Muitple MCE Machines

External Since: Mar 22, 2005 Posts: 1

Has anyone networked muitiple MCE machines (Base machine with OS and
acceptable video card only) to a single MCE server? Since all the extender
box have a problem of some sort, I want to have actual MCE's but still
utilize one server to recording and organizing the media content. Are ther
issues with this approach?

Extender boxes fail in the following area: HDTV can not be shared, some
don't have built-in DVD, etc.

I was asking almost the same question in a previous thread titled:

MCE household scenario questions

I hope we can all sort this one out....
