[QUOTE="morpheus_xx, post: 1122676, member: 48495"] You have to add a "media source" to the network path. Then each client will access the files directly on the share. Only if you add a "server [I]local[/I] source" you are able to use local folders on the server without the need to create a UNC share for them. Access then happens over DOKAN/HttpStream, which is slower than UNC shares. So generally I'd recommend to use UNC. You can install MP2 in parallel to MP1 and try it first. If your server is also used for TV, you should make sure that you don't run MP1 TvServer + MP2 Server/NativeTV concurrently, as they might access the same tuner and could cause trouble...
