When I do a right click on "MediaPortalSetup_1.12.0_Final.exe" I get the following options: Open, Cut, Copy, Delete, and Properties. I do not get Run as Administrator. What am I doing wrong?

Did you extract the file first?

Edit:
Never mind, looks like you did.
Just to be sure, you have now 2 files, the zipped one and the unzipped one, right?

    Ldarm44, it would be nice if you gave more details about your system. What OS are you using, are you running from within a limited account? Please consider filling in details about your system specifications in your MP user profile and set them to visible.

    Regarding the installation try to run from an admin account.

    When I double click the zip, it looks like I get the exe but it's still not extracted. Right clicking the exe shows exactly what he describes.
    He has to extract it first.

    So it sounds like the built in Windows unzip function is being used, and the installer (the EXE file!) may be marked as "from the internet" too.
    After unzipping: right click -> properties -> unblock.

    Give the chap/lady a break - clearly new to whole concept and allow for timezone and personal needs here - not everyone is 24x7x365 like mm1352000 [and how in the name of Satan's bottom you manage that is beyond me, if I wore a hat to hide the criminal bald spot that's snuck on me in past 30yrs , I'd doff it to you and then some(y)

    ldarms44 - please, if you've not done it, fill in [or ask for pointer too] your system details - it really does help.

    TTFN - JCMP.

    Does anyone else have problem with long (several hours) pauses of TV broadcasts? If I pause and forget, I can still resume TV the next day, but if I try to change channel or stop, MP freezes. Only way to fix is to restart both MP and TV Service. Sometimes I need to restart PC It seems that TVServer cannot proprtly handle large...

    The only changes I see are: Updated Marcel Groothuis version of the plugin to now support Media Portal 2.5 I can't say anything about the functionality of this plugin, I don't use TV Part, but if there are any changes that can be simply transferred, then I can try. But I can't give any guarantees.
