Reading my own posts I realise that a step to step guide might be appropriate;<\/p>\n

– Install MediaPortal 1.0 (RC3 is the most recent at the time of writing)<\/p>\n

If you want to use a shared card, you need this:<\/p>\n

– Install MDAPI – HomePage here<\/a> – File here<\/a><\/p>\n

– Install WinCSC – File here
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

If you want to be able to access the machine via web<\/p>\n

– Install MP WebInterface – Homepage here<\/a> – File here<\/a><\/p>\n

Special credits must go to Heerford – a genuine DVB hero! he provides for example the Electronic program Guice (EPG) that I am soon to get running \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

– Install EPG Service – Homepage<\/a> – File here<\/a><\/p>\n
