    1How do I watch TV from a client PC?
    Copy the URL that the application displays. Open Windows Media Player and choose
    open URL. Paste the URL in and click Open/OK. If you are behind a NAT Router(LinkSYS)
    the URL is for your internal network only. For this situation you need to obtain the public
    IP address on your NAT router and replace the IP address in the URL with your public address.

    2How do I change the channel remotely?
    You either build your own private ASP web page or application using the provided
    SimplerRemote.dll or, you can use the web page provided within this site. There is one
    sample ASP Page provide with the DLL.
    3I get an error trying to use my ATI AIW Radeon, why?
    You might want to contact ATI on this one.
    Check out this url http://www.ati.com/support/infobase/3692.html for more details.
    Since you are getting this problem, they might have a beta, or new
    driver out for customers experiencing this error.
    4I am using a NAT Router or a firewall, how do I get it to work?
    For NAT enabled routers you must forward the port that you choose to broadcast over
    and port 100. For instance the snap shot above shows broadcasting over port 21, you would have to forward all your
    incoming traffic for port 21 and 100 to your internal machine ip address.
    For firewalls you must allow these two same ports to pass through your firewall.
    Port 100 is used for changing the channel remotely.
