Windows Media Center + Extenders

Jeff_B · #1 10-12-2007, 04:23 PM

We currently have a hall where we would like to have a large monitor in the front that we use for a primary display. About halfway through the hall we would like to have a second display and a media center extender halfway back in the hall (about 50 feet)

Would it be possible to use the media center extener to display the exact same thing on both monitors?

no. media center extender just allows you to stream content from your media center pc

hmm that seems odd seems like with all the features of being able to see different video on the different monitors you would be able to see the same...

Anyone else try this?

Or does some one have a different solution to display the same video on many monitors?

Simply splitting the video signal from the extender to both displays should work fine.

Video from extender -> Y cable -> Display 1 and 2
