[QUOTE="Bagal, post: 322552, member: 27764"] I've got 4tr all setup but I'm having a couple of problems. Let me give a quick explanation of how I've set everything up first (I've attached some screenshots as well): Server#1 - this is my main server with 2 DVB-T cards, TV-Server is installed here and I've installed 4tr core services, management console, recorder/tuner etc. Server#2 - this is my HTPC in the lounge, it has an analogue tuner connected to my STB, TV-Server is installed here and I've installed the 4tr recorder/tuner for MP. Client#1 - this is a laptop separate to the 2 servers. I've installed 4tr client plugin here and pointed it to Server#1. In the 4tr management console I've given Server#1's Tuner/Recorder a priority of 1 and Server#2's a priority of 2. I've setup channels, TV guide, linked the channels to the TV-Server channels on each server, so that all appears to be fine. This is my problem: [LIST] [*]On Client#1 I load MP and navigate to the TV guide, everything is displayed correctly [*]I choose a channel such as 'BBC One' (this is available on both servers) and TV is displayed coming from server#1 (I know this because the STB hasn't changed channels), I can happily flick between channels on server#1 and all is fine [*]I then choose a channel I know is only available from server#2 and after a short pause I get an error message saying 'recorder/tuner doesn't support this channel'. All channels from server#2 do this. [*]I then close MP and restart from the beginning, but this time I first choose a channel from server#2. [*]TV is displayed fine and I can flick between channels from server#2. [*]I then choose a channel 'BBC One' available from both servers, expecting server#1 to be used as it has the higher priority, but the channel is tuned on server#2. [/LIST] So I effectively have 2 problems, the first is that sometimes it won't switch between TV-servers and the second is that it appears the tuner priority isn't working (assuming I've set this up correctly of course!) If I use the 'Live TV' section of the management console, I can load channels up from either server and it all works correctly, I can see that the URL is either 'rtsp://server#1/streamX.X' or 'rtsp://server#2/streamX.X', switching back and forth is not a problem. Apart from my problems, so far my experience with 4tr has been extremely positive and I'm really impressed with it! :thx: for all your hard work! [/QUOTE]
