do this which was far from automated but relatively low effort. I found what looked like all the images (CD covers, DVD covers, backgrounds etc all lumped together in...

I switched back to MePo 1 some time ago, and havent really used it that much.
But i wanted to watch some old movies stored as ISO file.
Virtuel Clone drive is installed, and it can mount the ISO file.
However when i try to select it from MePo i only get an error that i cannot mount it.

I'm running 2.5 with the WMC skin.
I have .mp4 files, along with the related .srt files in the same folder.
I can watch the movies just fine.
In past versions of MP, like 2.4x, I could press the More Info button on my remote twice, and on the second press, an option for showing/choosing the subtitles was listed. I'd select the...

Fixed, I think.
Certainly the vintage MP2 installer that I was using no longer installs the LAV filters. I can only assume that these were never part of the install package itself, but rather downloaded during the install, and that link no longer exists. Shame that the installer doesn't indicate this.
Last time when I installed the...

I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ?
MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback.
If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo.
I have...
