[QUOTE="cewillis, post: 888985, member: 106719"] mm, 1) the simple things - You caught me -- I had indexing enabled (like on the 1.1.0.0 partition). I turned it off, and it didn't make any difference. 2 qam tunings at the same time still mess up. I tried MCE and HID both enabled, KIP disabled. Right works, but media controls don't. Enable KIP, Right doesn't work, media controls do. Is there a FINAL, FINAL mapping file somewhere, after all versions of mapping have been 'applied'? Or is there some way to DISABLE changing the zoom setting in MP? I turned off Dynamic Refresh (same as 1.1.0.0 partition). Still get the 2 second blank screen when exiting any playback. Yes, I can add to Keys and Sounds. Don't know what happened yesterday. (and don't know if adding will affect anything) 2) a review and opinion - I have 2 disk partitions using exactly the same hardware, except for the partioning. Specifically, the identical, same tuner in each. I use the 1.1.0.0 partition every day for routine activities - recording and playback, and it still works fine. I use the other partition to experiment with a 1.2.3 install, but no real 'work', yet. So it seems to me that there is no point in trying to identify a tuner hardware problem. But I can certainly believe that the exact same driver could (shouldn't, but could) behave differently in different installs depending on what else is installed, or even the order of installs. For instance, I have still have Hauppauge WinTV installed in the 1.1.0.0 partition from when we were trying to figure out why the tuner wasn't working (solved when my provider moved some qam channels out of the FM band). 3) debugging anyway, maybe I think I did this, and it didn't make any difference. But, now I'm not sure what was suppose to happen. The extract created a sub directory in \Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server. Is that what you wanted? I wasn't using TV service manual control to test. I was doing Record now in MP to start one recording, then another. Does the latter accomplish the test you wanted? 4) education You are the expert, and I still don't understand something. What I think I know is that channels, not frequencies, are mapped to tuners in TV service configuration. Right so far? Sounds to me like you are saying that there is a test somewhere, such that if a new channel tuning request specifies the same frequency as is already being tuned, a new tuner is not allocated. Is that right? If so, can't we test that? I should be able to tune 3 (or more) channels at the same time, even though I only have 2 tuners. That doesn't work for me: if I start recordings on the two channels you said were on the same frequency, all other channels are then shown as unavailable. (this on 1.1.0.0 since that can record 2 qam channels at once with no problem) So, where am I going wrong? Sorry to be dense. Not deliberately trying to waste your time ---.
