I have just setup a new HTPC with twin Haupauge tuners and running Vista Media centre.

I'm a bit disapointed that I can't use PIP feature in Vista MC.

Does MediaPortal have the PIP feature?

    No, sadly it doesn't. Many people have asked for it but there is only so much the Developers can do with their limited time.
    AFAIK, MythTV is the only true HTPC software that can do PIP.
    So if it is essential for you, I guess you have 2 choices, join the Devs and code PIP for us (please) or run MythTV...

    BTW. Welcome to Mediaportal :)

    Cheers,

    I've used MythTV for ages. I had picture in picture working too.

    I went, "oooooooh, that's really cool." and never used it again.

    Well, the log doesn't show any problems. I can see correctly tuned channels in the log. It seems to me that the tuner works fine. Can you copy the created ts file(located in your timeshift folder) somewhere else while in channel preview and try to play it in VLC or MPC-HC? PS: You can also try to make short record

    It's getting weirder..... If I remove all the IP cards in the TVServer setup and then add them back I can scan the M3u and tune the stations but if I rescan it on the same card it just keeps updating the 1 channel. My brain is melting.........
