Source TV Notes

[Midnight]

Restart Order: Game Server then STV.
If you restart the STV, you likely will have to restart the game server again, the tv doesn't get dropped on the game server and so it will be full with STV tries to connect again. Though sometimes it will work, maybe if enough time has passed and the tv got dropped on the game server.

In command line use +tv_port not -tv_port. The latter doesn't work for some reason.

Make the STV connect to the TV_port on the main game server, not the main game port.

TV_enabled 1 should be set on both the main game server and STV server. Essentially the STV connects to the tv on the main server, so set the tv_maxclients to 1, which allows for 1 STV to connect but no users.

Users should connect to the STV on it's tv_port not the main port.

TV_Delay - you don't need this twice, so set it in the STV config only.
