[QUOTE="velis, post: 1202798, member: 96429"] If I may chime in, there's more interest for this than seems on first sight. IMO it's MP's TV server that is its strongest card and should be ported first. I do recognise [USER=73415]@offbyone[/USER] 's comment about it containing the most OS-specific code though. Anyway, I'm attempting to make it work on linux (I'd like my TV server to run on a separate server, such as [URL='https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/install-tv-server-without-media-sources-s-drive.135281/']mentioned here[/URL]). In my case, it would help if it was only so far adapted to actually install & run under wine. That's way less complex than running it in a separate Windows VM, not to mention VM requires a Windows license. If I'm successful, I'll post my findings, but so far I'm not exactly holding my breath: even the installer fails, seemingly while checking .NET environment. I'm now trying to make it work by copying over a deployed Windows install. Maybe that might work. In the mean time, I'm rooting for you guys: MP is just too good to only run on Windows. It has been the only serving of multimedia in my family for more than 7 years now. [/QUOTE]
