Since there has not been any video streaming development within MP and it is more of a "mind game" curently I thought that maybe we should look to see what the future could hold wiht other major companies pushing digital media. The reason I say this is due to an online article ("Why the media centre PC is destined for the home office") I read this morning on CNET. One sentence popped out to me - it was "Shortly, Intel will release a range of "digital media adapters", which connect to your existing home theatre components (e.g. your TV, stereo system, etc) and can stream content wirelessly from any Viiv-certified PC."

That caused me to search on Intel's web site for the key words "digital media adapters" and I found the following web page: "Adding Your TV and Stereo to Your Wireless Network" under their Digital Home.

Should we look at what Intel is doing and how it will affect MediaPortal?
