    Hello and welcome! :)

    Can you please confirm: are you attempting to install MediaPortal 1 or MediaPortal 2?

    Okay.

    I should say: Windows 10 definitely does support DirectX 9.

    I recommend you try the latest update snapshot:
    https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/mediaportal-2-sr15-update-1-snapshot-2015-08-01.131488/

    It should install the required dependencies for you.

    If you still have problems, you can always try MP1. MP2 and MP1 both have their strengths and weaknesses. In general MP1 is the more mature product where MP2 is still a bit of a work in progress. You may find that MP1 suits you better.

    I did a check of MP 1.36 x64 on Win11 and I can confirm, that the TV server correctly detects running MediaPortal.exe process.

    Ok, thanks much. I will look into the instructions above. For the moment, I turned off the "Automatic channel logo update" in Settings (which somehow I had missed, I think because it wasn't an option previously), and the deleted everything in the Flat-default folder and populated it with my own logos. Works, so far.

    Can anyone tell me the step-by-step procedure for bringing up a second channel in pip mode? I can only do it sometimes, after many tries, and it’s not clear what I am doing that makes it work on those occasions when it does. Cannot find guidance on the site. Thanks, N. Again, if anyone knows how to do this, would be much...

    Isn't there anyone who needs the series episode listings in the EPG? Perhaps someone could move this post to the English forum.
