I've finally got my computer to talk to my TV, something which before I 'upgraded' happened natively and now doesn't.
I had to install something called "Plex", which works but is something of a nightmare to set up. Getting the two things to admit they both saw the same IP address was an uphill struggle.
Reading the "help" sections on their website, I discover that the files have to be named in a particular way in order to show up properly. This will involve me in a huge undertaking to rename and reorder my video and some audio files to make the best use of the software.
This is a huge undertaking. I have around 600 video files of one sort or another and they'll all need work. Needless to say, I view this as a bit of a nightmare job. It'll take me hours of work.
Stupid computers.
