[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1148778, member: 82144"] Great. :) Sure, but please realise that I provided the link simply so that you could see where the relevant setting is. I did [B]not [/B]expect you to read and understand the definition of PMT. I'm a reasonable person trying to help you, not an unreasonable expert trying to overwhelm you. ;) I'm not going to deny that I'm familiar with MediaPortal. That's just what naturally happens when you use anything for 5 years. As above: I'm simply trying to help you, and helping you does not require that you assimilate the knowledge that I have. Of course! I never claimed the wiki is perfect. On the contrary, I [I]know[/I] it's not. Reiterating what I said in my previous post: if you find that there are "large conceptual gaps" then you can help to point them out and fill them. Jargon comes with the territory. It's unavoidable.
