Below is a short guide on how to setup network tuners in Windows 8.1 this functionality is unsupported by Ceton.

Both PCs

1. Download and install the following driver (Ceton InfiniTV Installer (1.5.4304.06-20111017) for Windows 7: http://www.cetoncorp.com/firmware/ceton_infinitv_setup_20111017_1_5_4304_06.exe) to both Windows 8.1 PC. I can’t guarantee that other drivers will work.

Host PC

(This part lifted from http://www.missingremote.com/guide/ceto ... ltiple-pcs)

2. My Computer -> Device Manager -> Network Adapters -> Ceton InfiniTV Network Device -> Right Click Properties -> Advanced -> Support Bridging -> Yes

3. Download and install the latest Ceton Windows 8.1 driver.

4. Open InfiniTV device page via the diagnostic tool or go to 192.168.200.1

5. System -> Network Settings -> Uncheck Automatic Default IP Settings (DHCP Server).

6. Set a static IP that works for your network. You should check your router to make sure that you assign an IP that is not in use. For example, most routers will assign network devices IP addresses starting with 192.168.1.XXX. If you assign let’s say 192.168.1.101, you will eventually access the InfiniTV device page via that IP address.

7. Network Connections -> Select both InfiniTV and your networking card -> Right click Bridge Connection

8. Test to make sure you can access your device page using the static IP you assigned with both computers.

9. Start > Windows Media Center > Ceton InfiniTV > Network Turns> Setup InfiniTVs. Follow the setup prompts and select the turns you want to be available to that Host PC.

10. Go back to the main menu of Windows Media Center> Tasks> Settings > TV > TV Signal > TV Setup. Follow the on screen prompts. Once you get to TV Signal Detection Result select “No, show more options” then select “Let me configure my TV signal manually” continue to follow on screen prompts to the TV Tuner selection and only select the turns that you want the client PC to be able to access. (This should be the same as the ones you selected in step 8.)

Client PC

11. Download and install the latest Ceton Windows 8.1 driver.

12. Start > Windows Media Center > Ceton InfiniTV > Network Turns> Setup InfiniTVs. Follow the setup prompts and select the turns you want to be available to that client PC.

13. Go back to the main menu of Windows Media Center> Tasks> Settings > TV > TV Signal > TV Setup. Follow the on screen prompts. Once you get to TV Signal Detection Result select “No, show more options” then select “Let me configure my TV signal manually” continue to follow on screen prompts to the TV Tuner selection and only select the turns that you want the client PC to be able to access. (This should be the same as the ones you selected in step 11.)

Enjoy watching TV on both your Host and client PCs.
