    Streaming video on BV10

    What would be the best easy way to stream video (DVD, avi, etc formats) to BV10 with minimal usage of cables and equipment via Computer or external player?

    Suggest to use mediaplayer like Twix or Apple TV. Connect with HDMI.

    Hi,

    I use a PS3 slim on STb bracket with HDMI cable of course and RE-BL (infrared to bluetooth converter) on PUC 1.

    You can't have easyest than that : access to blu-ray, DVD, internet, USB port...via the Beo4.

    I reckon it's a mess on the back, but i never look on the back, I prefer the screen !

    I used a "hacked" Apple TV with Boxee. I don't like the user Boxee interface too much, Apple does a better job here, but for me it works OK connecting to my NAS.

    What I love about this, even though Boxee runs on the ATV it still can serve up music in the back when controlled through Iphone or Itouch or Ipad remote. 

    So in a nutshell, I am using the core ATV as a music player that syncs with my Itunes and for video boxee. Very neat solution even though the ATV is considered underpowered and overdue for an update.

     

    Cheers

    WD TV live HD....

    Pros: Cheap and plays almost everything. Hook it up to external HD of own choice. Plays 1080p mkv files flawlessly

    Cons: No STB controller as far as i know...not yet anyway..!

    See this is why the ATV is so brilliant. I use my Beo 4, that works with Boxee as well. Also I have the option to use my ipod touch or now IPAD.

    My dealer says that Struer is preparing the codes for WD TV. Don´t know when they will update the PUC list though.
