Foxtel & Free to Air in the same Media Centre

For a long time many of our customers have wanted to combine the High definition of Free to Air (FTA) TV such as channel 9,10 etc and the Foxtel channels. The problem is that Microsoft MCE does not support different types of TV input card i.e. digital for FTE and analogue for foxtel.

A hack has been developed in xpmediacentre.com.au which by making some complicated changes to the media centre's configuration by hand can do this!

I have been running this configuration for over 6 weeks now and it works well the only problem was it took 6 attempts to get it working...

Lets hope that Microsoft (MS) in the future will support different inputs and multiple guides...
