Hi.

I made a fresh install .15 on a fresh Seven SP1.
Sound works fine on windows and VLC.

But no sound within MP, neither playing music nor video.

Any help ?

    Check out the Windows volume mixer in tray. Maybe MP is muted or its sound set down to zero.

    "Mute" can take place at two levels: MediaPortal itself and at Windows level in the volume mixer. If MP itself is muted then you should see an icon (skin-dependent) on the MP screen. Volume changes should be reflected on the OSD. Unfortunately there is no (simple) way to check if the mixer signal is muted. Notwithstanding, once set it should not change anymore.

    Hi This is a general question about OnX. I have been using the TvWishList plugin for a while and have recently updated (update install) from MP 1.36 x86 to 1.37 x86 and found there seemed to be no Onx menu in the TV guide. I then configured the onx.presets.xml file like I would normally do with updates or fresh installs, but still...

    I noticed there's an updated Visual C++ Runtime (14.50.35710), maybe try to reinstall the runtimes? That's what fixed the issue when I tried 1.38.1

    So, you're power cycling the TV, but not putting the PC to sleep ? In General => Startup/Resume settings, try checking "Ignore Windows resolution/size changes" In Codecs and Render, try selecting the specific audio device rather than "Default DirectSound device" Just ideas, no guarantee this will do anything. If this doesn't work, I...

    Ok, thanks much. I will look into the instructions above. For the moment, I turned off the "Automatic channel logo update" in Settings (which somehow I had missed, I think because it wasn't an option previously), and the deleted everything in the Flat-default folder and populated it with my own logos. Works, so far.

    There has been some jigger-pokery going on with the Windows volume OSD in newer MP-1 versions to get it and the MP volume OSD to display as per the options in MP Config. The behaviour you are seeing will be fixed in the next release, the Windows volume OSD will appear very briefly on MP exit on the desktop but fades away completely...
