[QUOTE="Bagal, post: 363817, member: 27764"] I've been using FTR since the 1.3.0 release as I was waiting for the live tv integration, as PD said one of the best features is the "start around this time" scheduling, but the main reason I use FTR is the support of multiple TV Servers. Master/slave servers were originally implemented in the TV server but was dropped for the 1.0 release as it never worked properly. Prior to using FTR if I wanted to switch between TV servers in the client I had to shut down MediaPortal, enter the config, change the server and restart, which basically meant that I didn't switch servers very often! With FTR, I just choose a channel in the guide and then FTR allocates a tuner on either one of the servers and away I go, happy as larry! :D I should also add that I think FTR's management console is great as without loading up MediaPortal I can browse the TV Guide, schedule recordings, see what recordings are coming up etc. etc. [/QUOTE]
