    Did you do a clean install?

    Not sure which date you are looking at but I am assuming this is the date added to database. If you wipe your music database and start again everything will get a new created date.

    modified and created dates of files in MP are not used in music database. The date field is the time at which a new track gets added to the database.

    Can you confim which view it is where the dates are wrong (a screenshot might help)

    We don't do any writing to files.
    So i'm 100% sure that it wasn't MP who changed the date of your folders.

    I guess with "folders" you mean the physical directory on your HD. Right?

    In the music view options i'v got the view by "shares" and sorted by date not date added. the shares are on my main server. On the main server the modifed dates are fine in the windows its just on the MP client its all got the same date which is 23/1/2010 for some reason.

    I don't organise my media in the way that you do, so I don't know whether MediaPortal provides the capability that you want. All that I can suggest is that you read this page in the MP Wiki and experiment to see if it will merge the separate folders to give you a unified view of the media. -- from CyberSimian in the UK

    Yes, unfortunately, this would need a code change to support it. Next time I'm doing something on the plugin I'll try and remember to add support for this sort order.

    I've setup my HDHomeRun in MP1 as (4) IPTV cards rather than Atsc. I can see the (4) Atsc cards, but just have them disabled. I did it this way so I didn't have to edit the channel names every time tested a new TV-server install. Anyway, it works. I don't know if this would get you past the BDA driver issue. I'll provide more...
