[QUOTE="Jay_UK, post: 687973, member: 98509"] Hi there, I use mine with homeplug/powerline adapters (bought from ebuyer). HD content is fine. One thing that caught me out for a while, was that I ran SAF5 on the client - this is configured to do a resize for SD content (through ffdshow video) - The processor is not capable of doing this. Simply disabling this solved some of the stuttering issue (but I believe does cause issues with subtitles - but I don't use them) I also spent a bit of time (more than with my main HTPC) to tweak performance (fine tuning Windows7 services/processes, tweaking the AV). HDD/SSD is used by the client, all the thumbs/cache is loaded from the local disk - so it makes the screens/menus usable. I also run my DBs and plugins locally. The only things that are remote, are the TV Server DB and the actual movies/music/pictures/etc. So MovingPictures/TV Series/etc are all local on the clients SSD. Hope this helps, J. [/QUOTE]
