for two clients to watch the same channel, does that require two tuners or will they share the same?

TIA

Hi and welcome smoleson

For the same channel it should only require one tuner for as many clients as you like - they share.

MP1 MP2 Scanning & Mapping channels DE

I note that you are using MP2. The following applies to MP1, but I think that MP2 is identical in this situation. "TV Server Config" has a "TV Mapping" panel in the "TV Channels" section. On the "TV Mapping" tab: The left column lists the channels that have not yet been mapped to the TV tuner identified by the drop-down menu just...

Can anyone tell me the step-by-step procedure for bringing up a second channel in pip mode?

MP1 MP2 Audio/Music output not stereo. 2.41, 2.5, 1.38.3 DE

I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...
