Hey all, just thought Id throw out the suggestion that it would be very beneficial to see a function that resets sliders and knobs by double clicking them. Im not any kind of programmer otherwise I would contribute this. Sad face.

I think she's into the fat man, If she asks you to get naked and run into a propeller...I think you should decline.
It may get her off for a short while, but you'll be limited to enjoying it with only 2/3 your genitalia.

MrRaza, there's plenty of hardware/software capable of streaming over your LAN to a video device, all you need is an appropriate Google search (else this Wikipedia entry ought to educate you). The question is... do you have sufficient bandwidth to stream DVD-quality video? I would guess that 95% of residential Americans, or even business travelers at hotels, do not. I pulled that number out of my ass, but it seems somewhat logical. You'd need a connection able to upload around 1.3MiB/sec... most residential and hotel class connections can't.

I believe VLC has the capability to do what you want (play a video stream video over an IP network), but I have never personally used it. Again, you probably do not have the bandwidth required to stream straight from the DVD source, so you'd have to make sure that the broadcasting computer is powerful enough to reencode the video into something a little (a lot) smaller on-the-fly. Otherwise, you could just pre-encode the video the day before you decide to watch it with your girlfriend, but that also has a chance of giving you spoilers.

In any case, I hope this helps.

I can write programs. Can you right them?
