Hello,
I am trying to turn my one of my older computers (not this one) into a somewhat-like MCE Extender by using MP. I have 2 tuner cards on my Media Center, but none on my older computer. I am hopeing that by using MP on my older computer that I can connect somehow to my MCE computer and access the tuner cards to stream content to my older pc. Basically, I am asking if I can turn MP into a MCE Extender, so I can watch live tv in another room, just like a real MCE Extenter. I am also currious if I can get my "guide" from media center into MP so i can sceduel recordings and record them on media center. Also I am curious if i can somehow import my recordings from my media center into my recorded TV section in MP. I can import them into My Videos, but I would like them under the Recorded TV section in MP. Any help on these questions would be great. Thanks in advance. Brian
