Trying to find out what the best options are for DVD .iso's with full menu support.

Also, Wake-On-LAN, anyone know which streamer do WOL? Even better, DVD menu's and WOL?

Cheers

Basically all Realtek based players have dvd iso support with full menus. As far as WOL goes, I've never seen mentioned this feature in any review, so, i don't know. Why is this important for you?

maybe he wants to wake up his player from work, so he can play the videos remotely.

possibly to annoy neighbours, or to give the impression that the house is currently occupied to decieve potential burgers.

Not wake my player, wake my PC/server from the player. I don't want my PC running 24/7, just when the player requests media from it. Works well with systems like the squeezebox - when I try to play a file that's on my pc the squeezebox sends a "magic packet" over the network and my PC is really from sleep in about 3 seconds. When I have finished playing music the PC goes back to sleep. All automatic. I know some streamers do this, but can't remember which ones. It was one of the most requested features on the offcial NMT forums but I don't know if it ever got implemented.
