[QUOTE="OMA, post: 74669, member: 24367"] Starting MP manually always works so it seems something loaded at startup is preventing MP from running with Windows. But the strange thing is that this started happening only a few days ago (MP started with Windows fine before then), and I didn't install anything, so I don't know what could be causing this. I already tried to disable the "start with Windows" checkbox and put MediaPortal in the startup folder instead, thinking it would load later, but I still get the same error. I even tried to use the Task Scheduler to make MP start with Windows, but again, I got that same "DirectX" message. I need MP to start automatically when Windows is started, because this machine is supposed to be controlled only by a remote control. I think I'll have to write a little script to load MP after a few seconds delay. What about the second issue I mentioned?. Programmed shows never get recorded. Manually hitting the "Record now" option works fine. So, what can I be doing wrong?. Thanks for your help! OMA [/QUOTE]
