    Just wondering if you found any way to do this? I'm afraid I don't have a clue, but it sounds interesting.

    I'm afraid you are going to have to spend some money to make this work. The easiest solution is to get a small PC to do the job.

    I use an Acer Revo as a media center for my TV, it is a lowly atom based nettop pc but it has an nvidia ion chip, so it handles HD video easily. I picked it upfor €150 in Harvey Normans in a sale last year.

    If you have a PS3, you can stream Sopcast to it from a PC elsewhere in the house using PS3 Media Server. http://ps3mediaserver.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=11

    You can do similar if you have an XBox 360. http://www.techhackz.com/2009/05/how-to-stream-sopcast-to-your-xbox-360.html

    After that, I'm all out of suggestions.

    Would homeplugs be of any help? I never heard of sopcast:confused:
