MP on VM (1 Viewer)

Also TVServer works in a Workstation 6.5 VM.
The TV Card must be USB to be assigned to the VM. I tried a Pinnacle 330e with success in a Vista x32 Guest over a Vista x64 Host.
Please note the x64 -> x32 driver hop. Great work VMWare

You say it must be USB, do you know if it works with FireWire? Are there any other HyperVisors (Xen, VirtualBox, Windows Server 2008) that supports FW-cards?

Thanks for the info about EVR. With that enabled I am now able to view videos. Before that they wouldnt play but could navigate Mediaportal menus etc.

Did you ever come around trying any of these options regarding FireWire?
I myself was thinking of using VirtualBox. But as you, have not search the forums over at VirtualBox for any of these information.
I have firewire cards and was thinking of getting some PCI ones with dual DVB-S2 inputs and one with dual DVB-T inputs.

So the big question remains, does VirtualBox support pass trugh(like ESXi "http://www.vm-help.com/esx40i/VMDirectPath/USB_Setup.php")?
Would like to run a clean base for virtualbox, that might involve Linux distro for base(would prefer Windows XP/7/2003). If anyone has anything to share on the subject, I would appreciate it alot
