You mean like websites, or software to stream content off your computer?

For the latter, I'd go for Orb. (http://www.orb.com/gamers/wii.htm)

For the former, Youtube works.  akudood;

content


yeah they release the mac version of orb earlier.

Is there any linux utility since i have my videos on my desktop, though i can just mount the ftp connection on my mac and stream it from that


how does orb work do you just access them from the browser and does it work over a local network? i don't want to have to upload the video over the internet when i can just do it on the same intranet

From what I know, you install the software on your computer give it access to your media, and then you log into your account on their website via the Wii Internet Channel, and it will stream the content off your computer.

If you mod your wii there are programs to let you do it
soft mods are easy.
