[QUOTE="Wizard_TPG, post: 295026, member: 59021"] ok guys, The situation I would think is not all that uncommon. I have a LCD in my living room which currently has a mediaportal machine hooked to it and it does just about everything for me. Its set up with webepg, movies, tv episodes, hdtv recording, etc, etc I am looking at solutions to take this data and stream it to my plasma in my bedroom. One option I am looking at is a separate mediaportal machine. So now for the questions: For the purposes of these questions lets call the bedroom the remote unit and the living area the current unit. 1) Can the remote unit access the tv card on the current unit to watch tv and set recordings? 2) Can the remote unit watch tv that has been recorded on the current unit? 3) Can the database for videos, tv episodes, music on the current unit be accessed by the remote unit. ie. already specified imdb info, watched flags, etc, etc 4) Using a draft-n wifi network, would streaming be ok? 5) Would mediaportal HAVE to be running on the current unit for the remote unit to access its facilities (or just the server components)? Thx in advance guys :) [/QUOTE]
