[QUOTE="ezukas, post: 211226, member: 61470"] HDTV is too far away on DVB-T there is Lithuania... Even existing "standard" resolution broadcast is in terrible quality, because broadcasters have allocated too little bandwidth per program by squeezing as much as possible programs. What benefits of TV server do you mean? There is this comparison of TV engines [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/TV-Engine_0.3/overview[/url] . There are obvious benefits for the multiseat network, but in the situation when MediaPortal is running on the single dedicated machine with DVB-T receiver I don't see any benefit of TV server. But now I did noticed one important thing in that overview, related to the subject of this thread - MediaPortal TV engine does NOT support DVB-S2, but TV server does. This means H.264 is not supported by the MP internal engine. With current focus on the TV server development there is probably too little hope for changes in the internal engine any time soon. But I still very much hope that someone from developers will give a clear answer. Kind regards! [/QUOTE]
