Hi, I am sure there is a formal name for what I am asking but I am a relative "noob" to home networking and media servers. I am sure this question is common, but I am not sure if it's even possible. We have Cablevision and that's not changing in the foreseeable future. I know they'd prefer we had a second cable box and DVR in the bedroom, but it just makes no sense as we watched very little live TV to begin with, so we only have one box (we used to have multiple boxes and never watched them).
1) We have an HD box in the livingroom, which has an external drive connected to it. Is there anyway to watch the recordings on the Cablebox/External drive in the bedroom-i.e. share them?
We don't care to record or download them in anyway, just "see them" in another room.
2) In the bedroom there is a PS3, as one of our BD players. I see something called "Find 'Media Servers'" in the menu, but I guess I need some other gizmo, to share stuff between all of our devices, providing they are connected to our home network?
Thanks all
DB
