Hi

Is it possible to stream from a server (Single seat) to another PC/Laptop, into VLC?

I dont want to be able to change channels etc like you can with MyTV Client. I just want to be able to view what is being played on the HTPC, but in a different room.

I see that MYTV Client uses VLC, but it looks like the stream changes its number everytime you connect, so I dont know how to just connect from VLC itsself instead of using the Client.

Any Ideas?

    Hi,

    My understanding is that you need to manually tune in a channel using the Manual Control section of the TV Server Configuration tool, and then grab the URL from there before opening the stream in VLC each time. Kind of tricky if you're on a different machine: I use VNC to do this which seems to do the job. On the whole, quite clunky, but it's the only way I can use my Mac to watch live TV.
