[QUOTE="BonzaiDuck, post: 1292214, member: 169717"] If I make a simple installation of MP to my HTPC -- without "server and multiple clients" -- am I correct to assume that it won't recognize DVR captures stored on my Win 2012 R2 home server? I had moved those files to the server, deleting them from the HTPC. MP doesn't want to find them, or somehow cannot access them, while PowerDVD will do that. I can always copy the DVR captures back to my HTPC. It would give me a chance to organize them better. Right now, I await an Amazon delivery of a Sony HT/AV Receiver to replace my misbehaving 12-year-old ONKYO. It was $348 + $32 tax + $20 two-year-support. I had Amazon "rewards" -- never paid attentiion to them before. So I got the receiver for $148. Sweet! I should be able to flip between the AVR Receiver with JBL speakers and the 5.1 Logitech system on the HTPC. Used to be able to do it from within WMC. Thanks for the info about MP being amenable to various remote configurations. Once I get the rest of this sorted out, that will be the "icing on the cake", so to speak . . . . [/QUOTE]
