[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1095806, member: 82144"] I see, okay. :) If it were me I would do things slightly differently. Either I would use the import/export section to save and recover my settings if necessary... or I might put only the MySQL server in the VM. Since the MySQL database contains >90% of the TV Server settings (channels, schedules etc.), this would be a good way to make the TV Server "portable" without any performance penalty. Yes, that is probably true. However the VM cannot help but to affect the I/O performance of all things - network, HDD, memory etc. Maybe the effect is so small as to be unnoticeable for you? Personally I would not do it... but everybody has their own preferences. :) I am a TV Server expert and only rarely have any problems with it... and if there is a problem I can discover and fix it quickly without needing to "nuke" the install. Also, most of my tuners are directly connected to my PC so don't work the best with a VM. We need the software from SiliconDust. They provide a BDA driver which is required to use the tuner. Best regards, and thanks for your answer. :) mm [/QUOTE]
