what is meant by premium source? Is that a tuner card? wtv-files can be watched with WMC and WMP and in MPC (tried it just now)
I have a HTPC with a dual analog and dual digital tuner from Hauppauge. I only watch TV via the analog tuners. I use WMC for 5 years now and I'm quite satisfied with it except that the EPG doesn't load automatically any more.
For watching movies and TV-series I recently turned to XBMC. I like the idea that I can watch TV via XBMC as well but I don't know how.
A few years ago I tried installing MP, but I couldn't get that to work. Now I dare to try leaving WMC again, but.... I'm not that skilled in programming and so (maybe that's why I couldn't get MP to work).
In short on this page http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=PVR/Backend, at 1.3 is suggested to make a choise for a back end source. Nowhere is explained on what basis I could make the right choise.
Going with the WMC as backend might me much easier I think?
so main question is will your/this setup work for me as well?
