[QUOTE="hafblade, post: 787913, member: 110423"] If you want to watch TV with MediaPortal you NEED a server. In a normal case you install the server for managing your TV data together with a MySql or MsSql database. This server sends your TV stream data to your MediaPortal client and thats it. Alternatively you could use fortherecord as TV server but its more difficult to install this. An alternative without server is to use the standard MediaCenter which is installed together with every normal Windows 7 installation. This doesn't need any server or something like this. If you only want to watch TV this could be the best solution. Another really great software is DVB Viewer. This hasn't media possibilities like MediaPortal or Windows MediaCenter but has a really great TV functionality. But the only software where you can watch TV on many clients at the same time and even more than one channel with only one tv card is MediaPortal. [/QUOTE]
