[QUOTE="plotto, post: 239536, member: 57628"] Hi, Is there an advantage to using TVserver over having Seperate PC's with tuner cards? Here is my setup.(all stored in a server rack in the garage) I have a Server, that holds all my music and video files and photos. It aslo has a DVB-S Card. It drives the main screen, HDMI, in the Lounge. Delivers Caller ID to all other PC's as well. There are another 5 x PC's each with HDMI, DVB-S and running MP ( these deliver MP over HDMI to the bedrooms, rumpus and Kitchen (via Cat6 with converters) Audio is via the individual PC, thru Multizone amp to ceiling speakers in each room. (Once again these PC's are all stored in a rack in the garage) The PC's get all media they require from the server. If I was to use TVserver I would have to install more than one DVB-s card in to it so users could watch different channels simulatneously. So is there any advantage at present to using the TVserver over the setup I have currently got? Thanks in advance [/QUOTE]
