I'm running windows media center with an infinitv 4 pcie card on a windows 7 pro 64 bit pc. This is working. (Works with remote potato and media buddy.)
I set up my port forwarding and the test from mymedia center configuration came back positive after I added the portforwarding in my router for port 5832.
My tablet (samsung series 7 xe700t1a-a04us, running windows 8 pro) has the mymedia center app on it. When I start the app on my tablet, it connects to my windows 7 pc and it finds all my programs.
When I press play on a program on my tablet, it doesn't play on my tablet. Instead it plays on my computer where the recording resides. Having re-read the product description it appears this app is ONLY designed to play this on my media center server in the basement or my xbox, if and only if, my xbox is on, and that I cannot actually playback the shows on my tablet like I had hoped.
Is this correct? Or, is there a way to play content from my infinitv computer on my tablet?
