I have a Windows Home Server setup with a ton of media but mostly in 720 or above in .mkv format. Perfect for my wdtv unit and my i5 laptop but my wife's HP G50 laptop has trouble with some of the .mkv files.
She is wireless so most of the time copies the .mkv to her laptop and then views. Some of the .mkv really kill the G50 with stuttering and lag etc.
On my BB Playbook I have streaming software that lets me run a server on one of the networked machine. I run a app on the tablet it stream wireless and transcodes buffering out every movie flawlessly.
Is there a easy way to do this for Windows 8 on her laptop?
I also have a xbox on the network.
