[QUOTE="samuel337, post: 8229, member: 10347"] That was my original idea - I had started to write an ASP.NET web application which would be bundled with the lightweight CassiniEx web server (it is also possible to write a very simple web server using .NET as well because all the hosting functionality for ASP.NET is in-built into the .NET framework). Performance-wise and personally, ease of coding, this was much better. At the end of the day though, I didn't want to duplicate the work of someone else (seems pointless and sort of says look what I can do and you can't). That someone was Maschine who had written a tv scheduler in PHP. So to make it work, I had to use apache with PHP and asp.net support. Besides, with installation - its not that difficult now is it? I wouldn't run it in the same process as MP though, because the web interface is designed to be used regardless of whether MP is running or not. Sam [/QUOTE]
