Watch downloades series on tv

Hi guys,

I've got series that atm i watch on my pc screen but I'd like to watch them on my tv but I'm wondering what the cheapest solution would be to be able to do that? In the past I just copied the files to my laptop and then connected it with a cable on my tv but my laptop is broken..

Grtz x

edit!!!: is it somehow possible to make a wireless connection between http://www.wdc.com/en/products/Products.asp?DriveID=735 and my pc?

usb stick + dvd player?
media player(streamer)?(preferable with LAN+hdd)
yeah I got a dvd player with an usb entrance but it's only for photo's, it doesn't support movieshizzles

media player? what's that? It's kinda impossible to connect a lan cable to my tvplace
Parent
stupid question, but did you actually try it?
my dvd player is also only supposed to show pictures and stuff (thats what they officialy advertise with) but it runs all kind of movies from usb stick
Parent
yeah I did :p I connected my external HDD but they didn't show up
Parent
hdd's dont work, just usb sticks
Parent
hmm I'll try that
Parent
just an example: (there are better ones - didnt look @ this one)

the HDD is broke, I bought the laptop for 15€ and it worked for 2 years. i'm not gonna put money in it anymore :p the screen is kinda fucked up too, it always automatically falls in 180° so I had to put it against a wall etc :D
Parent
15€ LOL

It's in a different room im guessing, Have a look at the WD TV's well worth the moneys!
hmm now I have to think about how I can connect it to my router =/ is it somehow possible to make a wireless connection between that and my pc?
Parent
yea you can buy a wireless dongle for the WD TV, but im not 100% sure how its done, but i know it can be for sure!
Parent

just buy something like the xtreamer+wifi, done. I prefer that one above the WD.
website www.xtreamer.net Firmware will be opensource in the future from that one. Its also pretty populair, if you want more information http://gathering.tweakers.net/forum/list_messages/1375688.
