MP 1.0 Multiseat REALLY slow? PLEASE HELP! (2 Viewers)

[png]

Hi all,

Have been messing around with MP and its multi-seat functionality for a couple of days now. I just cant get it to work properly. The single-seat maschine works great though. When I start up MP on my remote maschine (a lap-top) it takes ages for it to start (freezed at "Loading window plugins". Then when I choose "My TV" it takes ages again and im bumped back to where im supposed to set the ip-adress or hostname to the tv-service.. What have I done wrong? Ive been looking around and googleing alot and the only thing I found what to NOT use a IP adress when connecting to the server, and that didnt change anything.

Try to disable firewall on server

Not really a secure solution, is it?

I have the same problem, the TVServer plugin loads for ages. If I disable it, MP starts instantly.

If you have dedicated server behind router you dont need firewall..

I have the same problem. Startup and response times (going into mytv, changing chanels, etc) on the client machine are not good. The single seat machine works like a charme. Disabling the firewall is not an option, since the "server" is no dedicated server. Its a normal machine with internet access, and it is used to browse the web etc.

Will give a try, anyways and report back if it helps.

Ok, disabling the firewall helps. Is there any other ways? Some special ports MP needs?

I dont know.. I've formated my server few times.. Sometimes is working fine with firewall enabled, and sometimes not.
Maybe scan with port viewer software ?

Any computer connected to the internet should have a firewall. But you (and BurnumBurnum) are right, it IS the firewall. If I turn it off, MediaPortal is instant once again. Which ports are used?

I did. Added tcp ports 554, 31456 and 49567 to the server firewall... et voilá

Thanks! UDP or TCP? I'll try it tonight.
