[QUOTE="VE6CPU, post: 789133, member: 115573"] I'm considering switching from MythTV to MP. I'm getting tired of drivers that are not 100%. Things like having an HVR-1600 and a HVR-1250 both installed made it so the analog on the 1600 had no sound and wouldn't tune past ch 13. They may or may not be a fix for this and I haven't found it if there is. I really love Mythtv but its the drivers that is making me look else where. I tried NPVR today but I'm not sold on it. It's okay but I might as well see what else there is out there. MP looks really good as it's open source. Heck I may even be able to contribute some code! One thing I really like about Myth is the multiple backend/frontend setup it has. I've been looking through the docs but I can't really find anything on this with MP? I seen where its possible to stream recordings from the machine it was recorded on but I'm unsure about how this is done. Also can you have two machines with TV cards and have it store its recordings in a single DB and can you get each frontend to play the others recordings. For now I would just like to know it can be done. I'll worry about the how next weekend. [edit] I forgot to ask this also. Would it be possible to import my recordings from Myth in to MP? Since MP is sql based I'm sure I can do the select/inserts but is there anything different in the way MP stores it's recordings? Thanks for your input. Stephen [/QUOTE]
