Yes and No... You can use an MP1 client as SingleSeat (on the same machine than the MP2 server) but without EPG data. For this you need to edit the gentle.config and add some SQLite files to MP1. What exactly to do you can find by searching in the forum. On Multiseat you need to fiddle with tons of things like changing the Database and similar... If the MP1 TV Plugin wouldn't be such an ugly piece of code and doing lots and lots of things in a really "hacky" way this normally should work. But with the current MP1 Client plugin it doesn't. This will be changing as soon as there will be a MP1 plugin for the new TV engine (TVE 3.5) that should replace the old TV engine some day. Today a test of the new TVE only is possible with MP2 because of the not proper working MP1 TV plugin.Is it possible to use MP1 with the already existing MP2 TV server?
Hi.
But we need to know what those quirks are about to help you solving them.
A nasty one for me too. Morpheus is working on a solution, so most likely this will be solved in one of the next Weekly releases... I've tried to delete the schedules from inside rthe SetupTV (same as MP1) and not even there it's possible Seems more like a bug in the TV engine (what's identical to the one from MP1)1. Unable to delete series recordings from the TV guide. I delete the series, I go back to MP2 and it's still there scheduled to be recorded.
That's not true. You easily can delete Recordings from within the GUI Just hit the "Info" button on your remote and select the last option. In German it's "Von Speicher löschen", haven't the exact term in English:2. Unable to delete recorded TV from the GUI. No delete button.
This only is a matter of your EPG Data source and has nothing to do with MP at all.3. Unable to get season and episode numbers when recording TV shows.
This also is noting MP related, it's simply some sort of misconfiguration. I'm using MP2 daily since more than a year now and always could play any video I wanted...4. Unable to play videos
This I can't judge as I don't have Netflix (or any other streaming service) due to limited bandwidth here in the countryside.5. Unable to play Netflix from OnlineVideos

I'm using MP2 every day...I'm not sure what MP2 daily is
With mouse you can use the right button to reach this menu for the selected item.I was trying to do it using keyboard/mouse.
First you need to import them to the media library by adding a media source. Without adding a media share containing your videos you can't play them in MP2 at allI'm not sure what kind of configuration I can do in order to play videos
I often heard that Schedules Direct is the only useful and working EPG source for US and other American users... As I never was in the US I can't judge this by myself, but most users I know are telling this. Maybe @breese , a team member living in the US and a very active MP2 tester and user can tell you more about how this is working in MP2...I guess I need to subscribe to Schedules Direct to get this info.
