I've streamed .mkv movies from my media server downstairs to my TV upstairs and they haven't missed a beat.

I love this shit.

Cool, streaming hi def porno to be bedroom. You'd better make sure the kids aren't running any DLNA receivers in their rooms!

Re: apple tv
 

All porn is kept on a 'special', non-networked USB drive.

Can't be too careful.

Yehp me too.... Although when I did my reno I smart wired 5 of my 7 rooms. Guess what the back bloody room needed two connections. One for a games console and one for Fetch TV. So I've whacked in one of these power line adapters. Somehow or other I missed our bedroom and some of the previous stuff could be useful. I may try running two power line adapaters at the same time. Luckily I got them for free when I upgraded my Foxtel box...(for nix) and when I ordered Fetch TV.

Will report back as to whether you can actually run two seperate power line adapaters in one household. They are different brands so that may help.

I am considering purchasing the apple tv device. If I want to watch tv from the uk will I need to use a VPN? Also, does anyone have a Telstra t box - if so is it any good.
Thanks

Re: apple tv
 

If you want to watch live TV you most probably will. I take it you dont have an Xbox or PS3 ? As they both can double as media servers..... As long as your willing to leave your computer (box) on that is.

Technology is changing rapidly in this area, so hang off as long as possible and work with what you have if you can wait.

Re the T Box are Telstra already your ISP ?

Update, the US version of the Western Digital TV Live arrived!

I used unblock-us to give it a US IP address, subscribed to Hulu Plus using a super secret dodgy system, PM me for details. I've also got a premium Spotify account.

So the WDTV Live not only plays all my saved movies and TV shows but I can listen to Spotify and watch Hulu plus, it's great! Loads better than my old Netgear EVA9000 which seems like a sack of shit in comparison.

Re: apple tv
 

Thanks Ozzie. I do not have an x box, only have a wii and ps2. Telstra is my Internet provider.

Re: apple tv
 

Looks like you can use the T box as a Media Server as well, (That means it can play direct from your computer, media you have downloaded)

So on that basis it's probably worthwhile and does the things they are talking about re the WD HD TV and Apple TV.

Re: apple tv
 

PM sent.

The latest firmware update for my WDTV has added an ABC iview widget, which is great. I also love the way you can wirelessly link Youtube to your mobile, therefore making searching for content much easier (using the remote is a pain).

For the isheeple interested in getting Apple TV, DSE have it for $109 with $20 of itunes:

Just ordered my first Raspberry Pi - $62 delivered for the computer, case and SD card with OS installed. 10 week delivery unfortunately and RS would only let me buy one.
