yu don't need VLC or any other servers. Just put your PC on the network and play the files on the DM.
Networkbrowser is where you start .....
(Don't forget to share the directories where your media is)

wow i didnt know that about the 8000 mate.
so the 8000 is fast and powerfull enough not to have to use VLC,yet another reason for me to drool after one.maybe one day when im rich and famous.ian.

Plays *most* formats, but doesn't play .WMA
with the 'new' DTS passthrough - you have to have an external amp to get audio - but at least it IS DTS.
