    Media Server

    Home -> Geeky Stuff -> Home Theater



    UPDATE: 12/1/2009 - I am streaming Christmas CD's from my website. You can click on the little radio in the bottom right-hand corner of this page to start a song. I'm putting up different CD every day.

    The advances in streaming technology have allowed home theater fanatics to move their home theater PC from their living room to another area of the house. I run my multi-purpose server from my basement. While my HR20-700 Directv receiver does have medai streaming capabilities, I tend to use my PS3 for streaming medai to my home theater.

    Media Server:

    - Dell Poweredge SC440 Server
    - Windows 2008 Server (Standard Edition)
    - 8 gigabytes of RAM
    - Intel Core 2 Quad Processor Q6700 2.66GHz 1066MHz 8MB LGA775 EM64T CPU

    Software

    - Playstion Media Server (for streaming Blu Ray and other media)
    - TVersity (hopefully to be replaced soon)
    - Orb (for streaming XM radio to my blackberry and pool radio)
    - Replay A/V (for recording my favorite XM shows)

    Network

    - Category 6 network cable
    - Netgear WNR3500 Gigabit Cable Modem
