[QUOTE="Anthony Vaughan, post: 1140543, member: 153283"] Hello I have installed Media Portal 1.11 server on a Windows 8 machine using SQL Server as the database. I also installed the client on that machine so I could test MediaPortal. I installed the client on a Windows 8.1 machine and declared the server in the Configuration application and tested the connection successfully. However, when I run MediaPortal on the client machine and try to view the guide, the TV Set-up page comes up asking me "Please specify the IP address or host name". I am new to MediaPortal - I have been a Windows Media Center user for years - and would appreciate any advice about why the configuration might be connecting okay but I cannot use MediaPortal remotely. Thanks you in advance. Tony [/QUOTE]
