[QUOTE="Benoire, post: 1009773, member: 121281"] Hi Bopfrog, It sounds like you want a server/client relationship setup. As an example, I have a Windows Server 2012 Essentials unit with 4 x DVB-S/S2 server currently 2 clients. Timeshifting and recording plus media serving are done from the server, with the clients being simple small units designed for HD playback. You could use a NAS with USB tuners, or build your own server out of cheap trademe hardware and windows 7 license with drivebender for drive pooling. With respect to Sky, yes you can do this as that is my reason behind the 4 tuners. It's a bit of a taboo subject here due to the legal greyness so if you want to know more PM me. You'll also need to use EPGCollector if you want to access the sky channels as at present MP TVServer cannot get the correct EIT EPG data (it is repeated twice) nor channel numbers. I'm hoping that DJBlu's custom data grabber work is incorporated in to TVE properly, then we might get a true STB replacement server! [/QUOTE]
