[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1245545, member: 141969"] I suppose people have different requirements. I am posting this from a 14-year old Sony laptop that is still running Windows XP. It is fine for web browsing, email, and my own programming projects, but too slow these days for youtube videos (CPU goes to 100% and the video is jerky). There have been no OS updates for years, and no MS security updates either, but I don't visit "those" sort of web sites where I am likely to become infected with malware, and I don't click on random links in spam email (I receive email as plain ASCII text, not as HTML). My HTPC runs MP on Windows Vista (I am one of the very few MP users still running such an old setup). I don't see a problem with Windows 7 reaching end of support in 2020, and will be using Windows 7 on the new HTPC that I am planning to build later this year. Then MP should be able to allow you to watch and record TV. (y) That is another set of headaches. There are people who use Kodi with MP, but I am not one of them, so cannot advise. MP2 uses essentially the same TV Server as MP1. I think that the internal interface is slightly different, but the core code is the same, and the setup ("TV Server Config") is the same. But MP2 does not have a TV expert to help with setup problems. I have never used separate client and server setups, so cannot advise on how to set them up. Also, I am not 100% convinced that you can stream from an MP server to a Ceton Echo; others may know. I have never encountered that problem myself, and cannot suggest what is going wrong with your setup. As you can see from the above, my area of experience and knowledge is almost completely disjoint with your problems. You really need an MP user who resides in the USA, who has a setup similar to yours which is working correctly, who reads the threads on this forum, and who is prepared to speak up and offer you help. If there is no one, then I think that you are on your own. I am sorry that this sounds so negative. :( -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
