Also not sure about your level of linux knowledge, but I will assume it is on beginner level, in this case i would recommend you to install ubuntu as OS (or a derivative) tvh can easily be installed under ubuntu. I have personally tried emby and plex and at this moment I would recommend to go for plex if any of the 2.

Yes, you're right, I'm a beginner in Linux, but I don't find it difficult. The hardware on my server is as follow: CPU Intel e6420 @2.13ghz (4mb cache), Ram ddr2 4gb Corsair, video card ati 4870 (1 gb ram). With Plex I've the same problem, it doesn't recognize the m3u list.

I totally agree with Robert, please start another threat and don't hijack mine, thanks!
