You must connect the video out (eg. HDMI) from your PC to your TV.
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...

Thank's,
I had already disabled the option in MP. Anyway, last night, after several tests, I suddenly hooked up the correct frequency. Honestly I've done dozens of tests and so I don't know what is the thing that unlocked the problem, but now it works.

Oh no. That's not good news. It looks like this is going to be complicated.
OnlineVideos won't let us record, so that isn't going to work on this occasion, but I do like the information you have given on Online Videos because I have tried and failed to understand the wiki on that. I will remember this for future use.
In the meantime...
