I used Windows Media Center a while back with the MyMovies module, its ok, but the database management and the slow GUI turned me away, I started using Meedio, but the database management was difficult and i ended up having triplicates of movies in my collection, as well as the inability to configure remote controls for fast forwarding and rewinding, and I could never pull up movies details. Anyways... I really like the very simple and easy to use configuration of MediaPortal, but I am having several problems. In BOTH skins default and XFactor (i am using xfactor with all correct and installed plugins) when browsing or doing anything at all in any part of mediaportal, the app seems to pause or lockup for about 5-10 seconds then everything goes back to normal, however once I start a movie, the movies play just fine with no pauses. Keep in mind I have over 5,800 DvDs, not including blurays, and Tv Seasons, however I have never had a browsing problem in WMC or Meedio. ****In configuration I HAVE set the thumbnail to the lowest setting**** Another issue I have is that I have lots of TV shows, and TV seasons, and when I am browsing I see like 20 "Sopranoes" or 13 "Lost" covers one after another. My Weather is configured and pulls up my city, but in the GUI, it displays a thermometer, but no other info on the top right of my screen My logitech Dinovo mini is not able to move forward or back through menus, just arrows left and right, and enter work. How do I add more than IMDB as a databse to search for movies through? I have a lot of foreign films that need to search foreign databases, MyMovies for WMC allows you to search by country, is this possible with MediaPortal? I would really just prefer an expert to just remote in and dial me in, but input is always appreciated, and you can be as technical as you'd like :) thanks in advance:thx: [/QUOTE]
