Do you mean something like my Humax HD fox-T2 Freeview HD receiver, that that allows me to connect to my upstairs PC via a Wireless Network and I can play and watch videos stored on it on my main TV in the lounge. |

Is there much restriction on the types of video format it will play? And up to what res will it play? |

I think you'll find because the TV manufacturers failed to make a decent standard for streaming, your mileage will vary according to what TV set you buy, whether it actually works as the manufacturer claims it does. More often than not, it doesn't work, and the ASA etc. allow the manufacturers to get way with their claims that streaming video to the set works - when it actually doesn't I suggest looking into online web forums for sets you have in mind, and how much work it takes to get a specific item... computer or hard drive, to stream data to the TV. Hell, TV manufacturers failed to standardise the frame rate for HD, so we still have the bull**** of PAL / NTSC releases, made worse when you make video and send it to a friend abroad. The manufacturers are lazy *******s. |
