I've uninstalled everything pertaining to mp, and gave the beta a go. Don't like it because pretty much all of the plugins and the skin I like are not yet supported.

I'd be really surprised if that is the case. Have you seen -->this<--?

I have not yet tried the saf 5 or 6, which I assume is a codec pack?

Yes, SAF 5 is based on FFDShow and SAV 6 is based on the LAV splitter and includes the LAV audio codec as mentioned by Mew. I'd give SAF 6 a try.

Here is a guide that may help you 99% of the plugins are working just fine.. Check out MediaPortal Setup Guide

That should help get you through MP 1.2

getting the plugins installed and they all seem to be working fine, just as you guys said. i still have to tackle the netflix one, it gave me some issues in the stable version of mp. i have installed saf6 which looks to have kicked the issue of stereo only sound. i also went ahead and pm'e Hoborg for more info. i'm using the backdrop theme which is great........ slowly getting it setup how i want.

thanks again

Hi noremacyug

- i've notice a few of my movies have IMDB in front of the titles now...... why?

Asuming this is in Moving Pictures, I have noticed the same issue in the last couple of days. Looking in the Moving Pictures issues log (http://code.google.com/p/moving-pictures/issues/list?can=2&q=&sort=-id&colspec=ID Type Status Priority Stars Milestone Owner Summary) issue 1040 indicates that it is an issue with the IMDb scrapper which RoChess has submited a fix for (it looks like the fixed IMDb scaper xml file is attached to the issue report).

downloaded the fix for the imdb issue........ where in the crap do i put it? im looking in program data as program files didn't look too promising.
also downloaded infoservice. it came as a rar, not a self installer. where do i put the files after decompressing them?
