\"\"After upgrading to Media Portal 1.2.3 to 1.3.0 beta, I ran into problems on two different machines. Key issue was the related to the TV server, and the channels but it might be unfair as I run Acamd and MDAPI, which isn’t officially supported, so I’m not blaming anyone. My brother also ran into problems – suddenly Media Portal didn’t recognise any of the movies and nothing would play. We all understand the WAF (See\u00a0WAF<\/a>\u00a0– option 3)of that.<\/p>\n

So, if all fails, and you need to uninstall, removing all databases, this is a checklist of the steps needed to get back to a status that you want (please mind – this is from the top of my head so I might miss relevant parts):<\/p>\n

* Uninstall option 3, that totally removes ALL the stuff.<\/p>\n

* Install 1.3.0 beta<\/p>\n

In configuration:<\/p>\n

* Enter path to pictures (generate thumbnails)<\/p>\n

* Enter path to music (update database)<\/p>\n

* Enter path to films and update database (not really needed if you run Moving Pictures)<\/p>\n

In TV server configuration:<\/p>\n

* Set up the server and scan for the channels where you live<\/p>\n

* Enable the plugin WebEPG<\/p>\n

* I disable the channels for the hearing impaired and channels variants from neighbouring regions, so SVT1 ABS, and not the other SVT1 I get in my list.<\/p>\n

* Configure the WebEPG but mapping a source for all the channels you want. I use 14 days and set the scheduler to a few times every week in the middle of the night.<\/p>\n

In the extension manager:<\/p>\n

* LAV filters are a MUST<\/p>\n

* Local TV icons is nice. I have an option for Sweden.<\/p>\n

* Moving Pictures is a MUST. There is no public Moving Pictures – the beta is here<\/a>. 1.4.2 works well.<\/p>\n

* Subcentral is also a must. Also not in the official extensionlist so fetch it here<\/a>.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

* TV series is also a must. I believe this is available in the extension manager. If not, then fetch it here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

* I typically install the Weather plugin as well.<\/p>\n

* I typically install Trakt as well.<\/p>\n

After this you need to go into configuration again<\/p>\n

* Select Titan updater and let it update (can be done from within Media Portal as well).<\/p>\n

* Select Moving Pictures, and configure it.<\/p>\n

Now run an enjoy. The Titan skin is amazingly nice in 1920*1080. I was mighty pleased with Avalon back in 1.2.x, but this is a serious improvement.<\/p>\n

Best of luck!<\/p>\n
