Home network

Right now I have my consoles in my living room, they are connected to my home network, allowing me to watch movies through them. Through my xbox 360, for example. I'm planning on buying a new tv and relocating my video games to another room, so I won't be able to use my living room tv for movies from my network. Is there some kind of A/V box that can connect to my network to the tv in the living room? Or a specific television that can connect to the network on it's own and be able to recognize video files and the like?

    There are tons out there.

    the moxi dvr
    an xbox 360
    the ps3
    a popcorn hour
    the new boxee box
    many new blu-ray players

    etc etc.

    Do you know what file format your media is stored in? identify that, and then find the player that best fits your price range and supports those formats.

    edit: If your price range includes 500+ dollars, consider a home theatre pc or "htpc" this would be an almost infinitely flexible, likely awesome option.

    The Boxee is looking very very promising.
