[QUOTE="The Solutor, post: 1226931, member: 129024"] The EPG troubles on MS servers aren't a a reason to switch. Just use the great EPG collector instead of the MS servers (or in addition to them). EPG collector can also generate xml files that can be easly used by MP1, MP2 kodi and whatever. Also there isn't any reason to "switch" from a program to another. You can use, say, the free Office Starter and the free and open source Libre Office, taking the advantages of both worlds, the same rule is applicable to TV programs. MP2 and WMC aren't mutually exclusive, you can just start and stop their services via a script or via something like "Bill2's process manager" or you can use Dvblink as a server then use any client seamlessly. Speaking of program ligtness... surely WMC is the lightest of any usable media centre in 2017. WMC was heavy when it was released. But that happened in the AD 2004. Then it evolved, but nevertheless WMC is practically unchanged since the day Win7 was released, 8 years ago, which is an era by the IT metrics. MP instead is a maintained program, which is constantly evolving and growing as you can easily spot looking at its installer size... Say MP1 v1.2 was 24MB, MP1 v1.7 is 210MB... So MP has a bunch of pros, but lightness is not among them ;) [/QUOTE]
