I couldn't afford a whole new dedicated system for mp, so i turned over my webserver, with a celeron 1 ghz. Runs smoothly, TV/video/music playback only.
I'm running on a Athlon 750MHz.
Mostly smooth, but with the latest release I've noticed some
performance problems watching recorded tv.
Usually a restart of MP solves the problem.
I am a bit concerned about cpu usage when not using MP.
0.1.2.0 eats 50% CPU just running the gui.
might have to do with directX 9 support etc. but it still feels
strange that it consumes so much cpu doing virtually nothing.

Athlon 64 3200+
so, that counts as a 2 Ghz?
running hdtv smooth with onboard graphics.

Ok, so perhaps a solution, but not the "right" solution. On the client, within media portal configuration, under TV settings, advanced options, I switched to UNC paths instead of the default RSS, and it's working very well. Sure I had to figure out the paths, but no big deal.
Maybe helpful for someone in the future. Thanks for the...

If the files are accessible on your network, which I guess they must be if PowerDVD can play them then you should be able to find them in MP2.
See here for further info.

That is not supported. In folder view you can just navigate through the pre-defined folder structure, you loose also the filter options, thouse are only existing in library view.
