zebo51 15 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Been using MB2 for a few years and looking to move to MB3. What do most recommend for the OS if you could pick from Win 7, 8 or Server 2012? I think I would like to maybe even run it has a Hyper-V, which would mean Win 8 or server 2012. That way I could take snapshots before changes and roll back if I didn't like the results. Also I could possibly do a P2V on my current Win 7 machine running MB2 and run them side by side until I get MB3 setup or figure out if I even want it over MB2. My setup if that helps at all is that I have my HTPC setup with my TV and stereo, so it would be the MB3 server and also need to be a client. Then I would like to use say an android tablet (not yet purchased) to remote control this setup with the output going to my TV. I browsed a thread already on that part so I think it can be done.

Redshirt 1487 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Win 8 or Server 2012 is better IMO due to the out-of-the-box support for websockets. Win 7 is fine but the server then requires 2 open ports rather than the 1 single port of a win 8/2012 install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
