Whats the easiest way of having my desktop cloned onto an iPad?

I can obviously download MC17 onto iPad and use it as a client, Windows PC as server plugged into my TV.

But sometimes i may for instance play a video file, and it pops up with a message (on my tv) that needs to be clicked on before the video can play, this message means i would have to get up, go to my mouse to click on it, but if my desktop was cloned i could do it all from iPad.

Cheers!

I use spashtop remote:

In addition to providing a remote desktop, its so fast I can play anything in my mc library on the ipad with it.

I've also had good success in controlling Windows/MC with Splashtop remote on an ipad. The screen refresh is pretty good. I mostly use it to control MC in theaterview whilst the TV is turned off as I prefer to listen to music without the screen distraction (although occasionally the fanart is interesting in playing now - eg. whilst playing something by the artist Seal ).

I can also schedule TV recordings on it whilst Ivy B is watching normal TV.

I haven't tried to watch a movie or route the audio to the ipad though, but I may try it after )p('s report!. I simply use it as a 'controlling surface' for the PC.
