This program is pretty neat-o. I hope it works with the Wii Opera browser. If it works, I don't have to sit at my desk when I watch "rented" movies now. I can just have them stream to my Wii and watch them on my tv.

Me too... so I have to set up a webserver myself? or does it include some sort of http daemon?

Help? no readme file!

Yeah, I was having problems too setting this up, but click the "WiiCR" link that's in the first line in the first post and it will take you to a wikipedia link that gives step by step on how to set up and test. But you do have to download and install more software. The links to the software you need are on that page tho.

Also the link that is posted in the first post to download the file is wrong. The correct file is on the wikipedia page.
