There was some talk years ago about a VLC plugin for the 200s which would allow you to stream a .avi from a PC, but there were varying reports of success with it. Generally speaking though, streaming was mainly the other way 200S -> PC
having a bit of trouble getting my mutant 200s running pli jade to stream from pc.
I have VLC 0.86i running with http interface set up. Movieplayer installed on 200s and can cursor through the pc's directory structure and select a movie (avi) to play.
However, I get "buffering: finished 0%" displayed on teh 200s and "unreconised format..." on teh pc.
What am I doing wrong??
thanks

Thanks for your reply.
Yes there was some sort of plugin but nowadays there is a plugin called "movieplayer". I have had it working on a PC to DM500 some time back
but that dm500 has gone to god along with my memory of how I did it.
I have followed the instructions from teh net, and as far as I can see, the files are able to be selected from within teh mutants (and also my dm7020) FILE menu option and I can browse around on the PC file system and even select a file to play, but as stated, that is were it stops. I have tried several AVI's just make sure it isnt a codec issue which it isnt.
The mutant wants to play it and the PC starts to stream but stops straight away and reports an error with the file, any file.
regards

It might be worth asking on denktenk if anyone has got it working.
