advantages in tv-server? (1 Viewer)

[Martin B]

Hi,

Right now im using mp 0.2.2.0 on my htpc. Would there be any advantages in DL the tv-server and running that on the same pc, or is the tv server only madeor ppl who has a dedicated server runnning?

Sorry about this propably stupid question, but i cant seem to find an answer in the wiki

If you use the PC for other than a HTPC, it would be advantages to use the server. You'll be able to close the MP program and still have the TV server recording in the background.

Ahhh yeah, that is a nice feature. Is that the 'only' diffrence from ordinary MP on one pc?

as soon as the final version is out, the TV-Server wil simply be much more advanced.
stability, features, HDTV (h.264) support, better EPG graber, better autotune,.....

just remember that is is still very Beta, so may not be the most stable piece of software you have ever used
