    From my experience Win7 Embeded are quite good...

    I was testing on the same HW:
    • Windows 7 x86 Professional Edition (with 4GB RAM)
    • Windows 7 x64 Professional Edition (with 4GB RAM)
    • Windows 7 Embended Standard x64 (with 4GB RAM)
    I would say x86 are slower and less reliable if I compare "Windows 7 x86 Professional Edition" and "Windows 7 x64 Professional Edition (with 4GB RAM)".

    When I compare "Windows 7 x64 Professional Edition (with 4GB RAM)" with "Windows 7 Embended Standard x64 (with 4GB RAM)" it is difficult as in embded version you can select which parts of Windows you want to install. I was playing a lot with Windows Embeded system and finnaly I end up with recommended Windows functionality package for DVR (based on MCE). Clean installation was consumming 700MB RAM & 54 processes.
    I would say "Windows 7 Embended Standard x64 (with 4GB RAM)" is more reliable "Windows 7 x64 Professional Edition (with 4GB RAM)".
    The testing system was based on singleseat MP1 installation.

    Just update - Windows 8.1 Pro x64 is for sure faster from user point of view against Windows 7 x64 on the same HW in my case (MSI MB + AMD CPU):
    • faster OS start up
    • faster MP response
    • faster (much much faster) wake up from S3
    • faster MP GUI

    MP1 MP2 Radio Time (TuneIn) Stations "Not Supported" DE
    This may or may not be a pause, after all, this is a playlist, it can constantly change, I don’t very well understand the mechanism of working with playlists in online broadcasts. Well, here you need to look at what is happening in the Media Portal player. And find someone who understands how it works.

    MP1 MP2 Odd Standby issue DE
    Since I played around with all the settings as per the previous posts and despite putting everything back to how it was, as far as I can tell, now when my HTPC wakes up to make a recording it no longer does so in away mode. I will probably do a restore from a backup in the hope that that will resolve the issue.:mad:

    MP1 MP2 1.29.0 Mp 1.32 Final x64 Fresh Install Fails DE
    I have not seen that one but it is possible that after installing the 1.32 x86 version that I scanned and tested TV before installing the x64, but not sure it that would make any difference! I am currently testing an improved version but at this point it is still not clear how or when a fixed x64 version will be available.
