Smart tvs. How to display computer without having it near it.

[newpersn]

We just had a new library built and installed 2 smart tvs (LG and samsung) the LG came from the old library.

 

Both telly's are plugged in to network. (Only one network port behind the tellys)

 

Is there a way I can stick a computer hidden away and out of sight that I can use to display stuff the computers?

Yep get something like a mini-ITX PC and use the HDMI output to the Smart TV Edited June 4, 2014 by ass17

Forget the network for data use and use it to send hdmi over Ethernet to the tv using a balun and then the computers can be anywhere you want.

I can't mount anything to back of the Tvs (the wall bracket is using the mount)

 

I was looking at vga/hdmi over cat5 but there only 1 cable and it plugged in to telly. Also I think the run is too long.

we use HDMI over Ethernet Sender and multiple receiver boxes behind each TV.

We also use HDMI over cat5 for our hall projector, the run is about 40mtrs.

Would I be able to run 2 tvs off 1 sender?

[ass17]

We have one sender and 6 receivers. To run best quality picture and/or video we make sure that the sender and receivers are on Gigabit switch ports.

Yes.
