[QUOTE="sleepycol, post: 418410, member: 20995"] Paranoid, I think the above is the reason your survey showed lots of users using TV server. The install is not clear all. I'm still convinced 90% of users only need TVE2 and not an over complicated server/sql install etc etc. Surely most just want to watch TV on one PC? Maybe that would have been a better question in the survey. Rather than how many use TV server? They only use TV server because on install you get asked "Do you use MP to watch TV". If you say yes then TV server is installed. Whereas if you say no, TVE2 is used. So anyone who wants to watch TV will never answer no to that question unless you know the "secret". Hence you get a lot of users using TV server when they probably don't "need" it. I hope you see what I'm trying to say? I think you guys have done a great job in updating TVE2 and it works great for me now (except Blue3 4:3 skin issue with Recorded TV view - see blue3 skin feedback thread where I have posted the small issue [url]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/blue3-skin-feedback-293/recorded-tv-view-error-59489/[/url]). I'm absolutely gutted that TVE2 will not be supported anymore. It does the job fantastically well and isn't installing lots of other "paraphinalia". Its a real shame TVE2 is getting dropped.
