Hi All,

I just installed MyMovies and purchased 1250 points. So far I really like it.

I'm using the concurrent session RDP hack so I can RDP into my media center box and manage it without disrupting the console session. As the mymovies tray is already running under the console session, is there any harm in the mymovies tray starting when I open collection management in the RDP session? Does 2 instances of it running cause (or potentially cause) issues?

Also, is 10-15 seconds normal for opening MM from within media center? It's running on an SSD drive with a movie collection of around 300 titles spread across 3 2tb drives. I'm moving from Media Browser which opens in a second or so on my e8400 w/ 4gb RAM.

thanks
Rob

why are you RDP in to run collection manager?

if you installed on server as "server and client" why not then install on your workstation or whatever as "client" and then tell it server name.

no need to access main machine at all once setup.

Thanks, I tend to miss details like that when I'm tired. I got it in my head that the client/server install was for WHS and had installed standalone. I will fix that tomorrow and install the client on my workstation. In fact I'll completely nuke MM/SQL and re-install directly from the console whereas earlier I installed via RDP. Bet you can't tell I use RDP a lot.

Also, may I ask your approximate load time for MM and whether or not it's running on an SSD?

Thanks
Rob

load time is relative to your system specs

To answer your original question, you cannot stop the tray from running on different user accounts.

It should however not become a problem that it does.
