trusselo 220 Posted April 2, 2015 Author Share Posted April 2, 2015 (edited) emby works fine with the ARC welder on my work laptop, but not my gaming rig. my gaming rig has dual cards, 3 monitors in eyefinity, plus one TV in extended desktop mode. Tried both with crossfire enabled and disabled. NO-GO it is a developer app, in beta so expect it to have bugs and unforeseen issues Edited April 2, 2015 by trusselo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techywarrior 688 Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 What sort of performance are you seeing? Not sure if this will have a big impact on Windows computers because of 7's great app (although that obviously doesn't work for Win7) it may be a great way for Linux and OS X users to get a first class client while waiting for MBT to maybe get ported.

Macburp 109 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 So with ARC Welder, you could run the Android App on a Chromebox. Not sure how you would control that with a remote (an air mouse?), but it would be an awesome set-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
