[QUOTE="dcwp, post: 417711, member: 25562"] Hi Jezston, Glad you're finding your way through the setup. The first time can be a bit daunting, but it is totally worth it, and if you can maintain this level of patience, you'll find lots of help here. I'll address your questions out of order. 2) In the main configuration window, select the "remote" tab and make sure the MCE remote is checked. The great thing about this remote with MP is that there is basically no other configuration that *should* be required. If you still have trouble with it after checking that box, let us know. 1) Program info varies widely by location, provider, etc. What you want to search for on the forum is EPG (Electronic Program Guide). I think in the UK you can actually use the built-in MP EPG or WebEPG, but I don't know since we aren't so lucky stateside. In my experience, setting up the EPG is one of the more difficult tasks so I'll advise an extra dose of patience with that. Lastly, depending on your problem, it sometimes helps to have extra information from you including system specs, which can be entered in UserCP (for an example of how they will appear, click the "My System" link under my avatar). It is also often helpful to have logs when trying to narrow down a problem. Here's a link that can help with that if you need it: [url=https://www.team-mediaportal.com/manual/Forum/How_to_post_logs]Forum/How_to_post_logs - MediaPortal Manual Documentation[/url] Good luck and welcome! Edit: I just saw that you posted while I was typing. Glad you figured all this out without me! [/QUOTE]
