I have 2 PC's with MP installed. I have some movie ISO files on one PC. Is there a way through media portal for the other PC to access those same video's?

Hi there
Assuming network between them, you can just add the network location as a video folder.
example: \\pcname\sharename\FolderWithIsos
I you wnt to take it a step further and even share the MP databases, look at this page in manual. Not recommended for beginner.

Thank you for your reply. I had tried this but it was not working so I assumed I was not doing this correctly. I uninstalled MP, than reinstalled/configured MP and now it works.
