[QUOTE="cheezey, post: 725158, member: 10350"] Your requirements mirror my own so here are answers based on my setup (1 TV Server/MP client in the lounge and 2 MP clients in teenage girls bedrooms so are used 25 hours a day :D), just to give you another view: [LIST=1] [*]Absolutely. [*]Lots. I have a single Blackgold 6-in-1 with the DVB-T and a single DVB-S used - this is sufficient to handle all live TV / recordings in the house thanks to the fact that the TV server supports watching/recording multiple channels from a single mux. [*]I use Windows 7 x64 - rock solid. [*]My TV Server is a 4 year old HP desktop, 2Gb RAM and 2 x 500HDD, the clients are even older. My TV Server does all TV recording, timeshifting and stores all movies, TV series & music for all clients. [*]All timeshifting is done on the TV server. [/LIST] As you can see you certainly do not need lots of bells & whistles for MediaPortal - but I'm sure they'd help :) [/QUOTE]
