judging by the freezes every time it gets slightly busy, I would say it is not written multi threaded. I think task manager lists it as having several threads though (19 for media portal and 23 for the service when I look now)

    Well I have had over 75% cpu usage (TvService.exe) on a dual P3, if Multithreading (SMP/SMT) wasn't working then I wouldn't be able to go above 50%.

    You would be best investing in faster disc subsytem, Hardware raid and better GPU.

    Hi,
    Thanks for that, but I am just replacing MB, RAM and CPU- the rest I have, for the amount I have set aside for the CPU I can chose either a 2.5 gig quad, or 3 gig dual. As for the GPU, I want to clarify, as far as I know it is irrelevant to my set up (though I could be wrong), as it is a server only (I watch on other PCs). Thanks again.

    Please

    Please could someone just give me a definitive yes or no answer- does this software support multithreading? Surely those who wrote it must know?

    Sorry for kind of hijackin this thread, but in case it does not work multithreaded would it be an advantag to
    bind mp on one core and tv server on the other core on a dualcore system? Have read that sometimes games
    that do not support multithreading would run more smooth this way.

    When I am trying to get some hardware or software to work and I am experiencing problems, my usual procedure is: simplify, simplify, simplify. That means avoid making choices that may not work; instead make the "standard" choice, which is often simply accepting the default. A static IP address is known to work with MP1. An address...

    Good evening, Yes, exactly that one. Principally, effect one is the most important, placing the menu controls according to the current facade. That is an interesting idea, using the include tag. I don't know either, whether the page is reloaded on facade change. I would have to try that out. You have got me thinking though that...
