Hi,

I want to connect my PC with my TV so that the build-in MediaPlayer of my Tv can play the Files as I would connect a USB-HD to the TV.

Is that possible?


I don't want to play the Files with a MediaPlayer on my PC and Connect it through hdmi or sth to the TV!!!


Thank you for all the Answers :)

Thank you :)


Seems nice, but how does it works?

Lika a mdp server?

So I have to connect my TV via Lan in my LAN?


Any other thoughts?


EDIT: It would be great if I could connect it VIA USB because over RJ5 would be a bit difficult :(
