Mp is installed, but questions... (1 Viewer)

Howdy all

I now have a running MP system however I have a few questions. I am coming from a MythTV machine on Fedora Core 4 Linux so some of this Windows stuff is a bit confusing. My version is the latest 2.0.0 with the most recent stable patch .4 I think.

Firstly, I have 3 DVB-T cards in the machine. They seem to be all working and I can record 3 programs at once, even though I did not put in the dvbfix. I did make a slipstreamed version of XP with a whole bunch of updates and SP2 so it must have been already included.

Anyway, I was just wondering what this GraphEdit thingie is I keep reading about and do I need to do anything with it? My 3 cards are: Compro DVB-T300, KWorld DVB-T220 and a DNTV Live! Pro.

I also tried to add a new skin but MP won't show it as available. It is the RealMP skin and I copied it to the skins directory under Mediaportal. What did I do wrong?

How do I delete a recording manually? Can't seem to find that one....

Ok, that it for now I think, but I am sure to have a few more as I get used to MP...

Cheers

you do not need if cards working.

if all the files are in a folder named RealMP then should show as a choice, make sure there is not a folder within a folder.

How do I delete a recording manually

well on my MCE remote i would highlight file, Press i (more) scroll down to option delete and press ok. keyboard highlight and delete.

Thanks for that.

Still problems with the skin. I checked and the folder is under Skins, along with MCE, BlueTwo etc but will not show. The directory contains 2 sub dirs - fonts & Media along with a whole bunch of xml files. MP will *not* show it in either the config app or the main app.

there are a couple of XML files that are needed for the settings. I'm at work and can't remember these at the moment, but maybe you are missing a few XML's. Can you download the files again, just in case?

Ahhh, OK. I'll download again and see what happens. I grabbed the original file from here so hopefully it contains everything that is needed.

Bingo! Seems the original RealMP download stopped short but the .rar file could still be opened. Downloaded again and it was 2Mb bigger. Loaded up fine....although I prefer BlueTwo at this point. Still, the exercise gave me some knowledge which can only be a good thing
