[QUOTE="Thornsdale, post: 284156, member: 79607"] I would like to replace Vista MC with MediaPortal but I have a few questions first. 1) The current MC records and TV to the local disk but picks up photos and music from another PC on the lan. I assume MediaPortal can do that? 2) I currently have two DVB-T cards but would like to soon add or swap in a DVB-S2 card for freesat. 2a) How many tuners does MediaPortal support? 2b) I am a bit confused between MediaPortal and TV-Server. The blurb says only TV-Server supports DVB-S2, so what do I need to install on my media PC (ie the one that will do the recording and is connected to the TV)? 3) Does MediaPortal support Blu-Ray should I decide to upgrade the DVD in my pc to Blu-Ray? 4) Does MedaiPortal output 1080P (for my 1080P Panasonic)? 5) Vista MC tends to lose frames whenever the PC is a bit busy recording another channel. Is MediaPortal better at handling this? I would really appreciate any advice you can give me on this. [/QUOTE]
