[QUOTE="itayl2, post: 815344, member: 117024"] Hi! So initially, when I installed MediaPortal, I installed it using the "I will not use MediaPortal to watch TV" option, since I am not connecting it to any TV card / TV service - it is strictly for local media files. When I was finished, I realized I'd like MediaPortal to stream to other computers in my home network, so I reviewed the info in the site and noticed this might be an option. When I read through, it seems like only TV streaming is possible. Could someone answer some of my questions so that I'll be clear about this? 1. Can I also stream local media files using Media Portal? 2. If yes, do I need to re-install the current MediaPortal using the other option? Could you please elaborate? Essentially, my setup is this: 1 computer containing all the media files and running the centralized MediaPortal system and is also used for viewing. 2 computers that should only be used for viewing the material from the previously mentioned computer, meaning, streaming the media over to them using MediaPortal. Help?? Thanks a bunch!!! :) [/QUOTE]
