Title: TV Setup Help
Post by: daveman on December 13, 2015, 11:34:00 am
HI There,

I have my the MC software installed on my main computer which accesses the actual media which is on a hardwired server in my home.  I want to keep the library on this machine and have no plans on changing this.

I have now purchased a WinTV-HVR-955Q which I want to setup on the actual server (which has direct access to cable wire).

I am now wondering if there is a way to get the MC software to "find" the tv card on the server.

What is the best way to set it up?

Do I need to set up a second install of MC on the server?  Do I share libraries? 

thanks

Dave

You need to run JRiver Media Center on the server as well as on the client.  MC running on the server should be configured to be a server (Tools \ Options \ Media Network).  Run TV setup on the server.  Once set up, you can watch TV channels on a client.  Recordings are done on the server only.
