Best Image For Local Media Playback?

[shinyguru]

Hello everyone

I've not lurked here for a while, but I managed to get a D-Box really cheap so I snapped it up and came back here for the latest gossip - so now I know all about Nagra 3 and why I got the box so cheap :-(

The box works though so I shall get some use from it, but when Bristol finally switches off I was wondering what would be the best image to use just for streaming media from my local server and the net.

I know computers fairly well, so I can probably sort out most issues, but I am new to the D-Box world so in that respect I am a bit of a n00b - I would welcome suggstions, even if it is to point me at appropriate reading.

Thanks

Using VLC as a streaming server?

prolly best to use ultraphat apocalypse image and an older dbox compatible vlc installed on PC

0.8.6 no later!

Old Version of VLC Player 0.8.6 Download - OldApps.com

NOW READ UP ON VLC DBOX STREAMING!

Thanks guys - looks like I can get some fun out of the box even when N3 hits

Not a total waste of ?30 if it keeps me quiet for a few nights :-)
