[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 820142, member: 82144"] Hi again cornfused So from the logs it looks like TV Server is working nicely. I think the problem is codec selection. Codecs are a really important part of MediaPortal configuration as they are responsible for actually decoding and processing the video and audio that you see on the screen. Your settings for TV at present are: The Hauppauge entries that are selected there are totally not going to work for you. I would recommend the following: MPEG video: Microsoft DTV-DVD Video Decoder h.264/AVC video: Microsoft DTV-DVD Video Decoder MPEG/AC3 audio: MPC - MPA Decoder Filter AAC audio: MONOGRAM AAC Decoder Audio renderer: Default DirectSound Device So it is really only the MPEG video and audio codecs that are problematic. If you're going to be using the machine for playing MKVs or videos with Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby TruHD or DTS HD MA then you may want to consider installing the LAV codecs which are available from the MediaPortal Extension Installer.
