PC Based Media Centre

    Hi All,

    Thanks in advance for any help on this topic.

    In a nutshell - I want to set up a media centre in my living room.

    I will have my PC to the left side of the room, and my LCDTV over the fireplace.

    I want to have the PC connected to the TV via HDMI and then it will be also hooked up to my two monitors via DVI. This is so I can watch stuff on the TV and also to use the new STEAM TV interface.

    I also have a WD Media Hub with a network port. This plugs into the TV by the second HDMI port.

    Ok - so here comes the questions.

    If I want to have other media (tablet / TV) elsewhere, is there anyway I can bring it into that little network circle, or is there a better way of linking everything together? I'm trying to keep it as neat and fast as possible, but also want it downstairs so that my kids can use it and I don't have to go upstairs to use the PC.

    Has anyone done anything similar - how did you find it? I have a spare USB network device as well.
