Before you install ARGUS TV Scheduler, you will need to install database server software. Your options are, Microsoft SQL, or MySQL. We recommend Microsoft SQL Express.
If you have previously installed MediaPortal TV Server it will have installed MySQL. In this case there is no need to install other database server software.
Nevertheless keep in mind, that if you may encounter having response speed issues, especially opening or performing complex Recording or Suggestion Plans in ARGUS TV, you may speed up the whole system by deciding to mutate to MS-SQL. Users of MediaPortal TV Server then have to re-setup their TV Server configuration (re-install using MS-SQL).
Mainly, for the use with ARGUS TV, the usage of MS-SQL is recommended.
MediaPortal installs MySQL with the following user name and password.
