[QUOTE="porky996t, post: 812991, member: 75318"] Hi JJayzon, Re the clients, they are pretty easy to set up. I use the Zotac ZBoxes and stream over a wired network using EOP "Homeplugs". I think there are some forum members who stream to about six or more clients :eek: MePo basically consists of two main components, one part is the TV Server and the other part is the Client front end. When you install MP you are asked if you will be using it to watch TV - if you say yes, the TV Server part is installed in addition to the client, if you say no, you'll just get the 'client' part installed. The Tv Server is the bit that deals with the EPG, Channel scanning, timeshifting & recording. The client just deals with the media playback elements, and it is in the client that you set up the paths to various storage drives for films and music etc. On my main HTPC I have both TV Server and Client installed as this is where the TV Cards are. On the clients, I just have the 'client' part installed and use an IP address to connect to the live TV stream. I must admit, that MP is abit daunting at first, (or it was to me) there really is so much that can be done with it it can overwhelm at the beginning. HTH, M [/QUOTE]
