hi,

i have tried doing this with my wii but can seem to get the audio and video parts to work properly....the wii just sits there showing the first frame of a video and then times out (after having the lttle circle thing going around for a while). any suggestions?

Did you make sure that you went into settings on the website and changed the streaming format to flash

Wow. I have to try this. I have a lot of movies on my computer that I feel upset I can't watch on my big glorious big screen.

i have been checking through my settings and was wondering, when you view the Orb settings via your Wii, in the 'more' section, does yours give you your public IP or the IP of your PC on your LAN? i am just wondering if this should be the PC's LAN IP since im using the Directstream setup. instead i see my public IP...

yes. as far as i can see, i have all the settings that are shown in the video/tutorials. photos and the file browser work fine. its just the music and videos....
