[QUOTE="Peroxide, post: 393417, member: 89805"] Hi guys I'm retrying Media Portal after initially giving it a look a couple of years ago when building my HTPC. I've recently bought a better TV so am looking to play Bluray and HDTV through my PC which VMC will not help me with. But when installing I get this message: [IMG]http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/6614/19326874.jpg[/IMG] Is this a common and fixable problem? I installed standard installation: Will Watch TV through Media Portal Will Not Watch HDTV (yet) Using the default TV server option The installer will install Media Portal regardless of this message, but will not install MS SQL Express 2005, it just continues to say installing for hours, and doesn't move on. The full text from the details box is: The reason I think this is a problem is that I need Media Portal to IR Blast my Set Top Box and I believe the IRBlasters need the TV Server. I'm using Windows Vista. Sorry if this hasn't been too clear. [/QUOTE]
