Streaming from computer to Blu-Ray.
0
Need help figuring out if there is a way to stream what's showing on my computer directly to my BDVN790W Blu-ray. Can't stream it using the video streaming feature because it's a MKV file. Is there any way to do this?

Would you be able to mirror a livestream on your pc of something that is in .ts format or some other format to your theater system?

The only video formats It seems I can stream to it are in .avi .mp4 and .mpeg. Though I'm not sure I'm understanding exactly what your saying.

Well if it can use .mp4 then ignore what I said. It can probably use .ts but thats irrelevant at this point then.
Grab the latest static build and use this command in the command line.
ffmpeg.exe -i directoryforvideoinput -acodec copy -vcodec copy outputvideo.mp4
Yes I know there are GUIs out there for remuxing to mp4 but honestly they all suck and are a billion years less user friendly than this from my experience. Unfortunately this probably will not work with softsubbed mkv and 10bit video as I am pretty sure there is no hardware support for it yet.
If you want to stream 10bit files or softsubbed mkv you got to encode them on the fly or encode them yourself and thats a completely different beast. Give this a quick try and see if it works for you.

This is why I have a computer connected to my home theater. I just stream videos\music to that computer from the main in the bedroom.
Honestly you could build one for $100-$200 and save you more hassle.

(゜。゜) Most of that went way over my head. It's a pain, but for now I've decided to just hook up my PC directly to my TV w/ a hdmi cable. Though it cuts off the display a little and I can't seem to fix it.
