I'm not clear on what you mean by "stream" movies?
Kris, by "streaming" I mean watching a movie via wi-fi connection
from my G5 in the other room via 802.11.n 5ghz. Is "streaming" the
wrong word? and thanks for the great comeback! Jeff
Are you watching images? I do this all time e from a G5 PM via
wireless to a TiBook 500. But I mount the image on the TiBook.
Streaming -- a connection via IP to a server (another computer)
running a real-time streaming software package. Most often this uses
http as the transport protocl. The point is that the server software
priorititzed so as to push the data at full speed.
Sounds like what you'all are doing is just feeding a player some sort
of afp or smb or http url and hoping the general server daemon
magically manages to push fast enough.
