Hi Guys,
I don`t mean to re hash this if its already been talked about so, if so I apoligze in advance, but I would like to get some clarity on this.
I just picked up the WD TV Live and realized that the Live hub had the DLNA “server” support., so I could stream to my DLNA TV’s in the house.
I mentioned this to a friend who brought up an excellent question which I need to get an answer to before I confirm which one to get.
I have 2 Samsung LED TV’s (1 upstairs and 1 Downstairs), both with DLNA. I also just picked up a WD 4Tb my book USB 3.0 external hardrive, which will be plugged into the hub.
With the DLNA Media Center Server feature, and with my external drive pluged into the hub via usb, can I stream the contents of that 4TB external hardrive, to any of the DLNA TV’s on the network, or does that featire only apply to the contents of the 1TB internal drive on the unit itself?
I obviously am trying to creating a very simple media server setup, which I can slowly expand later.
I also am trying to keep it a simple setup as I intend to take the hub and “media server” to my cabin, at the lake (only the one TV), and leave it up there for the summer, only to bring it home for the winter and with my 2 tv home setup watch movies on either tv.
I dont have allot of room at the cabin, so I can
t do the computer media server thing, and I am trying to keep a simple and consistent setup for both places, taking advantage of the second tv at home in the winer.
Any help is greatly apreciated,
Thanks,
