It is expected that the next major release will allow you to "stream" tv to another PC.

This is a major breakthrough and well worth having a network for - as it means you can effectively have a media portal "Server" which has your TV cards and big disk etc and another machine in another room which picks up the TV signal over your (wireless) network.

Great for getting TV where you dont have an aerial socket or TV in multiple rooms.

I've setup my HDHomeRun in MP1 as (4) IPTV cards rather than Atsc. I can see the (4) Atsc cards, but just have them disabled. I did it this way so I didn't have to edit the channel names every time tested a new TV-server install. Anyway, it works. I don't know if this would get you past the BDA driver issue. I'll provide more...

I think therein lies my problem. I am on 1.6.2.0. So thanks both for your help, I will pause this thread for now and come back to it while I work out what to do next. The problem is we have a family member who relies on MiniDisplay and I don't know if upgrading the set up is going to spoil compatibility with that plug in. The set up...

Result, it works on the two PC's we use for watching TV :D I've not lost anything by the looks of it either, all channels etc still setup. Just my office PC won't connect, which I only use for testing things anyway (I tried updating that this morning as well), but I'll uninstall and install fresh on that. PS. Exported all settings...
