I can understand wanting 1 ring to rule them all, but having specialized devices has been the solution for a while now. 1 = Server 2 = NAS 3 = HTPC or Server w/ dongle 4 = HTPC again (any XBMC variant, with a receiver for audio) 5 = XBMC remote apps, I like Boxee's remote for iPhone 6 = FTP, VLC broadcasting, VNC 7 = FTP 8 = Capture Card, streaming to mobile = VLC/justin.tv http://apiwiki.justin.tv/mediawiki/index.php/VLC_Broadcasting_API http://apiwiki.justin.tv/mediawiki/index.php/VLC_Broadcastin... 9 = NAS rsync for backups This is all tech that's been around for a while.
