My thoughts are unclear because I don't know exactly what the DMX-NV1 is capable of! I think the computer must "convert" the video into something the the DMX-NV1 understands? Or my computer then acts like a "server" for my tv? Also, I'm told that some tv station websites use their own media player, but other sites require the media player in my computer? I've been able to watch material from the "Adobe" media player on the computer, (it does not tell me what the source is), but I can't get DMX-NV1 to recognize the data. Again, the sketchy instructions furnished by Sony speak of the "XAMPP" program, which is where I get the "server" notion. I have no programming and/or setup options on the DMX, other than to have enabled the "pc to tv" -- which has been done.
