Neither does a real front end unless you export the video directory from the back end server and mount it on the font end. If these are mpeg2's then you can export them from the back end and mount them on the mvpmc box. The "hot buttons" on the larger Hauppauge remotes should jump you into pre-defined directories in the mvpmc's directory space: > (from: http://mvpmc.wikispaces.com/menus.filesystem) > > File System Path Remote Button > /mvpmc_media/tv TV > /mvpmc_media/music Music > /mvpmc_media/videos Videos > /mvpmc_media/radio Radio > /mvpmc_media/pictures Pictures If they are not mpeg2's then you can probably do some fancy stuff with Video Lan Client. ...have fun ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
