Mediaportal server host needs display turned on
#1
Hi,

The PC my mediaportal server is hosted on requires its display, a TV, to be turned on in order for me to access any live TV or scheduling functions via external clients e.g. a tablet or desktop PC running Kodi + mediaportal PVR add-on. 

With my TV off, I can access already recorded items and I get live EPG data just fine when using an external client.  However, when I attempt to watch live TV, I get a "no signal detected" error.  The scheduling process doesn't look abnormal at any time, but any programs set to record via the client will not be recorded until the TV is turned on. 

Turning the TV on, if I start watching a show on an external client and then turn the TV off, the stream will continue for about a minute and a half before returning the same error.  I can change channels in this period as well, but only for that minute and a half. 

I would really prefer to leave my TV off.  If anyone can help me achieve that, it would be much appreciated. 

Thanks
