Hi there.
I´m planning to move all my media and tv-tuner(s) to a dedicated "media server". A machine that
is always on or in hibernate mode. Today I have one computer as a GBPVR-server and use MVP as a client.
Everything works perfect with EPG-updates and wake up´s from hibernate when a recording is scheduled.
Now to the questions. Is there an easy way to access the server tv-tuners from other PC´s
in my homenetwork? All i really need is to watch live tv from client computers and be able to
switch channel. I´ve read som tips here on the forum about this but it seems a bit to much "trial and error" to me.
SageTV client can handle this but I rather use GBPVR.
My other question is how to setup my media server to wake up from hibernate when a client computer
is trying to access media stored on the server?
