[QUOTE="Frodo, post: 81907, member: 10277"] You can have a tvserver with just 1 card and 1,2,3 or more clients All clients can watch tv at the same time. However since the server only has 1 tv card they all see the same tv channel. Now if you had 3 tvcards in the tvserver, each client could watch a different channel. The first version which will be made publicly available wont have plugin support yet as said, we'll add it soon after so people can extend the server with various featues The only client there is right now is MediaPortal, so if you can run MP on your flash card then the answer is yes. Maybe in time other clients will arise, I can imagine other htpc's apps looking at the tvserver as well and it wouldnt surprise me someone is developing a client-plugin for mce 2005, sagetv, .... Note, that since the server uses RTSP you can watch streaming tv also in VLC and/or mplayer (dunno XBMC, can it play rtsp video streams?) However these apps cannot control the tvserver at this moment For controlling the tv-server (example zap to another channel) the client should either implement the protocol or use the tvcontrol.dll (.net) we supply As always things take (much) more time then we first thought. At this stage we're working on fixing the last issues with streaming. Once thats done we'll release it. I hope/expect that within a few weeks you will see a release Frodo [/QUOTE]
