I have a WDTV Live Plus and I use it to watch Netflix and DVD ISOs. Now I'd like to use it to watch the TV shows recorded on my Windows Media Center 7 machine. All of the TV programs are recorded as copy freely so that's not a problem. I know that the WDTV can't view WTV files natively. But I was wondering if any of the media server programs like Plex, PlayOn, Subsonic, Serviio, etc can transcode WTV files on the fly into a form the WDTV can use. I don't care about scheduling, deleting, etc recordings. I just want to the view them. My media server's hardware is a 3.8 ghz AMD A10-5800K APU running Windows 7 Home Premium x64 with 8 GB of memory.
 
Plex works...kinda. It transcodes the files just fine, but it doesn't pick up the metadata, I think its because of the naming convention that WMC uses.
