Media center pc

djwarcr · Feb 19, 2014

Hi community
I would like to use my gaming pc as a media center and stream to the other rooms, but I don’t want anything expensive like buying new TVs.
I would like to stream via wireless internet, so instead of getting new TVs , can I use any other device to attach it to my old TVs so they can stream from my pc, maybe a player or any device you may know.
What would you recommend?
Thank you

Does your gaming PC have Windows Media Center? If so, you can get a Media Center extender. An Xbox 360 can also be used as a media center extender.

Here's an example of some wireless media center extenders.

I use an Xbox 360 over a wired connection for my TV in my living room, but I've never done it over Wi-Fi.

Yes actually I forgot to say that, My pc has win 7 and it does have WMC
I also have a PS3..not an xbox fan
Im going to check out your links , thank you

Edit
I was reading the reviews, but ppl complainig they play few file formats only.
those extenders get a really bad feedback

I've never used one of those extenders, but the Xbox 360 works great as an extender over a wired connection.
