Thanks for the reply,

I have found another mini pc that I am really tempted to get:

Specs are a lot better.

My bro has a Raspberry Pi (and a computer programming degree) - Interesting bit of kit but I am not that tech savvy to make good use of it.

I am happy enough to stream normal SD. Streaming HD channels is not a real concern to me at the mo, as it still glitches when streaming on the lappy.

Do you think the device in the link is capable enough?

Hello,

Been trying to explore ways of getting multi room without buying another box, drilling another hole etc. So far I have been able to stream from my VU+ duo with the built in media server to my laptop with VLC player then use a hdmi cable from the laptop to my TV in the bedroom. However I want instant access and was wondering if this was a viable option:

My Sony TV is already hooked up to my NAS drive where the HDD for my DUO is mounted but the TV does not support the format the media server decodes the channels (.m3u) however the TV can play the TV shows that I have recorded in MPEG2.

I am hoping this will act as a media client to decode the channels from HDD or maybe I could save the media server channel list straight onto the device itself??

What do you reckon?

bump this post, its a good question and any help would be much appreciated.

thanks

used the usb to load the softcam.key to my openbox when it finished i clicked info to check if it had loaded and hey presto it said 'no item found'

what did i do wrong?
