Hi there I am running the latest version of Mediaportal on two Windows 7 PCs (one as a stand alone and the other as a client).
The two are connected by a gigabit switch.
Things have been up and running for a while now for a while without any problem but I am now getting the message "unable to play stream ..." when I try and play anything on the client, though I can load up the EPG.
I did have this problem a while back whilst the client was connected via wireless (I had to change my router settings) but I cannot understand why this problem has come back when I am using Cat5e cabling.
I have had a look on this forum and there seem to be at least two potential solutions:
1. Turn off IPV6 on the client machine.
2. Go into the TV Server Configuration and change the streaming server IP address from Auto to an actual IP address.
I would be really grateful to know which of these methods I should use (or indeed both or even another solution).
Thanks very much.
