[QUOTE="igalan, post: 134501, member: 13477"] This weekend I tried with the ffdshow version linked above, and I had nothing but trouble. Once ffdshow was installed with the default audio codecs enabled (and no video codec) TV stopped working (black screen with no audio). The worst was that I had no way to get it back working except system restore, uninstall MediaPortal, reinstall and setup again :( . Because this was too strange I tried a second time, but with the same results. After a few more hours I gave up, I couldn't find what was breaking TV, and comparing the installation with working backups wasn't conclusive. At this point I strongly recommend not installing ffdshow unless you're prepared to spend many hourse and have a full disk image, just in case. I updated my Ghost images so if something else breaks, at least I have a working image and I won't loose much time to get everuthing working. I don't have audio on audio streams 2 and 3 for TV3, and no audio on 3/24, yet :( [/QUOTE]
