Gratitude

Just in case you haven't been paying attention, I really like SageTV. I know it's not for everyone, but I just can't get enough of the flexibilty and control that they've built into the platform. The pace of change is amazing; so many new features from the development team and huge strides...

6 Months In

It's been a little more than 6 months since I switched to Sage TV. And while it hasn't always been easy (to be fair, mostly problems with my HD PVR) when I look 7MC I don't see much that would bring me back. Don't get me wrong, there are some really cool new features (Turbo Scroll) in...

Finishing the Job - Disabling Media Center

Even after disabling Media Center via group policy there is still a MC process that will run periodically. I didn't realize it until my "extender" wouldn't go to sleep (MCUpdate had pegged 1 CPU). Fortunately, it's easy to fix. Open up the task scheduler and right-click the mcupdate...
