of course you can, through media servers like tversity or if you want, you could use NMTs (Popcorn Hour etc.) :)

Personally I've used Popcorn and am utilizing it to watch my HD stuff on the telly. But I do remember some problems with different encoding profiles (something like 4.1 or 5.1), but am not too clear with that :S

Still it works most of the time though!

i stream all mine from my server to my ps3, it handles the lot, any encoding of picture/sound and goes like a dream. i use this http://ps3mediaserver.blogspot.com/ fantastic app.

Hands down Popcorn Hour. Best media tank I have owned, it plays everything. I went with the A110 as it supports DTS audio pass through which is good for someone like me who does not have a receiver capable of on-board DTS decoding.

Popcorn Hour 110 user here. The best HD player I have ever tried. I find it better than watching the movies through my computer using my TV as monitor.

I have heard decent things about the WD. One drawback of it though is it is not networkable and only accepts external HDD's. If you are not worried about either of those than that would be a very cost effective HD player.

That's the one I thought of getting because of the price. But then I started reading a lot on the Popcorn Hour and even though it's not cheap, it has great features and the support is not that bad. New firmware comes out every 2-3 months.

I went for the PCH-110 because it comes with Wireless N. But I don't think it's worth it. Oh yeah the 110 model also comes with HDM 1.3.

Anyways you can't really stream HD movies, not even connected with a Network cable. It will lag. I just have it connected with wire and upload all content to the internal HDD via ftp.

I think the WD TV HD Media Player. Is a good alternative though.
