how to stream video to the wii

[teamo]

Hi,
I am pretty new to the wii. Mostly the kids play games on it but I have heard that it will stream video from the computer. I have a wired/wireless network with three desktops and the wii console hardwired to the network over cat 5e cables. I would like to send video from a computer over the network to the wii. Two of the desktops have windows 7 and the third has vista. They are all 64 bit operating systems. Thanks Jim.

What you are referring to is using Netflix movies, tv show streaming from the wii or
unless you are talking about accessing the internet channel and watching youtube videos??

i don't think so. an xbox 360 can, but what you described is not an advertised feature of the wii. if it was possible, it would be a modded wii and we don't wanna touch that with a fifty foot pole :lol: the wii's best use for that kind of stuff is running a simple flash movie, say youtube, and using the pc for something else at the same time.
