[QUOTE="NekoGurrl, post: 45771, member: 19485"] Mostly features such as the ability to search then mark series for all new episodes (series pass); web based scheduling from another machine and context menu selection working without mouse in EPG. Also I use an external STB that I control right now through a serial cable, in Myth I just told it what port and all changing was done through the cable. In MP I have to edit each channel and set it to external, SVHS and set the channel. I've gone thought this 5 times for over 200 channels and it's getting a bit old. I have been looking at the format of the TV channel database to see if I can write something to make it easier to change all channels in one pass. I just ordered the MCE remote and am switching over to its blasters instead of the serial control since none of the newer STBâ€™s Iâ€™ve worked with use this method. Just doesn't seem to be as well polished as the rest of this great program, right now PVR Scheduler does fill in some of these vacancies, but as that software is unavailable to anyone without pay pall, it is a moot point. I also understand that 0.2.0.0 RC3 is still unreleased undocumented software so it may very well be features I am unaware of coming late to the table as I have. MP is the best HTPC software Iâ€™ve used thus far, and Iâ€™ll continue to work on finding a way to use it as a DVR as well. [/QUOTE]
