  • do you need to have your wii connected to a computer for playon to work?

  • Sort of. The Wii has to be on the same local network as the computer running playon. In my video you can see that I selected "XP-Desktop" which is the name of my computer running the playon server program.

  • ohhh so does the computer have to be on when your whatching movies and whatnot? and does it work with laptops?

  • Yep, the computer is downloading the video and sending it to your Wii. It doesn't matter if it is a laptop or a desktop.

    One of the devices (the Wii or the computer) should be connected directly to the router. It doesn't work well if both are using wireless.

    HOW DOD I SIGN OFF A NETFLIX ON A WII

  • and ur internet is slow

  • dude u type slow

  • No, playon.tv is not free -- it's free to TRY and then there's a monthly subscription fee. Also, if you have a bluray player with netcast, this is completely useless, because netcast automatically comes with netflix, pandora radio, and another app called divx tv that gives you a lot of public domain tv blips, like adult swim and comedy central ...

  • Is it free?

  • What about watching R rated movies? You have to login to Hulu, and there doesn't seem to be a way to enter user name and password through your Wii. Any suggestions?

  • Hey! How did you get Wii picture to looks so good? I have my wii connected with the AV inputs that came with the system. Are you running a Wii2HD converter?

  • This is LAME compared to the PS3 wow thats is SLOOOOWWW! Selling my Wii and buying another PS3 for the living room.!!!

  • that's cool, thanks... no need to download and waste blocks on the wii
