[QUOTE="JSchuricht, post: 1129297, member: 87223"] Thanks, that got me going in the right direction. It's been so long since I setup MP1 that I completely forgot about setting up the codecs. Still light years ahead of hunting down countless codecs or dealing with problematic codec packs. My new issue is backend speed. I wavered from my original hardware plan slightly. The clients consist of one i3-3220, 16GB RAM, 180GB Intel 530 SSD and an Intel i5-4250U NUC D54250WYK, 8GB RAM, 180GB Intel 530 SSD both running fresh installs of Windows 8.1. The server is still virtualized on one of my hyper v servers with 4 cores available and 2GB RAM dynamically expanding to 8GB running Windows 8.1. Media is stored across two seperate physical servers totaling a bit over 130TB. There are 10GB links between all servers and 1GB to the clients. I should be overkill on hardware but I am seeing some speed issues. Right now I have only imported one movie folder consisting of about 2000 movies. That took a while as expected and seemed limited by CPU on the MP2 server with all 4 cores nearly maxed out. The issue I see now is searching is painfully slow. When I search or scroll the movie library just one core is being utilized by MP2-Server.exe. I have been poking around the MP2-Server Config directory but nothing stands out. Can you recommend any tweaks to improve speed? I have a bunch of TV shows I am thinking of importing and eventually a few thousand physical DVD's (after ripping to the server). [/QUOTE]
