[QUOTE="akoppes, post: 787934, member: 81975"] Hey all, Calling me a novice with computers is a bit of an understatement, so I need your help. I'm trying to setup my home theater media center... I have: An 50inch plasma A macbook An Xbox 360 A WD 500gb harddrive I'm looking to setup a way to stream to my TV downloaded and ripped video/music, which is currently on my HDrive. I understand that my mac has Front Row (which I would ideally use) and my Xbox has (Windows Media Center). Is there anyway this can be done using the equipment I have listed? If not, what do I need to purchase to accomplish this (I would like to avoid a Mac Mini and Airport Express and use what I currently have, but if this the better route than I will go with it). I'm big on simplicity and having everything work flawlessly (or as perfectly as possible). Also, the majority of the movies/tv shows I currently have are in .mkv Thanks for the help! [/QUOTE]
