[QUOTE="matbor, post: 44578, member: 19374"] Hi all, new to MediaPortal, I have always had a TIVO Series One (As I'm based in Aus, Goggle OzTivo if u want too know more), awesome machine, easy to use, but I want a bit more functionality, so I have a few questions regarding MediaPortal and hardware setup etc, the AUSSIE guys might need to help me on this ;) 1. Does mediaportal allow you to watch LiveTV ? and does it cache it so u can fast-forward and review shows !! If it doesn't any time line !!! 2. I want two capture cards, the first card to record either from the Foxtel STB (The digital one) or FTA (Doesn't worry me if it is in digital or not). The other card I want too watch FTA on or to record the FTA channel if the other card is recording something else, obviously I can only record one foxtel channel at a time as I only have one foxtel STB at the moment :) 3. Was thinking that I might put my mediaportal machine and foxtel STB in another room and have my XBox as the frontend, I assume that the Xbox (with modchip and XBMC already loaded) will only play recorded shows and also only allow u to set recordings ? So no livetv on the Xbox !!! 4. Does mediaportal allow u to have season passes on certain shows, i.e u set it to record anything that starts with "Supernatural" ?? 5. Does mediaportal have anything like tivo's ability to predict what you might like to watch and record it if u aren't using the system ?? 6. How does mediaportal change the channel on the foxtel STB, what program / hardware do u need to use to do this ?? 7. What is the limit on the number of capture/turner cards ?? I assume it is just the number of PCI slots !! Thanks Matt. [/QUOTE]
