I've recently installed a MyHD MDP-120 in my media server/recording box. (I intend to play recorded files back through an old MDP-100 in another machine.) I'd like to be able to set the 120's recording schedule ("reservations") from the second computer.
Since both machines run WinXPPro, remote desktop seemed the way to go. But the MyHD app frequently crashes when accessed remotely - and after the first crash, crashes immediately on subsequent attempts to run it remotely - even though it runs fine if I schlep down to the media server and work directly, and goes back to running okay remotely for a while after I do the direct access.
Has anyone had success doing something like I'm trying to do? Any hints as to how to set things up?
