I've not installed mediaportal yet but heard that you can use it to stream live tv over wifi to other pc's networked in the house?

Is this true?

    You can connect to the TV server from anywhere you want, yes. It doesn't matter if it's WiFi, LAN or WAN, as long as you can establish the connection (and have enough bandwidth).

    Definitely ;). What you need to consider now is whether you only set up a dedicated TV server, or a single-seat machine to which another client connects and which hardware to use (unless you already got everything you need).

    @CyberSimian Sorry, I missed your last post. I ended up doing a clean install on the client and all is well now. It still doesn't let me go back in time when I change channels but it does continue operating from that point on. I'm ok with that. Thanks for your help! EDIT: I now downgraded the server (as I did with the client above)...

    Thank you for this tip! I'm moving MP TV Server to a new machine. I installed the 64-bit version and most of the MP firewall rules were set to Public. I couldn't connect to the new TV Server from my old single-seat installation running 32-bit until I changed all MP-related firewall rules on the new machine to Private. Before I did...

    I meant use MP client to try to spot how it's requesting streams for specific channels and then try to do the same with VLC. TV Server development looks dead so I'm afraid you're going to have to figure that out by yourself if it's even possible.
