I have a Sony KDL-46W4000 TV which I want to use in a DLNA configuration. Because it doesn't conform to this standard, I thought that I would buy a Sony SMP-N200 media streamer. However, because I also want to buy a BluRay player I thought that if I bought a Sony BDP S780, I could use this as the DLNA client and connect my non-network media direct to this player.
Is my logic correct or is there some limit to this configuration? Incidentally, I also intend on buying a Sony STR-DH820 amplifier, however I would consider the Sony STR-DH1020 if necessary. I suppose the question to be answered is can the SMP-N200 do any more than the DLNA capabilities of the BDP S780.
My source for most of the films that I want to watch would be a USB/Sata external hard disk or a Windows 7 PC. I have access to both ethernet and wifi network points.
Thanks,
