swindmiller 5 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I am thinking of switching from MyMovies to MB. I already have Server and Classic installed and working. Can I install Theater on the same machine to try it out? I use Media Center for live TV and recording so I assume I want Classic w/Media Center. Theater would not do live TV, right?

Luke 37100 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Yes you can. Theater does not yet support live tv but it is being worked on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swindmiller 5 Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 Thanks for the fast reply. I like the look of Theater but don't want to loose the functionality. I will try out Theater and keep my eye out for Live TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmac 132 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Square theme is very similar to MBT, although I find it doesn't look quite as polished. I think it's the large fonts, and dark gray backgrounds that make it seem a little too "in your face". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aspdend 174 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I use MBC on my htpc for day to day use as the themes and functionality have a high WAF. I also have MBT installed on the same machine, but use it only rarely if I am having a specific issue on MBC (with a theme not working or something similar) and need to keep the wife happy watching something until I can sort out MBC. I am hoping that when MBT is more mature and more themes are available I will be able to switch over entirely to that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally we use ROC, but when there are issues with ROC (like the recent jerkyness in coverflow view) we use NEO... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 14925 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Just FYI - neo has not been updated with any of the new MB3 features (chapters, specials, user switching, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
