Is it possible to stream from my Mac to my Wii?

Question

I've got a lot of ripped movies and TV shows backed-up on an external drive connected to an iMac. The original media is now in storage (loft) to keep them safe.

I'd like to stream my this media from my iMac (bedroom/"office") to my Wii (livingroom) so I'm not being anti-social with family. Both are connected to the same home network via a Linksys WRT54G router running DD-WRT.

Is this possible?

What software will I need to do this?

Solution

Wii Media Center X allows you to stream certain types of pictures, music, videos and files from your computer (where the server is running) to your Nintendo Wii.

mind you, the video capabilities of the Wii are rather limited, flash is as good as it gets.

Can't seem to find an actual download for Wii Media Center X. Their site bounces to another website without the file. Will keep hunting.
