[mythtv-users] General Set-Up Question

[Robert McIntosh]

Hi,

Please excuse me for what may be an obvious question, but I am new to 
the PVR experience.

I anticipate setting up a PVR server in my basement.  The TV is on the 
main floor.  I have a cable jack next to the server, so it will be 
connected to the TV service.

My question is, if the machine that is serving as the MythTV server is 
not located next to the television, will I need some sort of device next 
to the TV in order to control the MythTV server?  A thin client of sorts?

What would you suggest if I need a thin client?

Thanks,
Robert
