Hardware requirements for TV Server (1 Viewer)

[bonzo206]

Hi,

I´m wondering what the hardware requirements for the server are to manage:

• at least two TV Cards
• EPG
• HDTV(h.264)

I have PC running as server (athlon mobile 2,5 GHz, Raid 5, 1GB Memory, ATI 7500. My Media PC is much more powerfull (Opteron 165; 2 GB Ram; currently two KNC One DVB-S; NVidia 6600GT).

And also available Satelco DVB-S2 Card

Would client-server mode make sense with my configuration?

Thank´s for your input

the requirements for the server are not that high
any normal pc will do
i'm running mine on a 1.8ghz, 1gig memory and offcourse enough diskspace.
However, if you want to watch HDTV H.264, then the client pc which you use
to watch tv/recordings should be state of the art
