From what I've read in the specs sheets, you should be able to run the EVA straight off your NAS. :-)

Categories: EVA 8000 Installation and Setup Setting up EVA Connecting my Devices
Hi all
I am thinking about buying one of these devices but I wanted to get a little info first
Here is my current setup
Pinnacle Showcenter connected to pc over wireless
nslu2 nas device storing media
in this current set up I have to have the PC on all the time, as this runs the web server and the database for the media. I have played around with running swiss center directly off my nas device but this hasn't worked very well
so I have a few questions
1) it says in the documentation that a pc is needed, does this pc run the media databse or is this stored on the eva device? i.e do I have to have a pc always connected for Eva to work
2) can the eva run just by directly streaming from a nas device?
I am hoping I can just link the eva to my nas device and stream off there but I need this to be confirmed before i buy one
Cheers all
Mike

If its just for viewing your storage on your NAS then yes no need for the PC. However if you want to watch youtube videos then you need your PC on...
I have my PC off and it pulls all the information for my movies via my NAS... Image, Title, Director, Cast, etc...
Cheers
