Quick question

I want to run a single seat setup. So that will allow me to use the HTPC as the server and as a client right? Basically I want to run MP in my living room for my TV, and also have it be a server so that I can use my computer as a client in my bedroom. I'm just a little confused by the diagram in the PDF.

Hi

The diagram represents a perfect world example, but in reality you can run the Server and Client on the same box in your living room. In your bedroom you would then just run the client and point it at your living-room box.

Cheers
