-If we link back Mac address to our donation number again, is the m3u playlist not going to work anymore ?
-Or will it not work until we save Mac address to 0s again ?
-So we are unable to play from our Mag 254 and VLC on our p.c. at the same time ?
I think you can relink your MAC as soon as you get your Playlist from the server. The Mag may just give you an error message thou when trying to connect the Mag to server. ( I have not tested that)
You can then use the Playlist method to watch TV on the Mag or use the MAC method to watch TV on your Mag...
But do not take that Playlist to another device and try and use it while your Mag is also being used (MAC method or Playlist method).
Do not do that or your code will stop working altogether, and you will be messed up
Use that Playlist on any other device you want, as long as the Mag is turned off.
The rule still is, One Device at a Time
