[QUOTE="dunkle, post: 22974, member: 15715"] Hi - first post so be gentle Just transferred from MCE to MEdia Portal as I am on the understanding taht MP will allow me to use TheaterTek and FFDShow to upsacle DVD and video playback to 720p Problem Is, is that I am a bit thick and unsure on what I am doing so if anyone could help I would be grateful (1) Using DVDDecrypter I have ripped around 70 movies across 4 Hard Drives. However when I ran the Setup Wizard its only found a handful of the movies on 2 of the 4 discs. How can I go about getting the rest added. (The movies have a folder each in video_ts format etc) (2) I then have a folder in which are various other folders for various .AVI files - one folder for HD clips etc another folder for trailers and another for home movies etc. In MCE each of these appeared seperatly under MyVideos and I could then choose each individual clip - How does ths work under Media Portal (3) TheaterTek and Upscaling. How do I make sure Media Portal uses Theatertek and that I get upscaled to 720p playback. Also how do I go about disabling the Theatertek splash screen. (4) Movie artwork - I think this is retrievable via IMDB but clueless how to do it Thats about it for now - but if anyone has any other suggestions how I can get upscaled 720p and best picture possible be grateful Whole thing needs to be driven by front end as its my other half who will be using it also so fully remote useable Thanks [/QUOTE]
