For people who are savvy with technical jargon, that means you'll be able to receive "copy freely" content.Ī major update of this plugin to fix some long-standing problems, improve the performance and add continuous Black-Bar detection/removal capability. but other channels like TBS, FX, TNT, USA, ESPN, NFL, MLB, Fox Sports are usually no problem. Generally speaking, premium and "subscription" channels such as HBO, Showtime, PPV and XXX will not be receivable. Exactly which channels are available varies between cable providers. Some channels or programs may not be receivable due to digital rights management (DRM) restrictions on the content.
With MediaPortal 1.5 we've added support for CableCARD tuners. CableCARD has finally given Americans (and some Canadians) the ability to easily use their HTPC to receive encrypted cable TV. Up until a couple of years ago if you wanted to use an HTPC to receive encrypted cable TV in America the only option was a complicated and sometimes temperamental IR blaster setup. chances are you've been living under a rock for the past few years!įor those of us living in other parts of the world who have no idea what a CableCARD is: maybe you're familiar with using CAMs and CI slots to receive encrypted channels from your TV provider? Well, a CableCARD is similar to a CAM. If you live in America, are passionate about HTPCs, and haven't heard about CableCARD. In order to keep up-to-date with the newest IPTV transmission techniques, we've overhauled our IPTV support to ensure MediaPortal 1.5 is capable of meeting your IPTV needs now and well into the future. MediaPortal has been able to receive so-called IPTV for about 4 years. However, the global increase in stability and speed of the internet over the past few years is making it possible for more and more internet service providers to offer television services which you can receive via your internet connection. Today most of us receive our TV via terrestrial, cable or satellite transmissions. This change should make configuration easier (Plug&Play) and provides lots of new features like scheduled system reboot, configurable away mode and more options for remote clients. With MediaPortal 1.5 we've integrated the PowerScheduler++ functionality into MediaPortal. In previous releases PowerScheduler was installed during the MediaPortal installation and PowerScheduler++ could be installed as an extension. Because of this we were able to provide many bugfixes in all areas and hopefully make this release the best one ever! Thanks to our great community for a lot of testing during the last four weeks. The download link is at the bottom of this news item. We are proud to announce the release of the Final version of MediaPortal 1.5.0.
