flower I can't even get DVDs to play back using my wireless G router less alone HD. If I'm lucky I get about a minute before everything starts to get choppy.




Stupid wireless.

Those pictures are my home theater setup. The last two are studios that use the professional version of the S-150. The S-150s are a great home theater speaker that will get way louder than I would think anyone would want.

That's halarious. It is an expensive alarm clock at that.

The guy paid good money for his ROKU he can complain all he wants. I actually got a Roku for free but seeing the way the box works I would be a little pissed off too if I paid good money for the thing. The idea of viewing all of your photos, HDTV content, music, and DVD stored on your computer is a ...

I must be an idiot because I don't know how to install this program. Is there like an idiot guide to getting this program to work?

I have a few DVD movies on my harddrive that I want to stream to my TV in another room wirelessly. I have a Linksys WRT54GS router (802.11G with speed booster) and an 802.11G PCI card on my computer (WMP54GS). When I go to view a DVD it gets really jerky and freezes only a few seconds in to the film...

You guys are awesome. Thanks a lot.

First off I have to say I have been very impressed with Mplay and even the built in Roku player is getting a lot better. However, with this in mind how come no one has devoloped software that plays DVD's on my hard drive just like a standard player would read the DVD (menus, several audio tracks, ch...

Well I've only used the new beta briefly but all I have to say is, "Wow." This is a very nice program indeed. I hope Roku is taking notice because you guys are doing some really really kick ass stuff.

Probably a bad idea to tell folks this but I would pay for something like this, and I'm betting some other folks would too.

Your right I would pay for that software. Assuming that software did everything you describe in a very simple fashion (just like a DVD player) I would pay at least 100 dollars for it.


I don't know about the rest of you but I would be willing to fork over money for a solid DVD player.

"Sure it can be written or adapted, it is just a lot of work."

It seems like you are a very smart guy Marcelo I think you could definitely do it. For what it is worth I nominate you to bear this burden.

Does anyone second that?

I'm don't really know much about Linux or software in general. Ok I don't know anything about them, but why can't a program be written that plays DVD files stored on my PC like a standard software DVD player? Could a Linux software DVD player be modified to play on the ROKU? Like I said I don't know...

Going back to my original question is there a reason why some else hasn't written a programs that plays DVD like normal. Is it too difficult? If nothing else I would like the option of chapters, FF & RW, and audio switching. Anycrap I don't really know much about this stuff so any help would be ...

700 DVD! Geez that's a lot of porn.
