    First, thanks to all who have contributed to many a days worth of reading on this site. Very informational and helpful as well as fun!

    I was wanting to get some ideas/suggestions on what would be the best way to configure my equipment to stream to view movies on 3 different tv's from one location? I have moderate technical knowledge and can thumb through most anything if it is written. Here is the equipment I have:

    Windows XP pc - 3.2 ghz P4 processer, geoforce 7950 gt vid card, 2g ram, wired linksys router

    Living Room - 50" plasma, HT Reciever (HDMI, DTS all the goodies), digital cable dvr hd box, upscale dvd player, xbox 360 wired to router, 500g portable hard drive

    Our bedroom - 32" lcd digital cable dvr hd box, upscale dvd player, wdtv live

    Kids room - 24" lcd, dvd player, wdtv

    My goal is again to pull all movies to all 3 tvs from one place. I watch alot of 720p, 1080p mkv files as well as xvid .avi's. I have the capability to easily wire anything underneath the house. What would be the ideal config???

    I can purchase a limited amount of extra equipment if needed. Please help and thanks in advance!!!!

    Hi, Looks like what you want done can be done but you will need some cabling and rf remotes to run the box from the central location. I really think your best bet is to get wdtv's for all the rooms then have a central hdd to store all the content. Thats the way I do it and it works great, just make sure you use a wired network instead of trying to do this all wirelessly. Hope this helps you out.

    Cheers!
