Hi
I was woundering if there is software out there that would turn a laptop into an MPV client. When you look at what an MPV is it's a laptop just beefed up version and has all the hardware components of an MPV client +plus. I have an old laptop and instead of buying a MPV client then plugging that into a wireless network box, I could just sit my laptop next to the Tv in the bedroom and connect via s-video and bang away you go ?
It would be cool to have a GBPVR client interface that would connect to a main GBPVR server and run multiple clients ?? with some restrictions mainly for live TV, but if you had multiple tuners you could allocate one per session. even from a handhelp pc ?
Kool eh !!
should this be in the "wish list" topic ?
cheers
