How many TV-Cards can I use properly with MediaPortal?

Generally speaking as much as you can install into your PC. But there is a limitation caused by a bug in WindowsXP. With Windows XP you can only use 1 DVB-Card without issues.

You can still use multiple analog cards and one DVB-Card. But because of the bug in Windows XP you can't use more than one DVB-Card out of the box. This bug may be fixed with Service Pack 3 for WindowsXP.

The only exception is the Skystar2 which doesn't use a BDA-driver and is supported by MediaPortal. You can use one or two Skystar 2 TV-Cards along with one other DVB-TV-Card and multiple analog cards with WindowsXP. With "MCE Rollup 2" Microsoft updated the files "mpeg2data.ax" and "PsisDecd.

Dll" to fix this bug for Windows MCE 2005. Thats why you can use as many DVB-Cards as you can install into your PC with this operation system. To fix the bug in Windows XP it would be necessary to replace & register those files located in Windows/System32 with the fixed MCE versions.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
