wMVP is simple to install: Install the MediaMVP Server application on your PC and connect wMVP to your TV set. wMVP has a Network Setup program to allow you to choose your wireless Access Point or a wired router, hub or switch. In just a few minutes you’ll be able to play your PC based music, videos or digital pictures on your TV set!

Navigate through your PC media from your TV set, selecting MPEG or DivX® videos, individual music titles to listen to or digital pictures to watch. You can simultaneously play a picture slideshow while listening to a complete music
program. Or play a music playlist (MusicMatch, Winamp and Windows Media playlists supported).

Play MPEG movies on your TV set. Create MPEG videos on your PC with Hauppauge's WinTV (optional), then play those videos on your TV set through wMVP. wMVP works with videos recorded with any WinTV! wMVP also
supports most standard MPEG-1, MPEG-2 and DivX® videos.

wMVPs remote control gives you complete control over your PC based media. Pause, fast forward and rewind through videos, plus play and pause music and digital picture shows. You can adjust the audio volume from wMVPs remote control, so you won’t need to use your TV's remote control!

If your laptop has no A/V outputs, you can still plug it to a TV set using wMVP! wMVP can be connected directly to your PC or laptop. All you need is an Ethernet cross over cable (available at most computer shops) to directly connect wMVP with your laptop.

Technically speaking:
wMVP is a Linux based digital media receiver. Inside wMVP is a high performance IBM PowerPC processor and a hardware MPEG audio/video decoder for MPEG-1/-2 videos and MP3 music.

wMVP receives digital media from the PC via the LAN, decodes the media and outputs audio/video to the TV set through the SCART connector. Digital pictures are software decoded by wMVP’s processor.

The MediaMVP Server application creates menus on the PC, which are transmitted over the LAN to the wMVP where it provides the on-TV-screen display. wMVP receives commands from the supplied remote control, and sends these commands to the PC server, where the remote control commands are executed.
