[QUOTE="Johnmen, post: 359626, member: 87184"] Hi Jez, I wonder if I can get some help from you about your instructions of setting up MP TV server client on XBMC. I have followed your instructions but I don't seem to get it working. At the moment I press the XBMC TV server from the Video plugins in the XBMC interface, the screen quickly showed me a window and returned to what it was. I tried it many times and managed to read what is saying in the quick window was: retreived 0 items bluh bluh bluh. It looks to me that the XBMC TV server client gets nothing when it is being launched. That leads to a question that I can not answer: how to specify the address of the TV server? If that is not needed, how does the XBMC client finds the TV server? I found under the resources folder there is a settings.xml file, that looks like the setting file that specifies where to find the TV server. But I have question about the TVserver port in that xml file. As my research tells me that media portal tv server doesn't use the port number 9596 that is specified in the xml file. I tried running the xbmctvserver.exe on the media portal TV server but I got error saying something like TV controller could not be found. PS, I found two versions of xbmctvserver.dll, one sized 36kb, one sized 19kb. which one is the right one? [/QUOTE]
