    Hi all,
    I just did a search but didn't find what I was after.
    i had always streamed movies from my pc to my tv via vuze and my ps3 and it worked most of the time. unfortunately my ps3 is broken so I need suggestions for an alternative.
    My Pc and tv are in different rooms and i am unable to wire them up easily.
    My current set up is to stick the movie on a usb and then connect a laptop to the tv via HDMI and watch this way.
    I have upc horizon box but am unsure that I can use it in the same way as the ps3.
    any help would be appreciated.

    You could use a Raspberry Pi running xbmc.
    There are phone apps you can use as a remote.

    Cheapest way would probably be a chromecast

    Get chromecast and install plex and it
    Will work basically like a personalised version of Netflix which is pretty cool
