Mediaportal runs fine on my PC, I can watch my videos... But how do I go about reading these videos from my TV ? what are the networking requirements ?

Thanks, but is there a way to network this ? My Mediaportal PC is located in the basement...
I've been reading up on HDMI 1.4 and ethernet, is that feasible ?

    Options:
    * another Client near to your TV
    * Wlan HDMI (never tried it, i guess you will loose quality)
    * when you have SmartTV than you have maybe also an option

    As above

    - Move MePo PC to lounge
    - Client PC in the lounge
    - HDMI extender. You can get 10m with a long HDMI cable any longer than this and the signal isn't strong enough.
    For longer distances you can get an HDMI signal amplifier or an HDMI-Ethernet (Cat5e) adapter, or an HDMI wireless adapter.

    SmartTV - This will not be an option with MP1, but when MP2 is complete it will support uPNP/DLNA so you can connect a DLNA/uPNP enabled TV to MP2 over the network

    Ok, so perhaps a solution, but not the "right" solution. On the client, within media portal configuration, under TV settings, advanced options, I switched to UNC paths instead of the default RSS, and it's working very well. Sure I had to figure out the paths, but no big deal. Maybe helpful for someone in the future. Thanks for the...

    It's getting weirder..... If I remove all the IP cards in the TVServer setup and then add them back I can scan the M3u and tune the stations but if I rescan it on the same card it just keeps updating the 1 channel. My brain is melting.........
