    If you choose Only download required components, proceed to Download Only

    No Internet Connection

    If the PC you are planing to use MediaPortal on does not have access to the internet, you can simply copy the installer to a PC with an internet connection, restart it and select the Only download required components option. The installer will download all necessary components to a folder which you can copy to your media PC after the downloads have finished. Starting the MediaPortal.DeployTool.exe from within this folder it is now possible to install MediaPortal without the need of an internet connection.

    Use TV

    The next question is if you want to watch TV with MediaPortal.

    Choosing Yes will install the TV Server which handles all TV related actions like recording or 
    timeshifting.
