[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1008139, member: 82144"] Hello and welcome tannistoo :) I'll try and answer the first question... This is almost certainly a codec thing. I recommend you: 1. Use the MP Extension Installer (MPEI) - link on your desktop - to install the LAV codecs. 2. In your configuration here: [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/MediaPortal_Configuration/9_Codecs_and_Renderer/1_TV_Codecs[/url] ...set all options except audio renderer to LAV. Set audio renderer to default directsound. MP doesn't change the EPG, so I guess this reflects the accuracy of the EPG source you're currently using. I've heard mixed feedback about Aussie over-the-air EPG, so if that is what you have you might want to look at alternatives. Try searching the forums for threads from other Aussies like this: [url]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/re-launch-of-mp-epg-downloader.70198/[/url] [url]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/what-is-the-best-fta-epg-for-oz.112470/#post-963103[/url] You could also try this: [url]http://support.icetv.com.au/home[/url] The biggest controllable factor in channel change time is the zap timeout setting: [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/MediaPortal_Configuration/13_GUI/6_On-Screen_Display_*[/url] ([B]Make sure to enable viewing of advanced settings[/B] - see the top right corner of MP configuration.) So, try entering the channel number with leading zeroes (ie. 001) or reduce the zap timeout. The other thing you can investigate is the HDD you're using for timeshifting. Ideally it should be a separate drive from the one that contains your operating system. Some people use an SSD or RAM drive. mm [/QUOTE]
