Is there a way to get my PC remote to ONLY interact with mediaportal? the remote only works on the active application at the time which is an issue for me.

    there is option to keep mediaportal always on top, (under MP Config->general settings if i remember correctly) this will ensure MP is always the active application.

    I am running a Xubuntu machine as a server with all my movies and series on it, I run a VirtualBox VM with Windows 10 installed on the virtual machine and MP1 client installed on that. MP runs fine on the VM but I no longer have a tv tuner to test if passthrough is possible. I don't think it would work anyway.

I have never noticed the problem that you have described, but I also use the EVR renderer, and not the Madvr renderer. So...

    I compliment you on the thoroughness of your investigations. (y) Unfortunately, I don't have any ideas what the problem might be. :( Perhaps someone else will post with some suggestions. :unsure: -- from CyberSimian in the UK

    O Frabjous Joy! That seems to have done the trick. Thank you so much for your help and advice, CyberSimian. I hadn't thought of deleting the various folders, but I'll bear that in mind for any future disasters. Now I can record King & Conqueror on Sunday! Cheers Ralph
