HDMI connections

As some may realise much of Southern Spain has lost UK television with a change of satellite.
The ex pat answer to this is IPTV.
One method is using a proxy server or smart DNS to appear to be in the UK and then using the various players to watch TV via a laptop connected to a television via an HDMI cable.
In another place a so called expert is advising against this as it WILL lead to video card burnout.
I am of the opinion that this is bovine excrement as all that is happening is the transfer of digital signals and nothing is actually being DRIVEN.
Am I right ?
