[QUOTE="pantner, post: 474317, member: 95738"] Ok, looking to install Media Portal onto a machine at work...the machine currently runs TV Scheduler Pro but they would like to use the same program to record Foxtel and would also like a guide to schedule it all... The machine has 2xDVICO DVB-T Tuners (not sure the expect model...not dual, not hybrid..maybe the Lite or the Plus?) and a Haaupage PVR-150. Hoping to use the 150 to record the Foxtel. Apparently this came with a IR Blaster which i am in the process of trying to find. I think i've also found a program on these forums which will do FTA TV + Foxtel guide...just need to look into that a bit more... This machine will be used purely for recording, we have a ClickView server which we upload the recorded shows to and edit them. So, firstly, do you think it will work? (especially the scheduling of Foxtel) i've never used Media Portal, but have 2 VMC machines at home... Secondly, what format does MP record to? MPG, AVI, DVRMS? any suggestions in regards to the setup of the system? am trying to keep it as simple as possible. One last thing, i remember reading on the site that MP does not support running as a Process...obvisouly this the official word...is there anything unoffical i can do? we run a domain environment and may end up having multible staff members using the computer which will log each other off and possible close a scheduled recording, etc. [/QUOTE]
