Posted October 25, 200717 yr Hey guys, I want to be able to stream all my media (primarily video) to my TV located in my living room from my PC. I have a free ethernet socket near my PC, which is connected, through my network, to another near my TV. I don’t want/need wireless connectivity either. Can anyone vouch for or suggest a product? nedlands1 [WC] Specialist (Combat Engineer) http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/52/US_Army_E-4_SPC.svg/50px-US_Army_E-4_SPC.svg.png [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
October 25, 200717 yr Do you want to use your TV as a monitor? So you can just play stuff on your PC and watch it on your telle? Edited October 25, 200717 yr by Hyphen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8jHy0BdZGw Choper is the man
October 25, 200717 yr I have a PS3 connected to my TV. Wireless connection from my PC to my PS3 and I use Tversity. This media server is pretty easy to use and will convert stuff on the PC and stream to the PS3. Other option I would recommend is a Zensonic Z500, mate of mine has one and says they work really well on a network. PS3 of course has HDMI out though where the Zensonic doesn't. http://users.on.net/ericb/EricB_sig.png

October 26, 200717 yr i went to a games place, purchased a second hand xbox console. got the console modded, then put on xbox media centre.. works a treat.. i even have dolby surround thanks to the optical out adapter on the xbox. before that i used a dlink dsm-320 media server.. it was ok, but i had some trouble with tricky codecs. Episodes you download off the net played fine on it. its sitting in a draw, want to buy it off me? http://www.dlink.com/products/?pid=318 http://img167.imageshack.us/img167/7281/solotm6.png (@AncientMan) why is it that every time see the words solo|work, the bulge in my pants grows bigger and bigger then gets wet?
