I'm getting frustrated, so am consulting the hive mind, please help!
Having got a new tv, sony bravia kdl-46v5500 I've been bowled over by its abilty to be hooked to the home network and have stuff like music, photos and video streamed to it from the pc. Very cool. Photos and music were easy...videos harder. I've been trying various media server software and had growing success
media play 11 - very few files work
twonky - still very few
TVersity...sounded brilliant but doesn't work with bravias!! (I've checked the tversity forum - known problem) the TV doesn't see the server
and now wildmediaplayer - considerable success! BUT although it can transcode and stream mopst stuff it isn't doing i-player, I guess the encryption is preventing it. The TV either says 'cannot see server, check server settings' or it sees the downlaoded file but says 'playback unavailable' grrrrr!
I've checked the wildmediaserver forum...seems no one can get iplayer going yet.
anything else I can try?
I love the sound of Tversity....I'd even pay for the pro version....if it bl00dy worked with Bravias!
Right. So. Anyone know a way of streaming iplayer content from the pc (or direct from the website) to my tv? I'm going to get a PS3 shortly but this shold be possible without the PS3 acting as a media extender....I can stream most stuff straight to the TV over the gigabit ethernet cable.....help please.
Thanks,
Neil
