Streaming Video from PC to TV

My Popcorn Hour A-300 has finally given up the ghost and I was looking for advice on the best way to stream video from my PC to my TV (through a surround sound amp)

Many thanks

Re: Streaming Video from PC to TV

HDMI cables have become considerably cheaper - does your amp have an HDMI thru?

Re: Streaming Video from PC to TV

Do you have any streaming devices?

I have a Roku Ultra (2022) box plugged into my receiver via HDMI that then outputs to my TV. There is a "Roku Media Player" channel that connects to my Window built in DLNA server: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...9-25baea165abe

I also have a TiVo Stream 4K plugged into the same receiver via HDMI that I can than "(Chrome)Cast" to, but that seems a bit less efficient, processing-wise.

Plex or Jellyfin might be what you're looking for.
