i had this idea and im sure its been done before. Basically i would like to be able to display all video files to 2 TVs. These video files would all be stored on a server. so this includes dvd rips, divx, avi, xvid , mpeg 2 etc.....
there would need to be some sort of menu interface or GUI on the TV to choose a specific video file from the server. navigating will be done with a remote control.
*can 2 TVs access the same video file at the same time?
here is the link to a diagram i made http://img241.imageshack.us/img241/5334/idealz1.jpg
looking at the picture ive drawn up, and based on what i want done, what would device A and B have to be?
it would have to be something that could decode ANY video file type and output to the TV. is something like this already out?
I would also like to add DVR funcitonallity to this setup.
Where device A or B would send the TV video to the server and save it in whatever format. all done with a remote.
*is there software for this type of thing?
