Hi,

Can someone recommend me a good USB Dual HD Tuner to work with Media Portal, I have media portal running my movies/tv etc but want to get the TV server running as well.

Thanks
Chris:cool:

    google works wonders u know

    i found 2 :
    Pinnacle PCTV Dual DVB-T Diversity USB HD TV Tuner Stick
    DigitalNow TinyTwin


    USB tuners can have poor design, poor manufacturing etc...can be flimsy and break in ur hands when u pick them up or plug/unplug...so if i could i would go with a PCI card..if not a PCI-e card to be honest

    any reception u may get from a usb tuner would be terrible at best and u always need it connected to a wall antenna

    I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...

    O Frabjous Joy! That seems to have done the trick. Thank you so much for your help and advice, CyberSimian. I hadn't thought of deleting the various folders, but I'll bear that in mind for any future disasters. Now I can record King & Conqueror on Sunday! Cheers Ralph

    Fixed, I think. Certainly the vintage MP2 installer that I was using no longer installs the LAV filters. I can only assume that these were never part of the install package itself, but rather downloaded during the install, and that link no longer exists. Shame that the installer doesn't indicate this. Last time when I installed the...

    I haven't tested it. I use MP1, but sometimes I try to help with MP2 :).
