EPG123 server or client?

Looking to switch to the epg123 and read the install manual and am confused with the scheduled guide update and option server.client,or full. I use one main machine with two xboxes as extenders.
Thanks

In your case, you will want the Full Mode (both server and client on same machine).

The server part strictly downloads the data from Schedules Direct and creates the mxf file that will be imported. The client part strictly imports the mxf file into the WMC database and performs any channel/listing matching as required.
