Client and Server totally decoupled? (1 Viewer)

[Corry]

I don't watch tv much, so I'll be honest, a DVR isn't that important in my life Thus the sporadic nature of my posts.

I have just a quick question after TVE3 failed to record a show I had scheduled for tonight. The question is the topic. Are the client and server totally decoupled from each other? Is the client simply receiving video and telling the server which video to send to it? Or does the server need the client running to actually record something? I know MP started out as a single project, not a client/server thing, so I suppose its possible they are still dependant, but extendable to other clients. Is it that or is my tve borked? Its still running, still shows the scheduled recording, but doesn't seem to have done anything about it.

Thanks

The server runs without the client.

When a recording is scheduled it is scheduled on the TV Server, the client then doesn't need to do anything.

As to why it failed? I don't know. You should take a look at your log files and see if there is anything suspicious, or you post them here with some more details about the situation.

Hope that helps,
