[QUOTE="2BitSculptor, post: 687140, member: 65661"] I wouldn't know if this is correct, as I have a dedicated HTPC for media portal. Using a second monitor in another room (If your PC supports 2 monitors) is do-able. but not very efficient. You would have focus issues between the two rooms. While you are using the pc, the viewers watching MP may not be able to control MP, until focus is returned to MP, or if they steal focus while you are working on some other program, you may not like the results. I would recommend picking up a good quality mini computer to use as a dedicated MP HTPC and set up a network to share your media. There are some good discussions on what to buy and how to set them up in the Hardware section of the forum. - Chuck [/QUOTE]
