Can this machine stream recorded HD programmes to DLNA compliant TVs / set top boxes in other rooms or only SD material ?
I need some advice on how to stream
from the humax hrd2000 downstairs to a non smart tv upstairs.
the tv upstairs has hdmi sockets also there is internet available
wifi or via the power socket.I have seen on ebay xmbc media boxes
for sale,would one these be ok.
[only interested sd
Adding to my previous post i have used my computer upstairs
connected to the upstairs tv using windows media player which
worked quite good. I tried also samsung allshare which would
let me copy files and then play but not stream,but as i asked
i want something smaller than a computer.

Why no offer of advice to help me with my problem of watching my
Humax hrd 2000[downstairs] on my non internet tv [upstairs].
I have internet available upstairs in the bedroom and have streamed
from the humax downstairs to my computer upstairs quite ok,
but i do not want to use my computer.
I want to buy a device which will pick up the signal from the Humax
which i can connect to my bedroom tv, such as a now tv or roku adaptor.
I dont know if these devices would do the job or is there something
better, other than another computer.Sorry if i have not explained
my problem very well and sorry for the duplicate post

A tablet or smart phone with a hdmi out or other means of connecting to a TV will do what you want to do.
Other than that a networked media server like the WD TV LIVE should also work.
How geeky are you prepared to be?
You could get a RaspberryPi running XBMC (Raspbmc), which will stream the DLNA/UPnP content from your Humax.
I’ve just set mine up and it works up to a point, however I would need to get an additional codec file to get the SD video to stream (only getting audio at the moment)
Lots of information on this thread…
RasperryPi – XBMC thread : post 108 on page 6 details the required codecs, post 51 on page 3 has some comprehensive setup details.
You might be able to pick up a second hand HD-FOX T2 on eBay quite reasonably. As the software version is quite old, iPlayer is not working, but it is supposed to be getting an update. It is a good DLNA client, has HDMI output (1080p) and if you plug in a USB hard drive you can use it as a single tuner PVR. The software is very similar to the HDR-2000T so you will find it easy to use.
Thanks for the replies and advice, I think my best and easiest way
is to buy one of the A grade hrd 2000t.thanks again
