[QUOTE="slimmj0k3r, post: 697576, member: 86349"] my server that I am going to be using: its a Quad core system that I built last year. I mainly do all my music/movie ripping and converting (mkv container) on that PC which can take up some time/processing power. My storage: I've built myself an unraid server currently setup with 4TB (2x 2TB HD) with plenty of room for expansion. Currently I've got about 100 Blu ray backups and i'm using about 1.5TB of data as well as a few music CD's I've backed up. The only reason I opt to go with a company such as direcTV or another is because I usually take advantage of the triple package which comes with Telephone, Internet, and Television Services. Is there a way I can use the STB with multiple clients via the server? I don't mind getting multiple STBs however i can't stand the clutter in front of the TV and switching sources. One source with everything I need would be great. My goal is to have the clients setup only with the TV and PC in the room and everything else will be in another room, hopefully i will be able to build some sort of server room where i can setup a small rack. All of my clients will use the TV portion of MP more than anything else, occasionally a movie and or some music. I haven't looked into remotes however i was thinking of going with Logitech Harmony remotes but they can get pricey.
