I have been using MP for a couple of years now, but I just got a Hauppauge HVR-2250 as my first look into actually have cable TV with it as well as movies.
I have searched the Wiki and this Forum for answers, but still have many questions on how to set the TV portion up.
First some facts:
MP 1.1.1 single seat fresh install, Win7 32, Hauppauge HVR-2250, E8400 CPU, 3gb ram, 320 GB HD. US Comcast cable.
I have successfully added both analog and digital channels and can watch them all.
I can delete channels I don't want easily enough. Video preview does not work in the TV server setup, audio only.
Now for some of my questions, although I am sure I will have many more as I go along.
1. How do I order the channels the way I want them to go using the up and down channel?
2. I can't figure out how to get the tvguide information for live TV. Not the plugins for recording. I will get to those later.
3. Are there tips to speed up channel changing?
4. How do I add information for channels so that I may have them get information for the tvguide information?
5. I think time shifting maybe causing some of my delays. Is there a way to shut it off completely? I have already reduced the numbers as low as they will go.
6. Is there a more complete guide then what is in the current Wiki?
7. I have read about a time offset in several threads, but I don't know what that is or if I need it. I suspect I would need some information for the correct tvguide info to be retrieved.
Thanks,
Mark
