MCE Buddy - and watching Recorded TV from a remote machine

Anyone familiar with setting up MCE Buddy? I installed it on a remote machine so as to keep any processing off my Media Center PC. When watching a network folder it cautions I need to "Ensure MCEBuddy service uses a user account that has local administrative access and access to teh remote file [Control Panel-> Administrative Tools -> Services -> MCEBuddy]"

I do not have any passwords on any of my Windows 7 accounts and am able to access files in my Recorded TV folder without logging in. MCE Buddy does not seem to do anything with the files in my watched "Recorded TV" folder so maybe I need to do something relating to the Control Panel as described in the MCEBuddy SW.

You may still need to indicate the user account name on your MC PC. You'll find detailed configuration info on the MCE buddy webpage. If those don't answer your question, post the question on that board.
