    Hi, remember me?

    About three months ago, had trouble getting my satellite dish aligned to my receiver. In the end I found out that my wife’s cousin had Sky so took the box around, and it was dead as a dodo.

    Replacement arrived next day from John Lewis (great service), and bingo, I’m up and running.

    You tube pairing – absolutely amazed!

    One niggle at the moment – I’m new to using media servers (using WMP), and I am having issues getting it to appear in the Media Share portal.

    I’ve switched on streaming media in WMP, and last night I successfully managed to get the server to appear to the hummy (and play a video), but this morning when I tried to show my wife, the media server just refused to appear. I had checked that my broadband connection was good on the hummy.

    Router is choosing IP address for the box I think.

    And a wii bit off topic – I’m on BT broadband so I’m looking to stream free BT sport to my non-DLNA TV – I presume I would need some kind of Portal like the you tube one to do it through the hummy. I researched the net and found that I could access the internet on the wii, but it appears that premium video content from BT sport requires silverlight which isn’t available on the opera browser wii uses.

    If I use the BT Sport app, how could I pair this up to my TV – is it possible? Any other ideas?

    Many thanks,

    Alan..

    Aha! Dig a little deeper – my xoom 2 media server has an HDMI TV out port.

    So I’ll have to buy a cable, but any nocost wireless options?

    Still looking …
