Yep, my current setup is a machine next to the TV which is on when needed, a laptop I use for development and the record server in the loft which is on 24x7. I've not had any problems while using different version of freevo and I've only just updated to the latest 1.7 branch, I haven't tried 1.8 yet. The 1.7 branch is still using the XML HTTP interface, where as the 1.8 is using the kaa.rpc.
