rokulabs.com has a media adapter that apparently will straem VOB files
ripped from you dvd's. AFAIK it is the only media adapter to work with VOB
files (does anyone else know of a player that does VOB?)

There are several options for divx and xvid encoded stuff, gateway even has
their connected player with does it all over a network and has a dvd player
built in. Only downfall is that is sucks to encode all your stuff to divx.

I really would like to see something open source for dvd vob files. Maybe
the slim devices folks are up for a challenge?

Note that dvd streaming doesnt work to swift if at all over wireless. But a
100 lan would work great.

Anyone else have any ideas?
