[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1162531, member: 82144"] That's unnecessary. You could have simply said "yes" for the "use TV" choice: [URL]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/1_Getting_Started/12_Installing_MediaPortal/1_Installer_%28Deploy_Tool%29/0_Select_Options#Use_TV[/URL] ...and then selected one click. Done. Simple as that. Yes, this was the wrong thing to do. The wiki (manual) doesn't tell you what to select, but it does tell you the consequences of selecting each option. You're expected to be able to make the right choice for your scenario/setup. If you're finding this way too hard then you should consider whether MediaPortal is right for you, because this part is considered easy. You could manually install your own database server (either SQL Server or MySQL), but based on what you've said I'm guessing you'd find a database server installer to be a nightmare. Therefore I do suggest you uninstall and reinstall again. [/QUOTE]
