[QUOTE="RedDom, post: 21350, member: 10297"] One thing i was thinking about, though i don't have the skills to actually do anything about, was whether it would be possible to write a networked BDA driver, this would allow you to use remote TV tuners without changing how the app works. Basically you would write a bda driver that media portal would use, but instead of talking directly to a local TV tuner, it would talk via the network to another process on the remote tuner pc, which would then talk to the real BDA driver for whatever tuner you were using. This would work not only with mediaportal but with anything that supported BDA. something like this currently: MP-->BDA--->Hardware MP -> BDA_Client_proxy <------ network-------->BDA_Server-->BDA-->Hardware This doesn't do quite what you want, but does provide some of the things that Sage can do, with network tuners etc, this allows you to have a very thin pc client running MP, but with all the tuners and things hidden in a server somewhere else.
