I gave the Splashdot streamer a try but I didn't find where it could be set to stream files
instead of the desktop. It looks like I could put my files onto ASUS's server (or the
service that ASUS has hired for this) and then be able to access them there, but I would
not like to do that.
It does a great job from what I could see as a way to see and control a PC from the Pad.
I tried to play a video but the actual video window of the player remained blank. I could
see the player program fine but not the video overlay that would be the selected video
playing.
A DLNA server would stream the A/V file to any DLNA enabled device or player program/
client. This can be over an ethernet network or a wireless network. TVs and projectors
often come with this capability now a days. You can get NAS servers with DLNA, that is
one way for it to qualify as a "Media Server".
Luck;
