Re: Movie Server



Ah, I see.  I did look at getting one of those, but I ended up going for
the
cheaper Hauppage MVP option (I'm sticking to the original disks and a
regular DVD player for the main viewing room - TVs in other rooms will be
fine at lower quality) .

I can't report on how good it is yet because I haven't even unpacked it!
I'm
still doing the CAT5 runs :-)
