    PC wise you install it on that PC too. videos / music etc are all configured locally but for TV there is one server that all clients connect to.

    There is no mac support (MP needs .NET).

    There are a couple of things around this (DNLA, web-streaming etc) but the above is the out the box situation

    There is a conflict as you have said between WinTV ad MP TV. MP TV takes over the Hauppauge HVR-1265 card. I may be even getting more channels with it. The Titan TV worked great until last year. Now it will not run the scheduler. WinTV scheduler will let me program manually but I have to set a program for each day. If I try to set...

    I am running a Xubuntu machine as a server with all my movies and series on it, I run a VirtualBox VM with Windows 10 installed on the virtual machine and MP1 client installed on that. MP runs fine on the VM but I no longer have a tv tuner to test if passthrough is possible. I don't think it would work anyway.

    I compliment you on the thoroughness of your investigations. (y) Unfortunately, I don't have any ideas what the problem might be. :( Perhaps someone else will post with some suggestions. :unsure: -- from CyberSimian in the UK

    If you use a VPN connection to your home network, you should be able to use the MP client to connect to your server natively instead of using MPExtended.
