[QUOTE="BillyGates, post: 84341, member: 25795"] I'm a newbie that is currently 'evaluating' MP vs. MCE. :) My 2 big problems getting it working were: 1. The CaptureCardDefinitions for my popular Win TV PVR USB2 had to be updated to recognize the tuner... (wasn't easy to find the rigth thread on the forums... :) ... I've updated the Wiki) [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/Supported_TVCard_Analog_Hardware_Encoding/HauppaugeWinTVPVRUSB2[/url] 2. The EPG setup was not obvious (as a US user), and Zap2It Plugin not mentioned anywhere on the Wiki/Manual... (I again updated the Wiki) [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/UserGuides/Country_based_EPG[/url] There's -lots- of documentation on WebEPG and XMLTV that make this confusing for US users, I think the Zap2It plugin works great and needs to get more 'exposure'. So for me, having better documentation on the Wiki would have helped. An auto-update feature to get the latest CaptureCardDefinitions file and other similar files would be useful. Thanks for listening, and keep up the great work! :) [/QUOTE]
