Thank you for the reply. I am sorry that I was not clear. Let me explain my setup. MC1 is on my home office computer that has more storage and CPU power. MC2 is an old computer serving as the HTPC in the living room. The computer2 is used primarily for music playback. It is also used sometimes to stream videos from web content providers such as Netflix. I just added the TV tuner to MC1 to record TV shows.
Each MC has its own storage for music stored in AIFF format for optimum music playback. Even though both computers are connected with wired gigabit ethernet, I still do not want the network latencies to degrade the music playback quality. So I would prefer not to stream music to MC2 from the MC1 library. I prefer to keep music files locally on each MC computer.
If I load the MC1 library to MC2, would that cause all video and music files to be brought over from MC1 to MC2? I would like just to use MC2 to playback TV recordings from the MC1 library without changing the MC2 music library, is that possible?
