hi peeps

I am looking for something that I can stream movies from my pc upstairs, to my telly downstairs. I am all wifi'd up. Any suggestions?

I have been looking at apple tv, but want to stay away from them

I use a laptop.

If you have an Xbox you can mod that.

There are quite a lot of "media adaptors", or streamers, on the market. I used to have a D-Link Media Lounge at one point, but there are loads more. Philips do them, Avermedia and Netgear are also names that spring to mind.

have a look at the Dvico TViX M5100SH www.dvico.com I am having fun setting mine up. It is attached by lan or wireless, can have an internal sataII hard drive, has two usb host sockets so you can add additional external usb hard drives for increased storage, and outputs hdmi from almost any file. You can also customise the background screen when searching your folders to feature, say the dvd cover picture of a movie.

You might try the Freecom Mediaplayer?, a friend of mine lent me one (full of HD films), it worked great, it's very small, and it's easy to use.
