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

    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...
