[QUOTE="ethanx, post: 41835, member: 18933"] YouÂ´re right when you say a mediacenter should be considered as a dedicated machine, thatÂ´s why microsoft is shipping MCE 2005 along with the hardware, however I though the whole concept of MP was completely different: just software that could be installed on any system meeting all the minimum requirements, I see I was wrong so, whatÂ´s the point of getting a new machine just to have MP? If I purchased a dedicated one IÂ´d simply have MCE 2005, which, at least, is stable and reliable. Well. IÂ´m gonna try and format but I wonder if I manage to get it work, what happens next? you cant even touch the system, just in case MP refuses to work again? As for the daily CVS, I should say that when something was fixed, next time you installed a new update everything got fucked up again. For example: after installing one of them, you could choose the recording path, MP would take over IR.exe but once you were done with MP it would set it free. Then, after another update all what had been improved would simply disappear. And, please, dont compare a server to a home workstation, because, in my opinion, they dont have much in common.
