You need a TV-Card only if you want to watch TV with MP :)

The card depends on what kind of TV technologies are available where you live : DVB-S, DVB-S2, Analog, DVB-T, DVB-C, etc....

Last time when I installed the...

I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...
