Media Extender versions?

[JimmyM]

I'm supposed to run the same SageTVclient version as the server with which it is connected. Correct?
So what about the Media Extender? Isn't it just a dedicated SageTVclient? How would I upgrade the extender version?

The MVP extender is part of the SageTV installation, so once you install a SageTV upgrade, the MVP extender is also updated.

Edit: After upgrading SageTV, you should unplug your MVP for a little while, then plug it in again. Using the power button on the remote no longer turns it completely off, so a full power cycle is needed.

MVP Extender? Isn't that a Hauppauge product?
I mean this... http://www.sagetv.com/extender.html
If you mean the SageTV Extender... So. If I upgrade the SageTV server... the Extender is updated automatically via network?

The MVP is the hardware used as the extender. There is nothing to do to upgrade it other than do the full power cycle after installing the SageTV update.
