[QUOTE="jcee, post: 102841, member: 10506"] I see the problem, Frodo. I was just curious what you guys think. Because TVcentral seems to manage this, but I guess this works because they can asume only one user, instead of TV server having to serv multiple users. I dont know how it currently works in MP TV server, when you have 3 cards and 4 viewers. What happens if viewer No.4 decides to watch TV? Does he/she get a info that no TV card is available OR does MP tell him, that he only can watch one of the three channels that the other 3 viewers are currently watching? Without really knowing the concept of TV server, I could imagine there would be a solution where TV server broadcast a list of currently available channels. When two viewers come in, and the third arrives he/she can still select all*) channels. If viewer No.4 comes in, he/she should see a list of the available channels. As soon as one of the other viewers quit, more (or all) channels come available. *) I was just thinking: What if you have different tv cards? One for DVB-C encrypted with CAM and one DVB-T and one DVB-C (no cam)?! I guess TV server manages and looks into the list, if there is a tv card available to show that channel..?!? Hmm.. ... got confused... But I guess you got the idea. The tracking of channels/cards busy could be PID based!? Nevertheless, I understand, that this is not a feature of MP. And this does not make me feel unhappy about this great piece of software. Continue the good work :-) [/QUOTE]
