hi all,
does anyone have any recomendations for media boxes that stream computer content to TVs, pererably hardwired network rather than wireless.
ideally i'm after something that will play video, all usual flavors, xvid, divx etc, mp3, and Jpgs, and doesnt require a lot of work when new files are added to the computer.
an old housemate had a box, i believe it was a d-link or linksys, but this had a few flaws, the main one being that you had to manually show the box everytime you added a file in order for it to become available to watch. it was a first generation product so i'm hoping manufactures have worked out a way around that.
any one got any suggestions around the hundred pound mark?
many thanks,,

It will playback all your requirements and it's easy enough to configure to share folders on your pc.
All the other alternatives are discussed here:

There is no ideal solution as yet. Xbox best I tried (but a bit too big for my rack), so in loft, pensioned off.
